WHAT
DOES THE ARTIST GOLDSMITH OFFER TO YOU ?
- - -
Being a professionally trained Goldsmith, Christine offers
maximum value to a full range of jewellery services:
- - - Creating
one-of-a-kind jewellery artworks Incorporating
client’s stones and metals in commission pieces Repairing
and servicing jewellery Restringing
and refurbishing pearl necklaces
- - - Creating: with over 35 years experience as a
creative Goldsmith, Christine carries a wonderful selection of
one-of-a-kind jewellery in 18ct gold and sterling silver. Her
love of colourful gemstones gives each an individual character.
These are ideal for very personal birthday and anniversary gifts,
weddings and special treats. Her work is highly collectable and
of proven Museum quality.
- - - Commissions: the setting of a client’s stones
(recently a beautiful 6ct emerald) to optimal effect (as a magnificent
ring) using gold provided (inherited rings, broken chain, an
ear stud, heavy gold bracelet) gives new and dramatic life
to sentimental material, rendering it functional today and ideally
suited to handing down through the family.
- - - Repairing and Servicing: with a deep understanding of her metals, Christine can advise
on maintaining the value in your jewellery through repair or
alteration. Even a good clean and polish can help to restore
a piece to past glory!
- - - Refurbishment: Pearl strings should be
restrung every couple of years to avoid breakage and loss of
material (cf the car service). The addition of extra elements
– gold rings, coloured stones, interesting spacers – can transform
a simple string to an exciting necklace at very little cost!
- - -
Traditionally, German “Wertarbeit” has been about delivering
long-term value through high quality materials and workmanship;
this ethic has driven Christine’s long career. Be your investment
a few hundred or many thousands of dollars, she promises to
deliver an expert service based of a thorough understanding
of her craft.

We look forward to imparting maximum VALUE into
the creation of YOUR special piece of heirloom jewellery.
