Another project complete and another example of how successful remaking can be! Handmade by Brent for a lovely client and featuring a beautiful sapphire and diamonds, this ring looks striking on the finger. Rub setting the sapphire and then positioning the diamonds in a triangular shape, along with a band that tapers in from the centre stone are all stylistic choices that work together to make this ring special 😍.
