About
Anarres is a sculptured world made from wax and transmogrified into metal forever.
All of my pieces are handmade to order and cast using the lost wax method (Cire Perdue), a method that dates back to ancient times and in which the wax model is lost during the casting process. Therefore, each jewel has small irregularities and no two are the same.
Please allow four to eight weeks for all jewels to be made. All pieces can be cast in gold or plated in gold, available by request.
Custom requests
To enquire about a custom request, please send a few words to describe your idea, your budget and metal required to the email address below. A non-refundable deposit will be required before work commences.
Made to order pieces can be cast in the metal of your choice. Email to arrange for a piece to be cast in a metal not listed. For archive pieces you may have seen on Instagram but not available on the website, contact me to purchase.
Caring for metal
Bronze and sterling silver will naturally oxidise over time, this is due to the presence of copper in each of these metals.
This means for bronze a darker toned patina will develop slowly over time, and in reaction to close skin contact will leave a harmless ghostly green mark where the jewel has been. Applying clear nail polish to the inside of bronze rings can minimize or eliminate this effect, however, if this is likely to bother you, bronze is probably not the right metal for you.
Avoid wearing metal in water and keep away from chemicals, when not wearing, polish with a cloth and store in the pouch provided to minimize tarnishing.
No returns or refunds
Due to all pieces being made to order, there is a no return or refund policy on purchases. When ordering a ring, please ensure you have the correct ring measurement.
