Respect for the gemstone is paramount. Fiona chooses gemstones that highlight their natural beauty, therefore you can expect any Fiona Knapp jewel to hold its value over time. Enticed by the more rare gems seen in Brazil Fiona started designing jewellery in 2000 when working as a gem dealer. Having studied Gemmology in London her love for lesser known gems in particular Tourmaline instructed her designs. India became a huge influence & Fiona fell in love with Jaipur, its crafts & traditions of over two thousand years informing her understanding further. Fiona opened her boutique in London, with entirely one-off pieces, each ring, pendant & earring was a unique design. This combination of expertise in gems & design is invaluable when commissioning or choosing a piece of jewellery.
