A piece for a special friend, to mark a special occasion

Henrietta met with Laura on a crisp Melbourne morning at the The Rose Street Artists’ Market in Fitzroy. She was on the hunt for a gift for her oldest friend, Ruby. They began chatting and discussed how the two of them had been friends since they were in primary school.  Although they had both lived in different countries for more than 10 years, they had stayed in touch throughout their travels. Now, almost 35 years since they first met, Henrietta wanted to give her something really unique to mark her 40th birthday. She was drawn to the ring – Clever Diamonds and loved the way it sparkled.

Laura suggested she could make something similar to that ring, but as a pendant. Laura provided a small sketch and developed the idea of making the pendant from 40 beads (to symbolise Ruby’s 40th birthday) and highly polishing the larger beads. They chatted about the details and this custom made pendant was born. Laura found it was one of those great custom commissions that was a joy to create.

Thanks Henrietta and Happy Birthday Ruby!

This piece is made from 100% reclaimed/recycled sterling silver and the surface has a brushed matt finish while some of the beads are highly polished.  You can find out more about the importance of using reclaimed/recycled materials here.

If you are interested in something similar or would like to ask Laura about commissioning a piece for any occasion, please get in touch.

General Enquiry

Thanks for your interest in Coral Covey. Let me know a little bit more about what you are looking for.

None of your personal data will be shared with a third party.

Workshops

Thanks for your interest in my Ring Making Workshops. These are a really fun way to make your own wedding bands or make a ring for a friend.

For this particular workshop we need two half days of approx 3-4 hours. I will guide you both through what is possible, and then I assist you in carving the rings for each other.

– In the first class, we will meet at my workshop in The Nicholas Building and I will size you both and teach you both the art of wax carving the ring to the correct size.
– 2-3 weeks later, at the second meeting, you will learn to file and finish the rings together using classic jewellery techniques, tools and materials.
– You are not required to have any prior skills, materials or tools.
All of this is provided for you.

My price for the two half days is $790. Please note this is for both of you and that these are weekdays, however this does not cover the cost of the rings.

The price of the ring itself will be determined by three factors:
– material
– finger ring size
– band thickness
