David Parker creates jewellery with an emphasis on line, precision, and originality. His trademark is producing modern, clean and elegant designs with an Art Deco influence, incorporating sweeping curves and bold forms into his metal work. His work showcases the unique properties of stones, bringing out their colour and luminosity, and he combines traditional and contemporary techniques – for instance, using classic asscher and emerald-cut diamonds in a modern setting.

 

David welcomes special commissions and is happy to consult individually with clients. Designs featured on this site may be changed to feature new stones and materials, or reflect a client’s ideas.

“For over twenty years I have dedicated myself to making jewellery to the highest standards. It has been the driving force in my life and the obsession of my waking hours. Initially I worked without pay to gain experience enough to gain an apprenticeship. From there I worked countless hours learning and fine tuning the skills of a traditional goldsmith and jeweller. Like many craftsmen, an apprenticeship can be a difficult and rather thankless task but it has left me with a breadth and depth of skills that is unique in my field.  I believe the value of my work comes from the design, workmanship and attention to detail I put into the pieces I create.
I see my work as an interpretation of art deco and modern influences – in particular art deco architecture and modern sculpture. I'm heavily influenced by the shapes and forms of these movements. My metal work reflects the bold forms, sweeping curves and clean edges often found in both these movements. I feel it's important to embrace new design and to be relevant to my own time and place."
