“Tactile” range of crosses
Silver, 9ct gold, 18ct gold & platinum
I love playing with my jewellery.
I discovered that lots of other people do too, particularly when it has up to 6 different moving parts!
A great friend asked me to design an unusual cross for him to give to his wife, after a family bereavement. I came up with a prototype of a cross that appears quite simple, but when touched, unexpectedly rotates in the fingers, thereby giving comfort and promoting a sense of calm to the wearer.
When the design was approved, I discovered just how tricky it is to retain the full movement in the cross, when actually making it!
This has become a popular design and can be made in any of the aforementioned metals
– a particular favourite being two-
(I kept the prototype for myself and gained agreement from my friend to repeat the design for other customers)
