New design from the CS London Silver Collection.
I designed this ring as i'm a bit of a fiddler. I wanted a ring that I could wear every day that would turn in the centre and allow me to tinker. I often find myself deep in thought and using this ring to help keep me focussed. I'd orginally just made the one and I wore it every day for two years.
I got so many compliments and potential orders on it because it looks so fresh and stylish yet it's also intriguing. So earlier this year I decided to make them for my friends and clients. Currently only available in size Small which is a finger size J, K.

Claudia has a fierce passion for Fine Jewellery & Design and she's used this love and acquired knowledge to create a traditional business that prides itself on 'British Made' exceptional craftsmanship from her workshop in the Heart of London.
It all started when as a teenager she would tinker with the tools in her Father’s workshop at their family home in Buckinghamshire, England.
Her Father is of one of “the World's finest Gunmakers” - Peter Nelson (formally of the famous London Gunmakers, James Purdey & Son and then under his own respected name of P.V Nelson – Gunmakers, London).
Claudia would make cufflinks, belt buckles and unusual jewellery from the raw material she found lying around his workshop and shape them into fashionable wearable pieces.
If she was lucky enough to be in the workshop at the time of her Father finishing a piece, she'd salvage real 24 carat gold leaf and precision offcuts of stainless steel.
This sparked her love of jewellery creation and planted the idea of one day creating her own brand of Jewellery under her own name, just as her Father did with his Guns.
Below is the 'Nelson Gun' built by Peter Nelson and arguably one of the most famous shotguns to have been made in Britain and above is a pair of Claudia's own branded cufflinks designs.
Her Father, Peter Nelson is known in the industry as ‘Mr Perfection’, little wonder when one of his incredible guns took approximately 800 hours to complete.
"He has a lot of patience and an eye for detail that is hard to comprehend".
Peter has now retired from Gunmaking and has taken over the quality and control within Claudia Sylvester London.

She travelled the world with her Husband, then Professional cricketer Steven (now Author & Sports Psychologist), and spent a year living and working as a model in Australia for various Designers including Louis Féraud and Calvin Klein.
She then came back to London and modelled for Vivienne Westwood & Anna Sui in London Fashion Week and got to meet and work with many of the Designers she'd spent years admiring.
Still with a love of Design and Fashion, she switched from modelling to TV presenting and loved it so much, she stayed doing this for 18 years with a role as Host of QVC.
It was during this time and after the birth of their 4th child, Cl
