Bill Hicks Jewellery Design

Situated in a unique New York style studio, located in the Trust Building on the corner of King and Castlereagh streets, in the heart of Sydneys CBD, award winning jewellery designer Bill Hicks and his team offer all the services of a traditional retail jewellery store but in a discrete, private and relaxed environment.

It is here, in a one on one consultation, that Bill spends time discussing and fully understanding each clients particular requirements. It is a collaborative effort that often involves the use of jewellery models, examples of finished jewellery and loose gemstones, says Bill. He also possesses the skill to be able to sketch designs on the spot to ensure that he is responding fully to the subtleties and nuances of each clients brief.

Its really about personalised service, the one-on-one relationship, the fact that I create something individual for each of my clients, Bill comments. We are also finding that more and more people want to deal directly with the owner/designer, they want undivided attention and of course value for money, all of which we provide, he adds.

Every piece of Bills jewellery is handcrafted using only the finest of diamonds, South Sea pearls and coloured gemstones. To ensure that my clients receive the optimum combination of quality and value I source my raw materials directly from a network of local and overseas suppliers, including jewellery and gemstone centres such as Antwerp and Pforzheim, that I have developed over many years, he explains.

Bill also keeps abreast of the latest trends in local and international fashion and jewellery through a network of senior contacts in design houses and the fashion media, and by regularly visiting shows, trade fairs and suppliers in Australia and overseas.

Whether dealing with a $2,000 or $20,000 commission, the development of a totally new piece or the renovation or remodelling of existing jewellery, Bills approach is the same. Ill guide the client through every step of the way. It takes time but I guarantee the client that it will be worth it, he says. It will therefore come as no surprise that the personal recommendation of satisfied clients is Bills biggest single source of new business with clients coming from diverse areas including banking, finance, media and entertainment, medicine and the legal profession.
