OUR DESIGN PROCESS
Craftmanship and Creativity
Produced by our talented team of designer's, all Deakin & Francis products start their life as a hand drawn sketch and are later translated into handcrafted pieces. We are custodians of traditional techniques perfected by those who came before us, while also exploring the forefront of cutting-edge technology to acheive the level of finish we require for a Deakin and Francis product.
OUR DESIGN PROCESS
A Testament to our Craft
Through two world wars, recessions and a global pandemic we have remained in the same building where we began. Despite these unpredictable times, we have continued to strive for perfection with all of our offerings.
OUR DESIGN PROCESS
Keeping tradition alive
We are proud to be one of the few remaining masters in the art of vitreous enamelling. This practice is truly a rare art, revitalised through our in-house Enamellers' using their traditional skills alongside innovative new techniques to create charming pieces of jewellery for our clients.
