In 1540, Henry VIII commissioned the remarkable clock from his astrologer Nicolaus Kratzer. Fascinated by science and astronomy, the king owned a timepiece that could show the hour, day and month, as well as the position of the sun and the phase of the moon.

Jean Tijou’s ornate designs transformed Hampton Court Palace in the late 17th century, defined by flowing scrolls and intricate detail.

Commissioned by William III and influenced by his training at Versailles, Tijou brought artistry and movement to metal.

Elements we have translated into our jewellery through sculpted gold forms and a rich garnet centre stone.

The design captures the quiet beauty of cascading blooms found throughout the palace gardens. First planted in the early 19th century, the wisteria has grown to weave itself across the Tudor brick walls of the Vine Keeper’s House, its delicate clusters falling in soft, layered drapes.

There’s a natural sense of movement in the way the flowers spill and flow, an effortless elegance that has been translated into the form and detail of each piece.
