Rachel's water inspired Fairtrade 18ct gold and sapphire engagement ring

Alex and Rachel came in together after looking at rings for a long time hoping to find the perfect ring that would also sit in line with their values. Rachel loved the idea of having the main stone as a sapphire with smaller diamonds in the design but not too obvious. After looking at some sapphires Rachel loved the Greeny-Blue Malawi sapphires rather than the very bright blue tones. They loved the thought of incorporating twists to resemble water andCeltic knot-work, as they are both keen kayakers with Scottish heritages. They chose a traceable sapphire as well as opting for Fairtrade 18ct White Gold to make this asymmetric design perfect for them and their values.
