点评:I chose Harriet Kelsall's Hitchin studio after some careful investigation, and I was not disappointed. I was accompanied on my first visit by my three adult children who were all keen to be part of the creation of my ring. I was quite recently widowed and I wanted to create something to commemorate what would have been our fiftieth wedding anniversary, if possible incorporating the gold from my husband's wedding ring. Alice took a great deal of time and trouble to understand my vision, and despite a huge variety of images which I had pinned to my moodboard, we arrived at the perfect ring, combining baguette diamonds for my love of art deco with three tourmalines (one stone for each of my children in my favourite colour). When it became clear that the gold from my husband's ring would not tolerate the stress of being reworked into the shape I had chosen, Alice was able to come up with a solution by incorporating a small disc of the gold from my husband's ring on the inside of the new one, making this a truly bespoke ring, which is uniquely mine. I couldn't be happier with the result. I had three appointments in total to ensure that Alice's design was being brought to life as I wanted, and nothing was too much trouble, My sincere thanks to everyone at Harriet Kelsall for going to so much trouble to ensure the best possible result in the circumstances.
翻译:经过仔细考察后,我选择了Harriet Kelsall位于Hitchin的工作室,结果果然没有让我失望。第一次去的时候,我的三个成年子女也陪同在旁,他们都迫切希望参与我的戒指制作过程。我最近丧偶,希望能制作一件纪念品来缅怀本应是我们结婚五十周年的日子;如果可以的话,我还想把丈夫婚戒中的金料也融入其中。Alice花了很多时间和心思来理解我的想法。尽管我在情绪板上收藏了各式各样的图片作为参考,我们最终还是找到了一枚完美的戒指:它采用了巴洛克式切割的钻石来满足我对装饰艺术风格的喜爱,还镶有三颗电气石——每一颗石头都代表着我的一个孩子,颜色也是我最喜欢的那种。后来我们发现,我丈夫戒指上的黄金材质根本无法承受重新塑形的过程所带来的应力。爱丽丝想出了一个绝妙的解决方案:她在我定制的新戒指内侧镶嵌了一小块来自我丈夫戒指上的金片,这样这枚戒指便真正成为了专为我量身定做的独一无二的饰品。我对最终成品极为满意。为了确保爱丽丝的设计能完全按照我的设想实现,我一共进行了三次面谈,而她始终耐心细致,从不嫌麻烦。我由衷感谢Harriet Kelsall的每一位成员,你们费心费力,力求在现有条件下取得最佳效果。
