My pearls recently had an overhaul and the clasp got fixed so now I’m considering a ring design. After an hour or so I finally got to this design (using Ai) with a ruby, coral, pearl and diamonds. Which coral colour looks best or should I mix them both?! Help me choose 😊

Just purchased a beautiful 10+ carat aquamarine - my design is still in progress but Ai has helped me mock it up. The gold represents seaweed with small aquamarine accents to lift it like water droplets twinkling in the sun.

The question is whether to keep the design simple with more chain for a less cluttered look or have more “seaweed” for a more luxurious look!

The stone has a brown inclusion so the other question is to hide it with a small wave of gold or not?! What would you do?

✨ Design Dilemma! ✨
I just received this gorgeous gemstone — a rich violet beauty with a deep, sophisticated glow. 💎 Now I’m trying to decide how best to set it.

Should it become a statement pendant with accent stones (like yellow sapphire, pearl, or emerald)? Or something sleeker and more modern — maybe a clean halo or geometric design?

I’d love your thoughts — which design direction would you choose?
💜 Classic elegance
💛 Colour contrast
💚 Modern edge

✨ From Dress to Design ✨

Inspired by Marie Antoinette’s gown at the V&A — silk, ribbons, and whispers of Versailles.

💎 Design A: soft and romantic, pastel tones and daylight elegance.
💎 Design B: bold and regal, sapphire and rose in candlelight splendour.

Two jewels. One muse.
Which would you choose — A or B? 👑

💎 Ideas Corner 💎

Not every treasure begins at the jeweller’s bench — some begin in a moment that takes your breath away.

This photo from Cappadocia reminds me how colour, light, and memory can shape design. I haven’t created the piece yet, but the sunrise and the drifting balloons have already sparked a vision of fire and sky in gemstones.

This will be my Ideas Corner — a place to share inspirations and beginnings… and to invite your ideas too.
What colours or moments would you turn into jewellery? 💫
