Meet Louise – Designer, Goldsmith, Gemstone Specialist

Louise began her career through a traditional apprenticeship with one of the UK’s leading designer goldsmiths. Her passion for precious metals and gemstones led her to pursue further study, earning both FGA (Fellow of the Gemmological Association) and DGA (Diamond Member of the Gemmological Association) credentials. With experience working in the Middle East and Far East, Louise brings extensive knowledge of sourcing, grading, and working with fine, ethically sourced gemstones—perfect for clients looking for something truly exceptional or unusual.
