http://trulybespoke.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 19, 2012. The second in the series of Dais by Sonja Lennon and Christian Ammann. Can be seen here. And it includes some beautiful visuals with our Embrace-3 ring. Links to this post. Studio visit in the Design Tower. It's been a while, our blog-playing has been distracted with Tumblr and Instagram. And mainly reading the fascinating exploits of others,. So back in the saddle and we highly recommend checking out the current Studio Visit feature on the Design Tower blog with Alan Ardiff.

Handmade fine jewellery by Da Capo Goldsmiths: February 2011
http://trulybespoke.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 10, 2011. How little is just enough? As the antithesis of the previous post, how much can a design or shape be reduced so as to perform it's function, and still be refined, or elegant, or have integrity as a design? We asked ourselves how much could a diamond ring be reduced to a pure form? How many steps in designing and making a ring were adding degrees of complication that could be removed? Another thought was to shape the outline of the plate to be an egg shape and to flow from the...

Friday, April 15, 2011. There is something I really like about pink sapphires,. Links to this post. Wednesday, April 6, 2011. Another set from the Embrace series. The main ring is in white gold to compliment the clear Topaz, and is very geometric and crisply defined. The second ring is in yellow gold with a channel of Pink Sapphires to add a contrast of warmth and softness. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Handmade fine jewellery by Da Capo Goldsmiths: January 2011
http://trulybespoke.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Happy new year all! Back to the surface after a few well deserved days off. Every so often we get unusual requests or commissions. Sometimes these arrive to us as ideas that are fully formed, sometimes the person arrives to us simply with an open mind and a kernel of an idea or a starting point and we then discover it together. A lot of fun to make. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Two goldsmiths working by Dublin's Grand Canal Basin. View my complete profile.

Handmade fine jewellery by Da Capo Goldsmiths: Bellboy
http://trulybespoke.blogspot.com/2012/05/bellboy.html
Thursday, May 17, 2012. Found this really nice site this morning,. Some lovely attention to simple shape and very clean detail. I love the form of the chair, and the clean lines and corner detail on the blocks. But that's just us being picky. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Handmade fine jewellery by Da Capo Goldsmiths: October 2010
http://trulybespoke.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 21, 2010. We like that there is a smooth visual line right the way through the diamonds, unbroken by metal as would be the norm in a more traditional setting. We are really looking forward to seeing the wedding bands and what direction they may go in to complete the set. Links to this post. Wednesday, October 20, 2010. Some of these have been commissioned by our customers while others have begun purely as an exercise on our part and then found their owners afterwards. One thing they...

Handmade fine jewellery by Da Capo Goldsmiths: December 2010
http://trulybespoke.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 23, 2010. One of our most popular designs and a principle of minimalism that we find ourselves constantly returning to in one form or another. In future posts we'll show some of the many variations on this principal design, and it's interesting how changing something small can have a huge effect on the finished ring, and how the wearers taste influences their ring at the design stage.

Handmade fine jewellery by Da Capo Goldsmiths: back once again...
http://trulybespoke.blogspot.com/2011/12/back-once-again.html
Thursday, December 15, 2011. It's been a while, work has been all consuming for the last few months. You get a chance to lift your head from your bench for a moment and realize that it's the end of December and christmas is only days away. We've been lucky enough to make some really unusual and inspiring pieces this year, and we've even managed to get a couple of them photographed before they flew out of the workshop. I will enjoy posting them over the coming months. This deserves to be seen/enjoyed, and...
