There is something about a hoop that lifts a face, and I find them incredibly flattering on my customers, often taking ten years off. Rosewood gives this one a warmth that blackwood doesn't, and the grain shows beautifully against the gold tipping. I worked with the wood experts The Branch, who I have known for a long time, to get the shape exactly right. Wear them with linen in summer or chunky knitwear in winter.
If you are unsure about statement rings but like the idea of them then the Lea ring is a great place to start, as it sits somewhere between statement and a regular size ring. The textured top of the ring really draws the eye, creating interest; it narrows to the back making it incredibly comfortable to wear. This is most definitely a ring suitable for everyday wear. The Lea can be worn with just about every outfit, adding a touch of luxe.
I wanted an earring which has interest but yet remains simple, with a strong shape and perfect for everyday wear. The open oval shape has a scratched surface finish to give it texture and interest. Sterling silver, 18ct gold plated.
I love the vintage feel of the Ines, which is exactly what I was trying to achieve. Based on an old coin it has a slight irregularity to its shape, giving it an authentic feel. I love to layer this both with other short necklaces such as the Kat or Claudia, but it also makes a perfect partner to longer necklaces such as the Imogen, because it sits beautifully in the natural "v" shape a long pendant necklace makes.
To me this earring is the epitome of a statement earring. It's bold yet stylish, and it needs nothing else.
Customers are sometimes nervous around it, but once they've tried it they cannot believe how good it looks. Our model Mhairi is wearing it with a black satin shirt and black bottoms, and it's all she needs to elevate the outfit.
A strong ring, like the Nikki rutile quartz, will complete it to perfection.
Stylish and contemporary is how I would describe this necklace. Also versatile through its design, as the coin is detachable so you could also wear it on a simple chain, layered with the pearl necklace, or with the clasp worn at the back. Lots of wearable options but I love it just as it is!
I love a chunky silver ring, both to wear and to admire on others. They look modern and fresh as well as making a stylish statement. When I began thinking about designing the Halle I knew I wanted to create a precious version of the chunky silver ring. Around the same time I had also been working with my diamond supplier to gain a deeper understanding of lab grown diamonds, so I brought the two things together.
The Halle is a bespoke ring, meaning you can select your own size of diamond. If the stone is above a certain size (half a carat, 0.50ct) it will come with full diamond certification, just as a mined diamond would be certified, by the same international diamond certification institutions. I designed the diamond to be wrapped in gold to create a subtle contrast in metals and to add a touch of luxe. The chunky design of the Halle is incredibly comfortable to wear, as the ring tapers in width at the back.
I love these earrings as they elongate the neck and evoke a feeling of elegance; they are pure glamour.
Sterling silver, 18ct gold plated and smooth pearls. The smooth shape of the freshwater pearls lend themselves perfectly to the elegant smooth earwire.
The Georgie necklace is so perfect for the beautiful bead look, currently on trend. Layer with other pieces or as a single strand. As these beads are true gemstones teamed with 9crt gold the Georgie will still look gorgeous long after the trend has passed. These tiny garnets seemed to sing out to me when I first saw them. Their tiny facetted surface and deep shade of red, like a gorgeous red wine, just filled me with joy. I decided to put them with gold to enhance their richness and opulence.
I love the Gabriel for its beautiful shape. I wanted to create a bangle in gold that made a timeless statement. It looks beautiful against the skin but also wonderful over knitwear. I love to wear mine over black fine knitwear to really emphasise the beautiful shape and the luxe of the gold.
Any good jewellery collection needs a link bracelet. The Eva is a timeless piece to which I added a modern twist with the hand stamped star charm. The rectangular link has a lovely weight. Wear on its own or layer with other bangles such as the Angel.
Sometimes I need to indulge my slightly more glitzy side, and that is how these came to be part of the collection. They have both humour and style with their subtle pink stone eyes and diamond look finish. I love to wear them with a feminine tie neck blouse for an evening out.
Although I don't have a long neck, I love to wear these earrings as I feel as though my neck is being elongated through the design. The beautiful sleek drop, hanging from the intricate ball, creates a feeling of elegance and femininity.
How chic against a black roll neck in winter, or a silk dress in summer. Keep pattern away from them, as they are doing all the work and need no distractions or competition.
Dinner with friends, a drinks party or a wedding: they add an unchallengeable level of glamour and sophistication.
The delicate nature of the Claudia necklace with its subtle sparkle is so pretty, which is exactly what I wanted. As the "diamonds" are small, beautifully white in colour and sparkle so delicately, they can easily be mistaken for the real thing. I wanted a necklace that looked like a treasured piece with infinite wearability. It can be worn every day or brought out for special occasions when you want to wear diamonds! I mix between wearing it solo or layering with other necklaces.
I wanted to add another statement earring for the collection. It's so easy to just pop these wonderful earrings in, no need to worry about a necklace, just add a bracelet stack or a bangle such as the gorgeous Gabriel. Casual or formal they elevate any outfit. The matt finish, I believe, adds to their elegant finish.
The Bridget gold earrings are a perfect combination of cool and classy. I love them with a denim shirt. Equally they look fantastic with a more formal outfit; a simple black suit with the Bridget earrings would look incredibly stylish.
The perfect partner for these earrings is the Agatha or Lea ring with their textured finish, they just seem to work so well, making a textured metal statement.
If you don't already know, I adore pearls. I wanted to design a simple pearl necklace which you could wear formally or casually and also felt very contemporary. The combination of the texture of the suede and nacre of the pearl is so lovely; the black suede with pearl and gold is timeless.
I always loved the look of fine diamond bracelets maybe worn with a watch or subtly catching the light amongst a bracelet stack, an unexpected sparkle from a diamond or worn solely on its own. The Antonia is so classy it was an essential to the collection.
I created this bangle to be one of those essentials you can rely on every day and can be worn with any other bangles you may have. I wanted it to be handmade with a hammered finish. This hammered finish just catches the light beautifully. Being sterling silver it will always be with you, never dating. We use a heavy micron of gold plating so it has a beautiful gold finish.
If you don't already know I absolutely love pearls, particularly baroque pearls with their uneven shapes and beautiful lustre. This necklace came about as I wanted to showcase the beauty of a single pearl. So I handpick each pearl for its size and lustre. The richness of the pearl with the gold looks incredible, so tasteful and utterly timeless.
I love these earrings for the intricate cut out detailing on each of the three layers, and for how the layers move. The overall design makes me think of Japanese pagodas. The gorgeous pearl at the bottom adds such elegance.
I knew when I included them in the range how much I would wear them. I particularly love them with a tie neck satin blouse where there's no possibility of wearing a necklace. They're all I need around my face. I pair them with the Agatha ring and Margot cuff.
Never wear them with a patterned top. They should sit against a solid colour, as they have a pattern of their own through the intricate metalwork and layered shape. They need a plain backdrop to showcase their beauty.
The Amy came about because I wanted a simple, slim cuff that could work easily with any other gold pieces you might be wearing. It's a great staple, and it's enough worn on its own, but it stacks just as happily with bangles.
To lift an everyday look, wear it with the Madge gold hoops and the Ines gold pendant.
To create a stack, I love it with the Angel hammered bangles and the Chrissie horn bangle. You get great textures: the hammered detail of the bangles against the polished smooth horn with its natural colour variations.
I love this ring and I usually wear it when I'm wearing a gemstone necklace where the stones work well with gold, as it always co-ordinates and never competes. I love the texture on the surface of the gold and the width, which is almost the same all the way round.
