Jeweller’s gem Amy Webster

SOCIETY jeweller Stephen Webster, whose avant garde creations are worn by Kate Moss, Joanna Lumley and Madonna, is preparing to unveil his most prized gem.

I can reveal that his daughter Amy is being lined up to take over the reins of his eponymous business.

Amiable Amy, 27, whose mother is Webster’s ex-wife, Kathy Dowden, has been hired as his creative producer and will design her debut piece of jewellery next week. ‘It’s a necklace that will have a special story behind it,’ she tells me at the launch party for broadcaster Mariella Frostrup’s book, Wild Women. ‘I can’t say any more just yet.’

Her father is a former creative director of Garrard, the first official Crown Jeweller, and she says: ‘At the moment I’m in the shadow, but he’s training me to become someone who’s more in the foreground.’

So far Amy, who was educated at £20,000per-year Latymer Upper School in West London, has avoided any big rows with her dad. ‘We get on well at work because we’re so similar. He’s got a great mentality and likes breaking rules — just like me.’
