1940’s era Retro smoky quartz ring
Here is a totally fabulous 1940's era Retro smoky quartz ring that set in rose gold compliments not only the wonderful hue from the smoky quartz but looks fantastic on the skin.
Retro jewellery is easily identified by somewhat over the top designs that although often angular like the earlier Art Deco period used large bolder designs such as can be seen here in this ring.
Set with a large 11.50 carat smoky quartz stone that is in the same quartz family as amethyst and citrine, the use of smokey quartz works so well set into the gorgeous tone from the rose gold.
With wonderful stepped facets on the smoky quartz that matches perfectly with the stepped design in the ring, the top of the ring itself measures 18.5mm by 15.7mm from left to right and makes such a fabulous statement on the finger.
This Retro smoky quartz ring not only looks fabulous on the finger, but will always be admired for its wonderful geometric design and use of rose gold as well as the stunning smoky quartz.

Australian South Sea pearl necklace
There is nothing quite like the size, lustre and quality of the Australian South Sea pearl, and here is a truly magnificent Australian South Sea pearl necklace that feels so incredibly luxurious on that you will never want to take them off.
Some of the advantages of the Australian South Sea pearls over the Chinese freshwater pearls and Japanese Akoya pearls, is that thanks to the water that the South Sea pearls are in being so pristine, this allows the oyster to stay and grow in the water for a lot longer than the other pearls as the other oysters have a high mortality rate due to polluted waters. Being able to leave the oyster in the water longer will achieve a lot thicker nacre on the pearl, resulting in a much more luxurious and brilliant pearl.
Another advantage of the South Sea pearl is the size that can be produced with the majority being over 10mm in size. In this strand of 30 South Sea pearls, they graduate seamlessly from 13.1mm to 16.2mm and not only is the graduation of pearls achieved so well, but the colour and lustre of all the pearls match so well.
From end to end the strand measures 46cm and the clasp is both ingeniously and discreetly hidden into the two end pearls resulting in a seamless look when joined together.
These South Sea pearls are so elegant and stylish that they are sure to be appreciated every time that they are worn.

Diamond engagement ring set with an antique diamond
Here is the best of both worlds for someone who wants a modern diamond engagement ring with the charm of yesteryear, so this diamond engagement ring set with an antique diamond is just perfect.
So elegant in design, this ring was made in platinum and set with a gorgeous European cut diamond. The European cut diamond has the same number of facets as the modern round brilliant cut diamond, however the main differences is that it has a smaller table on top, a larger culet at the bottom, and a taller crown. As these diamonds were entirely cut by hand, this gives them an extra charm and character that many people are after.
The European cut diamond in the centre of this engagement ring measures 1.16 carats and is G in colour and VS in clarity and has a wonderful sparkle and shine to it. On each side the ring is accentuated by five more diamonds that add the right amount of sparkle and enhance the ring even further. These diamonds total 0.10 carats and the band is perfect and smooth and sits on the finger so well.
Measuring 17.5mm across from the smaller diamonds on one side across to the end of the others, by 7.1mm wide at the centre, this modern diamond engagement ring set with a genuine antique cut diamond is just perfect in all respects.

Antique style 3 stone diamond engagement ring
Here is a very beautiful antique style 3 stone diamond engagement ring that has been made by one of our jewellers in an exact style of an original Art Deco diamond engagement ring and set with three lovely antique cut diamonds.
This ring is an exact copy of an original antique one and not only has all the detail but also genuine antique diamonds.
Jewellery today is often case made where the pieces are mass produced and although this has the advantage of bringing the cost down to make a ring, however the quality in the fine detail will not be there and there is a chance that the metal has porosity which are minute air bubbles in the metal causing weakness, so a hand made ring has so many more advantages.
And this ring was not just entirely hand made, but made in platinum which is not just the purest of all the precious metals used in jewellery, but also allows the fine detail that can be seen on the side be made all the while retaining the strength for the diamonds.
In total there are three lovely European cut diamonds which have the same 58 facets as today's modern round brilliant cut diamond, but with slightly different angles and the centre diamond measures 0.91 carats and the diamonds on each side measures 0.56 carats and 0.52 carats. These diamonds are G to H in colour and VS in clarity meaning that they are in the white range of colour and are nice and clean with no eye visible inclusions. And of course they have the added charm of being genuine antique European cut diamonds that were cut by hand over 100 years ago and are being used to bring a new ring to life.
When you look at the detail on the sides, set among the beautiful scroll work is a single cut diamond to add to the charm and character and is exactly as the original ring had.
Then to complete the perfection, the sides have the most beautiful detail and craftsmanship and from the top measures 17mm from left to right by 6.8mm wide.
This is such a beautiful diamond engagement ring that has the past and the present combined in one beautiful ring.
