The Atelier
How a piece is made
Every commission runs the same five stages. They are described here in full because knowing what you are buying should not require asking.
- 01Conversation
An hour, usually two. What it is for, who wears it, what they already own. Nothing is drawn yet, and nothing is quoted.
- 02Design
Hand sketches first, then CAD. You approve the renders before a gram of metal is ordered — and that approval is recorded, dated and attributable.
- 03The Stone
Sourced to the brief and shown to you before it is bought. Certificates where they exist, our eyes where they do not.
- 04The Bench
Cast, filed, set, polished. The longest stage and the quietest. Photographed as it goes, so the wait is not silent.
- 05The House
Finished, certified, boxed. Delivered in person in Victoria, or shipped insured.
