Here's one of my versions of the Lines ring.
There are so many things I like about this one...
The colour contrast of the white gold band and the yellow gold wire.
The gorgeous Montana sapphire in this unique colour and cut.
The luxurious, 18ct yellow gold bezel setting.
The strategic position of the setting on the band, half on half off, floating and making it even more flattering on the finger of the wearer.
The D shape which makes it super comfortable to wear, even on fingers with pronounced knuckles, and stops it from spinning. You can hardly feel it as it's flat on the side. The flat top of the D shape allows more room for the design to show and makes it possible to show the asymmetry of it in the position of the gemstone, where the lines end. It wouldn't show on a round ring as it would move and the stone would end up in the centre or even underneath, if it turned around the finger.
And finally, I like the fact that I designed it and made it, all by hand, from scratch, I set the sapphire in my studio and a lovely woman is now wearing it, a long way away from here, at her home, in the Republic of Ireland!
