After 45 years at the jeweller’s bench, certified master goldsmith Ian Finlayson has retired from full-time work and no longer keeps regular business hours. Our retail business is closed. We are not taking on repairs or redesigns of old jewellery. That said, Ian has not put down the tools altogether … but he thinks he’s earned the right to be choosy. He and his designer/daughter, Lesley, will accept a limited number of high-end custom jobs, by appointment only. If you would like to enquire about a project you have in mind, please e-mail info@finlaysons.ca. Please, no phone calls or drop-ins. During a four year apprenticeship under Swiss jeweller Toni Cavelti, Ian learned the art of hand fabricating jewellery using traditional European techniques. Ian works with his daughter, Lesley, who has ten years of experience as a jewellery designer. They specialize in custom creations in 18K gold and platinum. more... See more text
