Helen's Recycled 9 Carat Yellow Gold Mixed Gemstone Eternity Ring

One of the first things Helen spoke to us about was ensuring that her eternity ring was ethical, and she liked the idea of using recycled gold. Helen loves blues and greens and so decided she wanted a graduation of colour from blue through to green in her ring; she chose a sapphire, topaz and green tourmaline to do this best. We also incorporated a couple of diamonds from her engagement ring which, unfortunately, she could no longer wear, giving them a new lease of life. The graduation of coloured stones have been channel set at the centre of the band, while at either end sits one of Helen's diamonds invisibly set into the recycled 9 carat yellow gold band. The band is finished with a bright polish.

This ring was created in our workshop as a previous one-off commission. We'd be delighted to give you an estimate for your own unique ring based on this design.
