Rings like this are what we live for - these are the pieces that make our hearts sing. In no uncertain terms if Kirsty did not have a big parti round solitaire to call her own, this would not be making it near the shop. 

This parti is like muted tartan, and totally the colour of male peacocks' plume. The fabulous blues, greens and teals all meld in a hazy party and glisten in the most fabulous subdued fashion. Technically stones with hazy inclusions like this are less valuable than their clear counterparts, but something about stones like this make our hearts sing. Their uniqueness, their colour palette, and the fact that this slightly understated colour play will literally go with everything. 

This stone definitely prefers the dappled shade - where the colours seem stronger and more clear. In the bright sunshine the silky inclusions (which cause that hazy appearance) can catch the light and look like pillars of sunshine peering through the clouds. 

Held in a chunky 6 claw 9ct yellow gold setting this is a great every - and so wearable every day.

FAQ

Sizing

What do we mean when we say a ring is "sizeable"? Well, most standard rings can be made bigger or smaller by up to three letter sizes. If we say the item is "moderately sizeable", this usually means about 1 size, and if we say it is "not sizeable" or that "sizing is not recommended" it will be due to the construction - it could be age related, pattern related, have enamel etc.

We can happily help with sizing of rings, so please do get it touch if we can give you a quote.

Current prices are: $40 for sizing down, $40 for rhodium plating (all white gold rings), and sizing up starts at $50 - and depends on the carat of gold, width of band and number of sizes. These are subject to change at any time and remain linked to the volatile changes in precious metals.

Time frames - sizing is usually complete within 3 weeks.

Lay-by

As well as Afterpay and Paypal Pay-in-4 which are available at checkout, we also do traditional lay-by.
