Gem pairing

“Peridot is one of only two gems (diamond is the other) formed in the molten rock of the Earth’s upper mantle, rather than the Earth’s crust, and brought to the surface by earthquakes and volcanoes. The gem is deemed to emit positive spiritual energy, promote health and healing, and channel love and abundance.
Orange sapphires are sometimes called “Stones of Wisdom” and are said to bring intuition, clarity and self-mastery.
Together, these gems signify energy and insight.”

— Karlin

ring Design

This Tutti Frutti halo ring is inspired by the Art Deco movement’s emphasis on symmetry and geometric patterns together with the flamboyant and pronounced central gems of classic Cocktail Jewellery. It sits raised off the finger and can be worn flush next to other rings or distinctly on its own, and complimented by other pieces from the Tutti Frutti collection.

Metalwork

The shank, halo and claws of the ring were created by forming and shaping metal bullion using traditional mounting methods. These ‘master’ ring components are then used to create moulds from which wax versions are made, and these waxes are cast into 9ct or 18ct recycled gold using the ‘lost wax’ casting method. The component castings are filed, emeried and smoothed before being soldered together using gold solder and a blowtorch.

Gems

The gems are responsibly sourced by a trusted dealer based in Hatton Garden, London who we work closely with to ensure the highest quality and most vibrantly coloured stones. The central 8.5mm brilliant cut peridot is claw set and finished with talons, and the twenty four 1mm orange sapphires are individually set into the halo using the thread and grain technique.
