Aside from diamonds, are there any popular stones used in engagement rings? Or any stones that you suggest to create a more unique style?
I want to make heirlooms for families so I tend to work mostly with diamonds and sapphires. These are the hardest gems and have the best chance of surviving a life time.
I also love rubies and they wear well also.
Why does Lucy Folk choose to use 18ct Gold with diamonds?
Both materials have magic qualities and an attraction that is difficult to define.
From a technical angle 18ct yellow gold is such a beautiful material to work with. It behaves beautifully on the bench when cutting, hammering, soldering and the colour is warm and rich!
Diamonds manipulate light and are mesmerising.
Ultimately 18ct yellow gold and diamonds are the perfect lovers, they complement each and are so sexy!
