The Mixed Teal Bubble Ring

Re-design work is something we do quite a lot….. But this was a re-design with a difference!…

My lovely lady had made an appointment to re-design some inherited pieces which were never worn.

These precious heirlooms had been stolen and she was now having to re-design with the gemstones and starting from scratch.

Armed with a Gem-Card (this means her insurance had issued her with a credit card style plastic card to go to an LMG approved Jewellers and replace said items) and an inspiration sheet we started work…

Inspiration Board

This style of “mood board” is a great way to start a project. It tells me what you love, the styles, the metals, the colours. It gives me a glimpse inside your mind!! Basically, if I’m going to create the perfect ring I need a pretty good idea what makes (and doesn’t) make you tick. Being as brutally honest as she could she talked me through the likes and dislikes of all the above.

It became apparent, that the love of rub over setting, yellow gold and Teal featured quite strongly! Wanting to complement existing jewellery, I carefully chose a selection of stock items and again with brutal honesty whittled it down to one.

The Iconic Christopher Stoner Bubble Ring.. 

Christopher Stoners Bubble Ring

A popular choice of inspiration for many a re-design, it lends itself perfectly to different shapes, sizes and colours of gemstones. For more info on the Bubble Ring or visit http://christopherstoner.com/right-hand-rings/the-iconic-bubble-ring-by-christopher-stoner-fine-jewellery/

I would LOVE a Blue Tourmaline, ideally the THIS COLOUR she said pointing to the inspiration sheet. No problem!!

Matching her engagement ring with the sapphires and introduction of Aquamarines and several other Mixed Teals of various intensities, we created a true “One of a kind” ring.
