hexagon diamond ring

The Wild Path Jewellery -

"This hexagon rose cut diamond ring had one of the most difficult bezels to fabricate of 2018. Not only is it tiny but all those corners! My first hex stone and it came out perfectly! It’s so beautiful, dainty but eye catching. Sometimes the things that look like the most simple designs are actually the hardest to create."

Honey Bee Design - 

"I finally got these beauties finished using some of the beautiful stones from my Kernowcraft winnings to create this gorgeous new range."⁠

new lander ring

Navan Jewellery -

"One-of-a-kind new lander turquoise silver ring. I chose this stone both because of the more unusual shape and the beautiful crackled effect on the turquoise. I wanted to keep the design as simple as possible to keep the stone at the forefront of the piece. I love how much new lander turquoise varies!"
