Hi. My name is Stuart Galbraith. 

I began my jewellery career 20 years ago, studying Gemmology at the prestigious School of Jewellery in Birmingham. It was here where I attained the Gemmological Association awards of FGA and DGA. 

Remaining in Birmingham, I worked at the head office of a large high street jeweller involved with their jewellery production, quality control and also jewellery valuing for insurance.

In 2008, I moved to Kingston upon Thames as the opportunity arose to complete a BSc in Gemmology and Applied Mineralogy at the University. This gave me a chance to be nearer to London and more importantly Hatton Garden. Working again with the production and manufacture of fine jewellery. 

During this time I discovered my love of all things CAD and decided to study CAD at the Holt's Academy (now the British Academy of Jewellery).

That was over 7 years ago now and ever since I have been working as a CAD designer primarily for major jeweller in the Garden, but now going it alone on a Freelance basis. 

Experienced with Rhino and Matrix software's, I now create CAD for independent jewellery brands and individuals across the sector.
