Diamond and Australian Sapphire Engagement Ring re-design
I just loved working with my client to create this incredible re-design of her existing engagement ring. A spectacular explosion of gemstones with forest green Australian Sapphires and crystal clear White Diamonds creates a harmonious cluster that makes me peaceful just by gazing at it - like I’m gazing at a swaying forest in the wind.
My client asked me to design a cluster ring to be stacked alongside her engagement ring. Through the design process, however, she decided she would rather combine her original engagement diamond with the Australian Sapphires she chose to make one beautiful statement ring.
She chose these beautiful forest green Australian sapphires to be added with some more diamonds to her existing engagement ring diamond. The result is a mix of serene, green sapphires and sparkly white diamond to pay homage to her original engagement ring but with a fresh spin. The pear shaped Sapphire and Diamond resembles leaves within a floral in a bouquet, arching outwards at just the right angle. Set in 18ct White Gold, the metal provides the perfect background for the crisp white Diamonds and the leafy green Australian Sapphires
"Working with Carla to "freshen" my engagement ring to celebrate 25 years of marriage has been a seamless and wonderful experience. Hesitations of living in different States were cast aside immediately after meeting Carla via videocall. She was patient, guiding the process with her exhaustive knowledge of gems, design and more importantly people. I could not recommend her enough. I was so thrilled with my ring that I enlisted her expertise for a ring for my daughter's 21st choosing two of her stacking birthstone rings. The look on my daughter's face when opening the box and seeing her rings will not be forgotten easily.
A huge thank you to Nina and the crew at Courtesy of the Artist in Sydney's Strand arcade, where Carla bases herself when in Sydney. Nina, your nurturing and housing of artists such as Carla is inspiring - thank you, you are a delight and have also made the process so so wonderful.
Thank you Carla....till next time!"
