Mark and Scott have been working together for over seven years now, but it was not until recently that they both decided to join forces to create the new brand.
Mark, a fellow of The Institute of Professional Goldsmiths and who specialises in making bespoke commissions for clients around the world, said: “Scott and I decided it was time we combined our skills and did something together.
"We are presently working on designs and showing prototypes with a view to a full launch at London Fashion Week in September."
