Palma de Mallorca · By appointment
A Mallorca jeweller for the pieces that matter.
Ian Barnard is a master diamond setter working out of a small private workshop on Carrer de Sant Miquel in Palma. Engagement rings, one-of-one commissions, and restoration for the pieces you would rather not entrust to a high-street counter. Quiet, considered, and made entirely on the island.

The workshop, Palma
slot · home-hero
Master diamond setter
Trained in micro setting for jewellery houses internationally. The setting is where a stone becomes the centre of a piece — everything is done in-house, by hand, by Ian.
By appointment
The workshop is private. There is no shop floor, no counter, no pressure. Visits are by appointment so the conversation can be a proper one.
From €5,000 · most €10–20k
Commissions begin at around €5,000 and most settle between €10,000 and €20,000. There is no ceiling. The number always follows the brief, never the other way round.
What carries the name
Three things a Mallorca jeweller is asked for, and three things we do well.
Most people who find their way here are looking for one of three pieces. The microsite covers the headline; the full process and portfolio live at atelierbarnard.com.
01
Engagement rings
Solitaires, halos, three-stones, hidden-halo pavé, and pieces that do not look like anything else. Designed with you, set by Ian.
02
One-of-one commissions
Necklaces, earrings, signet rings, and pieces that begin with a stone the client already owns or a brief that will not sit on a shelf elsewhere.
03
Restoration
Heirloom pieces brought back to life — re-tipping, retipping worn settings, replacing missing stones, and the quiet repairs that keep something wearable for another generation.

The workshop
On Carrer de Sant Miquel, in the old town.
A short walk from Plaça Major, in the limestone heart of Palma. The workshop is small on purpose — one bench, one master, the tools the work requires and nothing for show. Clients arrive from the island, from across Europe, and from the harbour during the summer.
Quick answers
The most common questions, answered directly.
If your question is not here, send a short note and Ian will answer it personally.
What is a Mallorca jeweller?
A Mallorca jeweller is a jeweller based on the Spanish island of Mallorca who designs and makes pieces locally. Atelier Barnard, on Carrer de Sant Miquel in Palma, is a bespoke Mallorca jeweller specialising in master diamond setting and one-of-one commissions for private clients.
Unlike a high-street shop, a bespoke Mallorca jeweller works by appointment, designs each piece around the client, and carries out the setting and finishing in-house. The workshop is small on purpose — one bench, one master.
Where is Atelier Barnard in Palma?
Atelier Barnard is at Carrer de Sant Miquel 30, 07002 Palma de Mallorca, in the old town a short walk north of Plaça Major. The workshop is private and by appointment only; visits are arranged by email or through the contact form.
How much does a bespoke commission in Mallorca cost?
Bespoke commissions at Atelier Barnard start at €5,000 for a simple, well-made piece. Most commissions settle between €10,000 and €20,000 — a serious engagement ring, a considered necklace, or a properly restored heirloom. There is no upper ceiling; the price always follows the brief.
Who is the jeweller behind Atelier Barnard?
Ian Barnard is a British master diamond setter living and working in Palma de Mallorca. He trained in setting first — including micro pavé and invisible settings — and has been trusted by jewellery houses internationally before opening his own atelier in Palma.
Does Atelier Barnard ship outside Mallorca?
Yes. The workshop is on Mallorca but most commissions involve clients flying in for fittings or working entirely by video call and insured shipping. Finished pieces are sent insured worldwide, with a written record of the piece and how to look after it.
