So juicy. Like a sweet 🍬😍
.
.
I’m loving working with these big tourmaline gemstones. Such a pop of colour especially for these summer months. I’ve been working on the Bellini rings for the past two days, and each gem is so unique with its colours and markings. Each one having completely different personalities and charms ✨🥂
.
.
This particular ring was designed as almost like a hybrid ring. Using a tourmaline gemstone (Bellini ring) but with a broad silver edging with decoration (Luna ring).

Passion and intuition 🧡✨
.
.
I’m really lucky that I found my passion and I listened to the niggling that was telling me ‘this is not your life, change it’ . Actually is was more like a screaming raging bull.
.
.
But that cycle never ends, each step of the way there’s highs and lows and new obstacles that you have to navigate around. Look at last year as a perfect example 😂, and my recent technological failure when interviewing @hugoluisjewellery
.
.
But riding this rollercoaster is so much easier when you have faith in something, which makes you convinced to keep going even when you have a moment of ‘I’m done, this is too hard’ .
.
.
The Monday morning test is the best litmus paper. Last night I even turned down Prosecco so I could be fresh and clear headed for today.
.
.
I hope all of you are ready for the week ahead, and today you got out of bed ready to enjoy whatever it is that you do. And if not ? What would your dream day look like ?

SWIPE for TRANSFORMATION➡️
.
.
My customer’s ring belonged to her mum, and although the sentiment was there for this ring, the style was not.
.
.
We kept the core aspect of the ring by remounting all of the diamonds and keeping the central setting, these were remounted onto a white gold straight band.
.
.
This brought this ring back to life with a more contemporary look, and combining both mother’s ring and daughters taste.

Im so glad I shared this little gemstone beaut on

Im so glad I shared this little gemstone beaut on my stories a few weeks back, because her new owner is so excited to own her, and she snapped her up there and then.
.
.
It’s not always straightforward to identify coloured stones from just their colours (hence why I’m doing a gem course this summer), but I do find peridot is a fairly easy one to identify. With its consistent sharp limey green, it’s a pretty distinctive gemstone.
.
.
The spiritual meaning for peridot :

‘Green is the color associated with abundance, so peridot helps attract abundance while keeping one's heart open and joyful. The wisdom of peridot is about attracting wealth with joy and by following one's true calling, rather than with hard work and persistence. Peridot can also: Promote the energy of protection’

✨🤍Monday and the week ahead :
.
I’ll be posting out some lovely jewell’s today and tomorrow for my patient customers. I’ll also be starting my first order of Bellini rings this week which will be fun for me to put those lovely tourmalines into their new homes.
.
.
I’m also pleased to see I have several engagement ring enquiries to look at this week too, and after the 14months we have all had, these couples deserve the best I can give them.
.
.
Hope you all have a great week ! Let me know what you’re up to (if you can) below 🙌🏼✨

THE BELLINI RING : ✨🍹💎
.
.
The Bellini Ring is a combination of warm gold and cool silver, encasing a unique rose cut tourmaline.

Each tourmaline is completely different, from colour, shape and size.

This really puts the design power in your hands.
You can pick your gemstone, the beaded shank style (straight or twisted), and the final choice is adding a white sapphire for that extra bit of ice in your Bellini (+ £65 for sapphire).

Pick your gem (swipe for prices)
Pick your ring shank
Add a sapphire ?

And DM for availability.

Work in progress of a recent pendant.

My customer unfortunately chipped one of her emeralds in her engagement ring, after replacing them we took these original gems and set them in a new pendant design, hiding the chip under one of the claws
.

This solid silver textured pendant has a gold vermeil coating, and hangs on a 20 inch chain.
