I've been playing around with this nautical compass idea. Check out this Compass rose ring! Featuring a beautiful rose-cut blue topaz and pink sapphires. Set in silver and 18ct yellow gold.

I’m so enamoured of this Sapphire that I cut. The slight opalescence, the greeny teal colour shifts and flashes of gold. It’s captivating. Can you imagine it set in 18ct gold, decorating your hand? Available for purchase solo or as part of a bespoke design. (Unless I decide on how to set it and just go for it!) DM for details.

Here are a few photographs from the last year, where I have been so incredibly content, crafting away in my workshop, expanding my skills, and falling totally in love with the life I have curated for myself.

‘Sweetie’ ring. Size M. £430

The central Pink Rosecut Sapphire is a deep raspberry pink, with perfect natural inclusions that add to the character and charm of the piece. It is set in 22ct yellow gold, which makes it really pop and adds such a luxe aspect to it. The side stones are: 3mm blue Sapphires, 3mm Amethysts, and 3mm Rhodolite Garnets. These stones were chosen to highlight the colours within the main gemstone and overall they give a vibrantly colourful pallete that almost looks like sweeties, hence the name ‘Sweetie ring’. The band is Sterling Silver, approx 3mm square-ish in profile. It’s a statement ring and would go well with a cocktail dress or a ballgown, although the temptation would be to wear it all the time!

- Size M
- 11 x 9mm pink Sapphire
- Made from recycled eco silver and gold
- One of a kind, unique handmade ring
- Ready to ship
- Sent by special delivery in a Zalisander branded eco-board giftbox

If this ring takes your fancy but you would like a different size, or stone combinations, shoot me a message and we can discuss designs!

I’ve been a bit quiet lately because I’ve been completely engrossed in this new skill…
I’ve always adored gemstones and geometry, and had been watching videos about faceting for years, which is where I discovered , and the courses he runs in Lyon, France. It was a bit of an adventure as I’d never been abroad on my own before, but it was absolutely invaluable as a springboard for starting to cut gems myself. Now I’ve got more gemstone rough than I have time to cut and balancing my regular work demands with my desire to cut gems is a challenge!
I’ll be sharing the gorgeous jewels that I make with my new skills going forward. 😍
If any of the gems caught your eye, DM me for more info.
