New Madison ring....

In 18ct yellow gold this time.  Always a very popular design but just the third version we have ever made... staying exclusive as they are not the same as each other.

 

0.72ct Princess cut diamond (G, VS1) claw set with a 0.41ct diamond pave set shank.

Oval aquamarine with a four claw setting and pave set diamond shank. Set in platinum.

An great example of simple design and elegance. A classic look with a big aquamarine and the all round sparkle of the the pave set band and setting. This stone was the one brought out of the safe with a guard!

Emerald cut Sapphire with princess cut diamonds engagement ring. We made this design several years ago.. but someone (shock-horror!) ordered it... again! Always nice to have another go at it.

Irregular wedding ring in palladium.... this is unusual I don't expect to asked to make another one... it is totally random! We like.

We don't normally work in palladium - the jeweller HATES it as it is a. not what he is used to and b. tricky to work with... but gold and platinum prices have gone up so far that sometimes a compromise needs to be made.

1.80ct F VS square cushion cut diamond with pave set claw set in platinum.

We've made this design before but this time it has a square cushion cut instead of the princess cut.... looks even better in reality.

Emerald cut emerald ring

Purple sapphire engagement ring

If at first you don't succeed... make it again! This ring was just re-made as the client wasn't happy with the original design (he unfortunately did not look at the original design specs.... so this had to be altered quite a bit)

Purple sapphire and aquamarine engagement ring: 1.96ct Emerald cut purple sapphire in a rub-over setting and six 3 x 2mm channel set baguette aquamarine shoulders. Set in 18ct white gold.

This is the original which we had to remake: http://rumouronline.blogspot.com/2010/02/purple-sapphire-custom-engagement-ring.html You will notice that the central stone was higher on this version (as it was in the very first version we made in 2005)

3.5ct oval Ceylon Sapphire with 2.50cts brilliant cut diamond cluster set in platinum and 18ct yellow gold.

The client for the ring bought the sapphire in Sri Lanka not being 100% sure that they were buying a real stone. It is!

Katia in smokey quartz necklace

My first attempt at taking model photos. I took several model shots for our 2004 Rumour Jewellery catalogue front cover... this was one we didn't use. A nice shot but not quite what we wanted for the pearl and smoky quartz disc necklace.

I had previously posted this, but the image was recently mildly tweaked (Katia says she's a bit vain...!)

Can you believe that this is our only stock ring...? Everything we make goes to the owner immediately so this is a rare thing.

A really nice oval Ceylon Sapphire with a diamond cluster all in platinum. Classic and pretty. If someone makes a sensible offer I suppose we will have to let it go!

Another view of this 11 x 9mm Emerald Cut Aquamarine with step-down trapezoid diamonds and baguette diamonds set in platinum. From the side you can see the way that the diamond trapezoids flow from the central emerald cut aquamarine into the side baguettes.

11 x 9mm Emerald Cut Aquamarine with step-down trapezoid diamonds and baguette diamonds set in platinum. We were particulary pleased with the setting around the trapezoid diamonds and the double claws on the aquamarine... more impoprtantly so was the owner!

One of the very best aquamarine engagement ring designs we have done in my humble opinion! Photographed for Rumour Jewellery Bespoke portfolio

1.96ct Emerald cut purple sapphire in a rub-over setting and six 3 x 2mm channel set baguette aquamarine shoulders. Set in 18ct white gold. The aquarmarines are delicate so our setter was very nervous setting this one!

Yellow and rose gold cocktail ring

Yellow and rose gold cocktail ring, originally uploaded by rmrayner.

This perfectly made yellow and rose gold double-decker diamond cocktail ring is shown here with a briliiant cut diamond, but if you wanted to keep it in the realms of the affordable it can be set with any other coloured stone too. If you look at the shank you will see our little hidden diamond on the inside... our signature.

Cushion cut sapphire and brilliant engagement ring

A classic sapphire and diamond engagement ring I snapped for our bespoke jewellery portfolio and website. Note the double claws on the settings and knife edge shank... all little design features that help set this ring apart from any imitators.

"Oval and Pear" 0.42ct Oval Diamond with 0.40ct pear shaped diamond shoulders.

Traditional elegance in this simple 18ct gold engagement ring that although not the most exciting ring does suit many buyers. I have another view of this ring posted in June last year, but this one gives you a bit of a better idea about the design.

Princess cut sapphire & diamond chequered ring with trilliant cut diamond shoulders set in platinum.

Designed to be totally original and stylish, this ring is made in platinum for strength whilst the art deco form is thanks to the client's love of the era. The shoulder diamonds were added to the design three days before it was actually completed.
