Each design is born from a true collaboration between you and the artist Kate, to embody your individuality - geometrically translated into form using traditional metalsmithing techniques and crafted by hand with skill and intention. From love stories to legacy gems, or personal motifs to capturing special memories in time, a Smith And Poet Bolo Tie is more than jewellery: it’s a lifelong gift, a collector’s treasure. A work of art created to be as unique as you are.
You're invited to book your 30min free design consultation.
All parts of the bolo ties that Kate lovingly creates for you are made by her in her Sydney metalsmithing studio. Each part is thoughtfully sketched to create patterns, metal sheet is sawn by hand, layers are soldered together with the flame, leather lace plaited to step by step build up your beautifully crafted bolo tie. A truly soulful adornment, human to human.
Once you fill out the contact form above Kate will contact you to arrange a suitable time to connect. The consultation is a great way to share ideas and discuss the inspiration and storytelling you wish to include in your bespoke piece.
Kate will do 2 different hand drawn sketches to give you options and design range to play with until you are happy with the final design. A final quote is then given and crafting can begin once the first payment is made. Payments can be split up into 3 stages: Commitment and materials, mid way payment and final payment
Fabrication time takes 4-8 weeks depending on complexity and layers within the design or if sourcing of gems is required.
Yes! Always and Forever. The joy of creating custom designs is that they are crafted to tell your story and the integrity of being unique is guaranteed.
Kate hand makes all parts which include the metal pendant, the adjustable bennett clasp at the back, plaiting the leather and making the bolo tie ends as well. Your bolo tie comes gifted in a suede custom pouch and a postcard showing the fabrication journey with a handwritten thank you from Kate for the opportunity.
