“I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am with the bracelet Stephen has made for me. From the first contact with Stephen I was reassured that here was someone who would listen to my thoughts, then take those ideas and turn them into something beautiful. The finished article is so beautiful it takes my breath away, and is so absolutely what I pictured in my head when the idea first started to form of having something custom made. Stephen is an artist in every sense of the word, and has an amazing ability to read his customer’s minds! I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking for something a little less ordinary”
