The things of spring

 
 
A real match made in heaven (well, in my workshop anyway - my little piece of it anyway)...
18ct white gold Lucida style engagement ring with a crystal clear, beautifully white central princess cut diamond, and similarly coloured and graded side brilliant cut diamonds (in both the engagement and wedding ring).
 
 
 
 
This wonderfully simple yet striking engagement ring was commissioned by a client that shared a common interest in the original Niessing tension set design.  Still one of the most popular engagement ring setting styles, and loved by all who appreciate the simple things in life.  This one has an interesting twist on the more conventional style (parallel sides gripping stone in place), in that the gap is diagonal and angled - a slight change, but certainly just as beautiful!
 
 


Criss-crossed and geometrically angular.  An interesting design incorporating the use of "eternity" (continuing all the way around the ring - never ending) set brilliant white diamonds.
 
 


Something old and something new ... the crucifix also being one of the most popular pieces of jewellery worn, since the beginning of time.  This one symbolising the trinity of the Christian faith - divided into three separate parts (left yellow gold section, central rectangular pave' set diamond section, and right yellow gold section), yet all still one, and contained on a movable ring and bale.
