Alison's Sapphire and Diamond Twist Engagement Ring

Crafted from platinum and set with a blue sapphire and bright white diamonds, this unique ring combines symbols that are representative of Garry and Alison’s love story. The 1.57ct oval cut Ceylon Sapphire is inspired by the sapphire within Alison’s mother’s engagement ring and this Sri Lankan gemstone was chosen for its modern pale blue colour. Eight brilliant cut D-F, VS1 diamonds, varying in size from 1mm-2.5mm, have been thread and grain set into each shoulder and create a total diamond weight of 0.61ct. Number 8 has long been regarded as the luckiest number in Chinese culture and its significance within this bespoke engagement ring reflects the country in which Alison and Garry met. The delicate twist shape within the ring is symbolic of an embrace which Garry felt would be a beautiful representation of Alison’s caring and devoted nature.
