For herself

This engagement ring pairs a bold elongated oval center diamond with a softly split yellow gold band, finished with a single delicate leaf engraved on each arm. Small round diamonds are set flush into the band near the point where the split meets, adding quiet sparkle without competing with the center stone. The band was built slightly thicker than a standard profile to match a ring the client already wears and loves the feel of. Designed with a low center setting in mind, the ring balances presence with everyday comfort, making it a fitting choice for someone who wants a substantial center stone without a ring that feels top-heavy.

These drop earrings reinterpret a celebrity-inspired tusk silhouette as a two-part design: a small front stud paired with a longer curved jacket that appears to pass through the earlobe. The jacket carries a row of pave-set moissanite stones along its inner curve, while the front hook stays smooth and polished due to its narrow, rounded profile. Cast in 14k white gold rather than silver, the design prioritizes structural integrity — the metal needed to be strong enough to hold small recessed stone settings without bending or risking stone loss. The result is a sparkling, elongated line that curves gently along the ear, with a high-polish finish designed to catch the light.

This 14k white gold engagement ring was designed as a self-purchase to mark a 50th birthday. The bypass band holds a round aquamarine in an open six-prong setting on one side, and a round grey pearl cupped in a wrapping metal setting on the other, creating an intentionally asymmetrical silhouette. The pearl was selected to honor a family tradition of a non-diamond engagement ring, while the aquamarine reflects the wearer’s own birth month. The result is a modern, wearable ring built from two contrasting textures and tones — the faceted brilliance of the stone against the soft luster of the pearl. It suits someone who wants a ring with personal meaning built into the design itself, not just the occasion it marks.

This engagement ring began with a client designing her own piece around a stone she simply loved the color of — a soft blue kite-cut aquamarine, chosen for its uniqueness rather than any birthstone connection. The design moved through several rounds of refinement: the metal shifted from yellow to rose gold, the setting changed from a full bezel to open prongs, and the diamond accents were reworked from two simple side stones into a partial halo that traces the upper-left and lower-right edges of the kite shape. The result is an asymmetrical, modern silhouette with a low-profile plain band that lets the stone and its diamond framing carry the design. It suits someone who wanted an engagement ring with a distinct shape and color rather than a traditional round diamond solitaire.

This mother’s ring sets two pear-shaped stones side by side, points meeting at the center so the pair reads almost like a heart when worn. A lab-grown diamond sits beside a Swiss blue topaz, each around three-quarters of a carat, held in a shared prong setting on a simple polished 14k yellow gold band. The design keeps the focus entirely on the two stones — no halo, no accent diamonds, just a clean pairing that lets the color contrast do the work. It suits someone who wants a symbolic two-stone piece that still reads as an everyday ring, easy to wear alongside other jewelry without competing for attention.

This 14k white gold eternity band was designed to be worn every day without feeling bulky. Four round gemstones — blue sapphire, green peridot, red garnet, and orange citrine — repeat continuously around the entire band rather than covering just the top half, so the pattern of color carries all the way around the finger. Each stone was kept to approximately 2mm to preserve a slim, low-profile silhouette suited to daily wear. The design favors a clean, repeating rhythm over a single focal stone, letting the four colors read as a continuous sequence rather than a cluster. It suits someone who wants a ring with genuine color and detail but doesn’t want the weight or bulk of a statement piece — a band you can wear every day and still notice the color when you look down.

This S-shaped bypass ring was rebuilt in platinum after the original — a custom piece from the 1950s — was stolen. Three round natural diamonds sit in a raised box setting at the center, with pave-set round diamonds tracing both curves of the S so no metal band is left bare. The design was refined over several rounds of sketches and 3D renders to match the client’s memory of the original as closely as possible, including a solid, gap-free profile between the stones and the band. Platinum was chosen over white gold for its durability and because it holds its white color without replating over decades of wear. The piece is intended to be worn daily and eventually passed down to a family member.

