The Sounds, the sunshine, the Tui Bird and Fantail and the interesting and beautiful people that live here. Q. Three words that describe how someone would feel using your service. A. Confident, Happy and Emotional Q. What is unique about your service? A. I deal face to face with my clients, gather their ideas, draw the designs and make the piece of Jewellery. Connecting with the customer and being able to interperate their thoughts and wishes into their special piece of Jewellery, always thinking of our conversations along the way makes for a good outcome. Q What is something about you that people may not know? A. I started my apprenticeship as a Goldsmith in April 28 years ago. I have a Swiss father and South African mother (just like Rodger Federer), I grew up in Cape Town South Africa going on holidays in the wild to see the African animals. I love Spaghetti and the beach! Q. How would you describe “A great day at work”?

A. Interacting with people, a productive day at the bench and customers that are happy when they leave my studio. Q. What 3 celebrities or special people would you like to work with? A. My Dad, because I miss him. A beekeeper, for they do special work and Nelson Mandela for his forgiving heart, compassion, perseverance and great wisdom. Q. Where does the inspiration or motivation for your business come from? A. The sentimental attachment that people have to their Jewellery and the joy a newly created piece brings to them. The love of creating something of quality and beauty that can be worn, and the endless spectrum of colour and the lustre of precious and semi-precious gemstones. Q. What’s next on your wish list? A. Some time to create a few beautiful new pieces of Jewellery for the showcases and a bit of travel would be nice.
