This striking ring really does look as if it's just been taken from the display of a high end 5th Avenue jewelers. The clean setting in solid sterling silver finished in yellow gold helps to accentuate the feeling of luxury and maximise the fire and brilliance of stones. At the center is a 2.70ct of blue topaz having been especially sourced and then selected for each piece. Stepped Diamondeau® - the Supreme Diamond Alternatives on the shoulders add a real sense of glam to this piece.
A minimalist, chequerboard design comprised of 36 blue mother of pearl hand cut and hand set squares set in a polished case. I love to work in a pared back aesthetic, allowing the elements to take centre stage and reveal their subtleties. The iridescent, flickering quality of mother of pearl is explored here to great effect as each piece of the material displays slightly different characteristics to those of its neighbours.
