Description
William Griffiths
William Llewellyn Griffiths is a self-taught jeweller with 48 years of experience, renowned for his unorthodox and maximalist fine jewellery. Born in Liverpool, England, to an artist mother and an inventor father, Griffiths was encouraged to pursue his experimental endeavours from a young age. He has enjoyed a wildly varied career, beginning in London’s Hatton Garden in his late teens before establishing Metal Couture, in Melbourne, Australia, in 2000. The brand is now proudly celebrating its 25th year.
Taking inspiration from a wide and unexpected breadth of sources—from antique furniture and Renaissance architecture to the intricate workings of automata—each piece is a testament to his unique approach. William blends ancient and modern jewellery-making techniques, constantly experimenting and refining his craft. His catalogue features creations ranging from cathedral-esque engagement rings and distinctive bereavement jewellery to kinetic statement pendants. You can peruse the website to view these unique creations, or arrange one-off commissions via email.
