A customer came to us a few weeks ago needing inspiration for his Sapphire wedding anniversary. Now obviously he wanted sapphires, but other than that he was a little stuck.

After discussing what his wife likes, wears etc we came up with an unusual design ... a blackbird white gold brooch. This is the image that the customer liked and what we worked from:

I immediately set about designing this brooch as we were working to a tight schedule.

Once I had made the brooch itself we decided to add all the detailing of a Blackbird's feathers, there was only one engraver that I would trust to give us the level of detail that was required ... George Lukes. He is a master hand engraver and has won many awards over the years for his skill and detail.

For the sapphire we set a single blue sapphire for the birds eye. Stunning!

Our customer loves it and we got it made just in time for his wedding anniversary. Now all he has to worry about is how to smuggle it into the house without his wife noticing!!!

Product of the Day!!

Today I decided to feature a beautiful pair of earrings that I made a few years ago. I absolutely love these earrings which were inspired by Dream-catchers, I love the idea of catching bad dreams just like the BFG (you can tell what film I was watching with my children that day!). I wanted a visual representation of this and the image of the dream-catcher is perfect for this! 

Many native American dream-catchers have feathers hanging from the bottom of the loop and this is what I incorporated into my design, having complimenting coloured Tourmaline's hanging at different lengths with a final solid gold bead. This bringing in a beautiful movement to the earrings, so they are not just static, evoking the feathers swaying in the wind. 

Our dream-catcher earrings can be worn as a feature on special occasions, or dressed down with jeans and a t-shirt, or why not make them your festival essential? However you wear these earrings you are guaranteed to stand out from the crowd and they will be a talking point among all your friends!

Handmade in 18ct yellow gold and with a little diamond and hand chosen tourmaline's these earrings are truly special!

Why not treat yourself to the matching pendant?

All About Eve

Many clients on walking into one of stores comment on the lovely fragrant smell which greets them as they walk in. Unlike stores like Urban Outfitters where there signature smell hits you like a brick wall as you walk in stifling and over powering your sense, our signature smell is subtle and natural. We spent many months trying out different candles and diffusers from UK based companies trying to find one that complimented our store and our image. And finally we found one .... Herb Garden by All About Eve At Home. 

We burn the candles for a couple of hours a day in both of our stores giving them a subtle, natural and inviting smell. We even stock the candles in our stores and since doing this they have become a best seller (along with our jewellery of course!)

The scent was custom made by the owner of All About Eve at Home, Melanie, who after spending 20years in the retail business as a buyer for Harrods and The White Company, decided to open up her own store in Old Amersham, Buckinghamshire. 

Why not pop in and smell for yourself the beautiful scent of Herb Garden

Dazzle Rings

Taking inspiration from the opulent dazzling rings that celebrities and royalty alike have been showcasing recently Dominic Walmsley Jewellery have been busy designing stunning one-off commissions for our clientele. 


When designing and hand making a dazzling diamond ring it is important to get the proportions right whilst maintaining the feel and look that the customer desires. We pride ourselves on our ability to make people's jewellery dreams come true, one way we do this is by having a fitting stage. No one wants to see a flat design on a piece of paper, choose their stones and then suddenly be presented with a finished design that looks nothing like what they expected. It is for this reason that we make sure that with any commission we have a fitting stage, this way our clients can see the work in progress try the item on etc and we can make any necessary changes, we make sure our customers have as many fittings as they need and we constantly discuss the design and what they envision to make sure that they are 100% happy with the end result. 

This unusual engagement ring was a recent commission made by us.  The customers wanted the sparkle of diamonds but yet something a little different. The center stone is the much ignored stone of Smokey Quartz, surrounded by diamonds and set in 18ct yellow gold this ring proves that diamonds aren't a girls only best friend!

This dazzle ring was made from a customers existing jewellery. She had  old unworn jewellery that she never wore and was just sitting in a drawer, so with Dominic she designed a stunning dress ring. This ring features a sparkling Citrine as its central stone and is framed by ice white diamonds.
