This is one of a large lot of new pics, by Ester Segarra. These are rings and a bracelet.
Now, all I have to do is sell them. No problem.
Good pics though.

All going well with the cufflinks.
I have a new customer, Michael Rose of Burlington Arcade.
He has ordered 6 pairs, skulls, owls, labradors.... the only thing is he wants them 150mm which is SMALL!
I have to sort out better magnifying systems. I use the head set with a glass in it, but I dont like it much. Quite uncomfortable. I have to do something as the poor old eyes hate this. But drawing these tiny things is good fun.
A Savile Row client has asked for something completely different, working with the suit fabric for buttons and links, so there is no overlap.
Been to COLLECT this weekend, where I was delighted to see the ceramicist Hitomi Hosono, who was at the Royal College while I was there and who is a delightful person, has deservedly won the Perrier-Jouët Arts Salon Prize, 2013.
All these are hand thrown with hand carved foliage attached.

On the Road
Today I took myself to Savile Row and introduced myself to many shops. I showed the cufflinks and had lots of great responses.
They are not right for some people, of course, but for those who specialize in hand made, UK produced specialty items.... well, they loved them!
I was asked:
Can you do the shop logo? Yes
Can you do this coats of arms? Yes
Can you paint them to match the fabric of a suit? Yes
Can you do buttons? Yes, I can!!
Yippee.
