Opal is October’s birthstone, and few gems carry more stories: a “curse” born in a novel, a fire made of light itself, and yes… opal on Mars. Swipe through for five things I want you to know, including why I guide clients toward rainbow moonstone when it’s time for an engagement ring.

So tell me… would you have run with the ring?

If a stone is holding your story, I’d love to help you set it in something made only once. Begin your custom request at the link in bio.

With love,
Kris

Congratulations to Nadia Nadia Aurelie Tomasini & Storm Storm Armstrong on your beyond words gorgeous engagement ✨❤️

Storm spent months planning his proposal for Nadia. He found the perfect location in Monet’s garden in Nadia’s home country of France, to suprise her with a one-of-a-kind engagement ring. Just like the intention he made to find the perfect location, photographer, and more - we worked together to design and create Nadia’s heirloom engagement ring.

Storm and I went back and forth for months to fine tune the gallery, or the underside, of the ring where basket settings hold three Old European cut diamonds. Two of which the side diamonds were from Nadia’s family while Storm and I found the perfect center Old Euro to honor their legacy.

From the bottom of my heart, congratulations to both of you! Thank you for the honor to bring your engagement ring to life in platinum & diamonds.

With Love,
Kris

Happy Autumn Equinox!🍁🍂🥮

In the northern hemisphere where I am, we are now shifting into autumn as we move towards winter, making the days shorter and the night’s longer. Personally, I absolutely love the autumn season and the shift of the leaves colors with welcoming time of going within! It’s both a creative & inspiring time.

In celebration of the equinox, I’m sharing some autumn inspiration with yellow and green parti sapphires, where the stone is more than one color, the excitement of a fall proposal, and my love for mixed metals, such as blending platinum and yellow gold ✨

I’m looking forward to autumn hikes with crimson, yellow & orange leaves, a toasty cup of hot chai, and candle lit book reading under a cozy blanket.

What are you looking forward to this autumn season?

Love lives in the moment where a proposal happens! Jake and Jess approached me a few months after they got engaged, wanting to plan their wedding bands with me…And we did just that!

Both of these bands were made just for them inspired by Jess’s love for fantasy and nature, made in a classy way. Together, we woven all the nature elements, that they both adore, so it captures a complete set together - made for one another to last a lifetime.

As a designer, it’s one of my favorite concepts to create a whole set for each couple. Two different rings, or a full set inspired from the same collection yet completely unique and one of a kind. That’s where the magic lives of custom jewelry.

If you’re curious about creating your own piece, fill out my custom request form on the website to get started and bring your one of a kind vision to life.

Make your dream a reality ✨
