Freedom Rings

The traditional idea has always been that a man should buy a woman diamonds, but things drastically changed over the last century!

Nowadays, women are no longer dependant on men for anything, so there's no need to wait for a man to buy you diamonds any more - if you want them, why not treat yourself?

An ideal present to yourself would be to have us make a Freedom Ring for you - a ring to be worn on your right hand to show that you are completely happy with who you are, whether you're single or married, it doesn't matter!

Freedom Rings can be made to any design, some symbols for freedom (to give you some inspiration!) include: birds, butterflies, the sea, the sun, the mooon and stars, the sky and the wind.

Come in and see us to discuss your ideas!

More about our Product of the Week - 17/9/12!

Our Product of the Week this week is our Hamsa hand pendant, in 9k white gold, 0.12ct diamond and turquoise.

The Hamsa is traditionally a palm-shaped amulet, to provide protection. It is popular in the Middle-East and North Africa in particular, and is depicted as an open right hand.
Hamsas are also known as the Hand of Fatima in Islam, the Hand of Mary by Levantine Christians and the Hand of Miriam in Judaism.

This amulet is believed to protect the wearer from the Evil Eye (I'm sure we've all given someone the evil eye at some point!) which directs injury or bad luck towards someone, as a result of envy or dislike.

The Hamsa is also regarded and used widely as a good luck charm, and also appears in the emblem of Algeria, due to its significance in Arabic and Berber (that's Berber, not Bieber!) culture.

So not only will this pendant look absolutely fabulous on you, it might just give you that little bit extra luck we could all sometimes do with!

Green Quartz

Apart from being completely stunning, our Product of the Week this week can also help you in other ways!
Everyone knows that Quartz has special, healing properties - but each form of Quartz has its own unique qualities.

Green Quartz is more formally known as Prasiolite (or Silicon Dioxide, to use its chemical name) and has special qualities which encourage Love, Intuition and Creativity.
If you're feeling like you need some inspiration, Prasiolite will help you get there!
It also helps the endocrine glands, to keep your body well-balanced, as well as transforming negative energy to positive energy.

Aside from those things, our Green Quartz ring also contains diamonds and is made in 9k White Gold. So even if you're not interested in healing properties, you can definitely enjoy wearing this ring - we think it's gorgeous!

More about our Product of the Week! (20/8)

Our Product of the week this week is our Sapphire and Diamond Cocktail Ring in 18k White Gold.

Its design is highly unique and is guaranteed to attract attention at any occasion - as well as adding glamour to any outfit!

Sapphires are the crystallised form of Aluminium Oxide and although usually blue in colour, other colours are often found naturally - including yellow, green, orange brown and even pink!

Natural sapphires can be found in Africa, Asia and North America, but in 1902, a French chemist - Auguste Verneuil - created the World's first synthetic sapphires. Synthetic sapphires are used nowadays in things like the windows in armoured cars and in military body armour, due to their toughness and scratch-resistant properties.

Even though the applications of synthetic sapphires are obviously extremely useful, we think real sapphires are far too precious to be used for things like that!
They definitely look better in our Cocktail Ring, don't you agree?
