About this designer / maker

Biography

Enthusiastic about the journey of life, Gee is someone who has chosen to do what she loves.

Passionate about jewellery, striving for perfection in its creation, her pieces are clearly striking. The distinctive designs, characteristic of her work, reflect her ideas about the fascinating path of life. The ever changing flow of experiences and choices ~ the secret patterns of who we are.

Creative and mechanically inclined, Gee remains fascinated by the challenges and rewards of the profession. Co-ordinating functions of the mind and body is part of what makes the work so absorbing ~ and for her, the hunt for gemstones is always a treat!

Fabulous Compasses & Fine Jewellery

Gee's exceptional jewellery is unmistakably backed up by the classical skills of traditional workmanship. Colourful, spirited and lively jewellery creations. Deliciously wearable, reassuringly weighty and made to last beyond the seasons of fashion. An essential element, a compass, often completes the piece ~ an exquisite combination of quality, style and practicality.

Inspiration

A cheeky, yet harmonious use of gold, silver and selected gemstones. Wonderfully wearable, whether for a special occasion or lunch with friends. Captivating and lively designs, inspired by ancient symbols and the fascinating path of life, each piece has its own enduring appeal and personality. Jewellery for Your Journey.

Fine Creations

Gee is a designer-maker so her jewellery is not mass produced. Each piece is one of a kind ~ hand made, unique dsigns. Jewellery with character and individuality, which has taken time to make using high quality materials and professional workmanship.
