Gemma's Sea Inspired Engagement Ring

Matt is in the Royal Navy and wanted to propose to Gemma with an engagement ring which referenced the sea. Speaking through his ideas we drew up a couple of designs which held a central diamond in a classic four claw setting, one option featured three blue sapphires set into each shoulder while the other depicted a diamond, green sapphire and a blue sapphire in a subtle graduation. Matt decided to propose to Gemma first to ensure she loved the ring designs as much as him. To make the proposal magical we created a set of full-colour presentation sketches of the design, perfect for Matt to present Gemma with on the day! Gemma was in awe of the care Matt had put into the design and didn’t want to change a single element of it at all. Choosing the option which included green and blue sapphires we added an extra personal touch by engraving a small anchor inside the ring, a reference to a tattoo Gemma has.

I’m inspired by this design; can we talk about:
