Shiny New Year!







What a beaut this one is! A gorgeous cushion cut, sky blue aquamarine surrounded with finely set white diamonds, and an ornate millgrain finish.  A dress ring for that elegant evening out, when you're dressed to the nines!


 
 
Unfortunately, just about two months after making this gorgeously simplistic, yet striking engagement ring...it was lost!  What made it so particularly special for me, was that the groom-to-be was so involved in the designing process - something that is usually left to the bride-to-be, when they've specifically come to me for a bespoke piece of jewellery.  The central +-1.00ct white central diamond is hugged by two smaller black diamonds and set in platinum.
 
 
 
 
Inspired by the celtic style of continuous looping, swirling and twirling - this simple pendant is really quite pretty on an unelaborate chain, suspended lowish on the chest.  Perfect for a V-neck or high neckline garment.  Contructed out of solid round wire, appearing to be unending at its four points of curviture.
 
 
 
 
This engagement ring is really quite intricate indeed, with various filigree-like scrolls, pave' setting and delicate millgrain detail.  Quite lovely, if I might say so myself.  Set in 18ct white gold and white diamonds.
