David Leigh Delport is a South African born jewellery artist who discovered his passion for metalworking and gemstones through a love of geology, nature, and fine craftsmanship.

Drawing inspiration from organic shapes and ancient architectural design elements, he creates each piece by hand in his studio, combining traditional goldsmithing techniques with a modern sculptural aesthetic that celebrates both the raw beauty of precious metals and nature, and the rich legacy of the art that has come before us.
