This jewellery collection started with the ring. I was asked to make a white gold ring with a princess cut diamond between tapering shoulders. Having finished the piece I thought that it would look so much better if the curve in the shoulders continued into the stone and so I had a series of stones cut to follow the contours of the ring.

These stones are 'buff-cut' or unfacetted which means, in practice, that they present a solid vibrant slab of colour without the sparkle that facets would add. To my eye, this suites the solid form and definite lines of the piece. It does mean, however, that the stones have to be cut out of the best material so they're not cheap and I wince every time I break one when I'm setting it. (as in all 'proper' jewellery, the stone is held in by the metal and considerable force is needed to fold the metal down over the thin edge of the stone. Recipe for disaster really.)

Sizes can be a problem when buying rings without first trying them on so I suggest that you get your finger sized by a jeweller before you order. If this is impractical or if you are ordering a ring as a gift then you can specify whether it is for a lady or a gentleman and I will supply an average ring size and send it out with a ring sizer. If it's not a good fit I will happily size it for you (once!) free of charge if you need me to. I have a page on ring sizing which may be of use to you and you can order a free ring sizer from my catalogue page.

As with everything on the site I will refund your payment immediately and without question if you don't like your jewellery when you receive it; all we ask is that you return it in it's original condition and packaging.
