We are contemporary artisan Goldsmiths, approaching our work with a combination of artist's eye, (Jan,) and traditional craftsmanship, (Tom.) As brother and sister, we have a rare partnership and a distinctive style. Our work is mostly influenced by Nature in all it's varied patterns, movement and colours. We blend traditional craft skills with modern technology, incorporating the best of both worlds.
