Gem pairing

“Topaz has deep spiritual meaning in several cultures, and it is said to offer protection, bring fortune, and sharpen the wit. An old English superstition claims that topaz can even cure lunacy!

Amethyst, a variety of quartz, is said to have properties that promote groundedness, tranquillity, and calm, and counteract impatience.

This combination of gems will keep you focussed and inspire a sense of grounded peacefulness.”
‘Amethyst’ translates from the Greek ‘améthystos’ and means “not intoxicated”. The ancient Greeks wore amethyst jewellery and made drinking vessels from it in the belief that it would prevent intoxication, so this could be the perfect ring for a night out!”

ring Design

Inspired by the Art Deco movement's focus on symmetry and geometric patterns, this Tutti Frutti halo ring showcases a bold and striking central gem, echoing the style of classic Cocktail Jewellery. Elevated off the finger, it can be worn as a standout piece on its own, seamlessly alongside other rings. or complemented by other pieces from the Tutti Frutti collection.

Metalwork

The ring’s shank, halo and claws were created by forming and shaping metal bullion using traditional mounting methods. These ‘master’ ring components are then used to create moulds from which wax versions are made, and these waxes are cast into 9ct or 18ct recycled white gold using the ‘lost wax’ casting method. The component castings are filed, emeried and smoothed before being soldered together using gold solder and a blowtorch.

Gems

The gems are responsibly sourced by a trusted dealer based in Hatton Garden, London who we work closely with to ensure the highest quality and most vibrantly coloured stones. The central 8.5mm brilliant cut Sky Blue Topaz is claw set and finished with talons, and the twenty four 1mm orange sapphires are individually set into the halo using the thread and grain technique.
