On the bench… fish pendant commission
On the bench today… we are showcasing a bespoke 18ct yellow gold fish pendant, produced by our talented in-house team.
This commission was for a 60th birthday gift, made from the customer’s own gold and based on a design sketched by his daughter. Having communicated the overall concept of the pendant to us we drew up a technical illustration of the fish, confirming the size and profile before starting work. Produced using methods such as chasing & repoussé and forging & engraving, both the client (and us!) were delighted with the way the final pendant turned out.
Many of our customers love animal-themed pendants – check our dolphin pendant along with our other animal inspired jewellery here >>
