Additional requests: “Make it one third the width, set it with my diamonds, supply nine more – similar and set the ruby and following the Indian ones, create intermittent punched patterns of your making, set my opal also”.
We fabricated the solid 18ct yellow gold bangle by hand and managed to deepen the colour to match her 22ct ones.