This sterling silver ring reimagines a beloved grandmother’s ring using only memory and a handful of blurry photos as reference. The asymmetrical swirl design features two connected forms — one rounded, one more pointed — meeting at a bezel-set oval blue spinel that echoes the turquoise-like stone of the original. One side of the setting is covered in a cluster of raised, granulated dots, replacing what the client remembered as a textured, non-linear decorative element. The band was widened partway through the design process, which ended up improving the overall proportion of the piece. Made in sterling silver for a cost-conscious approach to a sentimental recreation, this ring suits anyone who wants to carry a piece of family history forward without needing an exact replica — an interpretation that captures the feeling of the original rather than a precise copy.

This fully three-dimensional dragon pendant was built to capture traditional Chinese dragon imagery in wearable scale — extended horns, a curled serpentine body, and a spiked tail looped back on itself. The scales along the head, neck, and coils are set with round lab-created diamonds against white rhodium-plated gold, while the rest of the body is cast in warm 14k yellow gold, creating a two-tone contrast that highlights the dragon’s form. A small pale jade bead is held securely in the dragon’s mouth, pinned in place from beneath — a detail the client considered essential to the design. The pendant went through multiple rounds of sketch revision to get the silhouette, tail shape, and proportions right before moving to the 3D model. Sized for everyday wear at approximately 1.5 inches, it suits someone who wants a bold, symbolic piece with real dimensional presence rather than a flat emblem.

This 14k yellow gold band alternates five marquise-cut natural rubies with four round natural diamonds, set across the top portion of a slim polished band that stays smooth underneath. The marquise cut was chosen to match the elongated shape of the rubies in the original piece, worked out from photos and careful comparison of stone proportions. It sits low and close to the finger, making it easy to stack or wear on its own every day. The design suits anyone who wants to bring a family piece back into daily rotation without it feeling fragile or precious to the point of being set aside.

This ring centers an oval cabochon moonstone inside a sunburst-style halo of twelve round sapphires that alternate between larger and smaller stones for a dynamic, dimensional frame. The moonstone is held with four prongs sized to secure its domed profile, while the halo stones were sourced in a pale, periwinkle-leaning blue to complement the stone’s natural undertones. The band splits into a V-shape at the shoulders before merging into a single yellow gold shank at the back, echoing the silhouette of the client’s original inspiration piece. Designed as a replacement for a delicate ring worn daily for years, this piece was built to be a long-term, everyday ring rather than an occasional-wear piece. It suits someone drawn to moonstone’s soft glow and looking for a halo design with movement and asymmetry, rather than a uniform ring of identical stones.

This engagement ring centers a princess-cut lab diamond, rotated on point to read as an elongated diamond shape rather than a standard square profile. V-shaped prongs anchor each corner of the stone, reinforced by a gallery rail and a cluster of marquise and round diamonds that fan out around it. Delicate yellow gold leaves extend outward from the shoulders of an otherwise white gold band, and pave diamonds continue partway down the shank. The cathedral-style setting lifts the stone for a raised, architectural profile while keeping the overall design light and floral rather than heavy. It suits someone who wanted a delicate, nature-inspired ring without an oversized presence on the hand.

This engagement-style solitaire was built around a client-provided 2.89ct oval lab diamond, set in a flowing bypass band that curves around the stone rather than meeting beneath it. The 14k white gold is finished to a high polish, and the band narrows to a slim, comfortable profile without sacrificing durability. A four-prong basket setting lifts the oval diamond to catch light from every angle while keeping the overall silhouette modern and uncluttered. The design favors clean lines over ornamentation, letting the size and clarity of the center stone carry the piece. It suits someone who wants a solitaire that feels contemporary rather than traditional, with a setting style that reads as sculptural even though the design itself is quite simple to wear day to day.

This sideways cross pendant is crafted in 14k white gold with a gentle upward curve along its length. The wearer’s name is engraved in a clean script font across the horizontal bar, and a small round emerald in a bezel setting hangs from the short end of the cross. The cross ends were rounded during the design phase for a softer look, and the pendant sits on a 16-inch cable chain sized to sit as a semi-loose choker. It suits someone who wants a personalized, faith-inspired piece that is easy to wear every day.

