Hire me, or you'll be missing out on a valuable asset in the fine jewellery market. I'm a fine jewellery specialist with a proven track record of sourcing exceptional gems and creating bespoke pieces. I have access to a network of trusted vendors who can bring your vision to life in just 2-3 weeks, from 3D CAD design to the finished piece. My passion for this industry has taken me around the world, building relationships with top gemstone dealers and crafting unique pieces for discerning clients. I'm particularly proud of a recent project: a GIA-certified 8-carat DVVVS2 radiant-cut diamond engagement ring. I sourced the stone for £67,000 and sold the finished piece for £728,000 – a testament to my ability to identify and capitalize on market trends. I'm confident in my ability to deliver exceptional results, and I'm always eager to take on new challenges. I'm also fortunate to have connections with industry leaders like Martin Rapport, who has been a mentor and friend to my family for many years. I'm looking for a company that values my expertise and drive. Hire me, or you'll be missing out on a valuable asset in the fine jewellery market.
