A bespoke solitaire diamond engagement ring created for J & G, featuring a stunning round brilliant-cut diamond in my signature Petal setting – all crafted in 18ct yellow gold. A gorgeous blend of chic sophistication and timeless simplicity.

One of the most exciting parts of the bespoke journey is the gemstone selection. In this case, it was all about natural diamonds.

When you see three or four diamonds of a similar size and quality laid out in front of you, you quickly realise how unique each stone is – even if they share the same credentials on paper.

It’s so important to experience a diamond (or any gemstone) in person because a particular stone will often catch your eye with a subtle glow or a unique twinkle and that’s usually the one.
