What is your process?

“A lot of thought goes into designing each piece. We narrow down the shape, clarity, color and approximate size of the center stone. Then, the hunt begins! Each aspect of the diamond’s cut and clarity is thoroughly analyzed to find the very best diamonds available on the market. As soon as the diamond is chosen, we start to hone in on the design of the mount itself, using the precise measurements of the selected diamond to dictate the scale and proportions of each aspect of the ring. We also keep the future wedding band in mind when designing the engagement ring, which is often overlooked. Most individuals will eventually wear a wedding band with their engagement ring and we want to ensure that the beauty of both rings are enhanced when this happens.”

What inspires your pieces?

“Inspiration is everywhere! Architecture, nature and travel are my greatest sources of inspiration. I love going to museums; humans have been adorning and expressing themselves with jewellery throughout history. My clients are also a great source of inspiration. I really enjoy the designs that at first seem the most challenging. For instance, I once had a client requesting to include the shape of a specific mountain and the outline of a specific music note in the profile of the ring. At first, I struggled with how we could incorporate these while keeping within the principles of good design, and without the ring seeming too busy, or like a novelty piece. However, the end result was timeless and elegant, and is one of my favorites.”