This platinum band recreates the style of a 1940s-era ring using the client’s own marquise ruby and pair of tapered baguette diamonds. The three stones are set flush into the band, on a single plane, with rounded polished bars holding the baguettes to match the character of the original piece. Designed as an anniversary band meant to sit alongside an existing solitaire engagement ring, it preserves the vintage detailing of the original set while adapting the band width to properly support the flush setting. The result is a piece built to be worn daily and passed down.

This sterling silver pendant reinterprets a compass-rose design the client commissioned once before, rebuilt smaller and simplified to four sapphires instead of a fuller stone layout. The dimensional metalwork sits raised above a matte-textured background, with polished directional points radiating from a central ring. A blue sapphire is set into the tip of each main point, and the oversized bail is sized to take an 8mm chain. The piece suits anyone who wants a returning design made their own, in a size and stone count personalized to a second commission.

This 14k yellow gold ring is built around a whimsical teddy bear silhouette, formed from two bezel-set round lab diamonds stacked to create the head and body. Two small opals sit at the top as ears, and four small emeralds are prong-set at the sides and base as paws. The design was adapted from a rose-cut reference piece into round brilliant stones for a more budget-friendly and classic sparkle, while keeping the bear’s proportions intact. It suits someone drawn to playful, figurative jewelry that still reads as fine and wearable day to day.

This ring was recreated from photographs of a family heirloom that had been lost. Built in 14k yellow gold, it centers a round blue topaz held in a four-prong setting, flanked on both sides by a woven, crisscross gold pattern that tapers into a smooth polished shank toward the back of the band. The design keeps the visual weight at the top of the finger while thinning out where the ring meets the hand, echoing the shape the client remembered from the original piece. It suits someone who wants a design rebuilt faithfully from limited reference material rather than a fresh, unrelated design.

This circle pendant was designed to hold three children’s names in one continuous, unbroken shape. Each name is hand-inscribed in a delicate script font around the ring, with the three names separated by pave-set lab diamond bands rather than a single line of stones. The pendant is solid rather than hollowed out, giving it consistent weight and preventing any visibility of an open interior from certain angles. It hangs from a fine diamond-style chain, and the chain attachment points were widened slightly from the first design to sit more naturally against the pendant. At just 0.7 inches across, the piece stays compact and wearable every day while keeping all three names legible. It suits anyone who wants a family piece that reads as one unified circle rather than three separate elements strung together.

This engagement ring recreates a stolen original as closely as possible from photographs alone — a round amethyst center stone flanked by two pear-shaped white sapphires, set in 14k yellow gold with white gold prongs cradling the amethyst. A subtle raised ridge runs along the shoulders near the side stones, echoing a detail from the original setting, and the inside of the band carries a personal engraved phrase. The design was built from the ground up rather than from a pre-made setting, matched to the client’s original ring size and a slim band profile that mirrors the delicate feel of the piece it replaces. It suits someone who values continuity — restoring a ring that had already been part of their life for a decade rather than reinventing it.

This pendant takes the form of a bird in flight, wings fully outstretched and rendered with fine feather detail across the wings and tail. Cast in solid 14k yellow gold, the piece has a high-polish finish that catches light across its dimensional surface rather than relying on faceted cuts. The chain attaches directly to the tips of the wings rather than through a separate bail, echoing the look of the client’s original reference image. At roughly 1 to 1.25 inches across, it sits as a compact, wearable focal point on a 20-inch cable link chain sized to layer with existing jewelry.

This eternity band pairs two December birthstones — faceted blue topaz and cabochon-cut turquoise — set alternately all the way around a 14k white gold band. The continuous stone coverage makes it a natural stacking piece, sitting flush against other rings without an obvious front or back. Turquoise is a softer stone than most ring-set gems, so this design suits someone who wants the birthstone combination as a meaningful detail rather than a piece worn during heavy hands-on activity. The band width was kept slim at 2mm to keep the piece delicate and wearable alongside other rings.
