Inspired by the Southern Cross constellation

This lovely, organic engagement ring was inspired by the constellation of the Southern Cross. The four 2mm brilliant cut blue sapphires mark the points of the four stars and the 1.2mm brilliant cut H SI diamond adds an extra hint of sparkle.

Jenny tells her story

Ian and I had been together for just over a year when we decided to go travelling. Neither of us had taken a “year out” before, and so, as we both had perfectly good jobs, a great flat and a lovely blossoming relationship, it seemed just the right time to leave the country and go our own separate ways!

So, I set off for South America for nearly four months, whilst Ian cycled around New Zealand. It was after only ten days that we realised we missed each other immensely. Over the next few months, with no easy means of contacting each other, our only connection was the Southern Cross in the night sky above us.

The engagement ring design is a simple but eye catching shape sapphires arranged in a "Southern Cross" formation across the front.
