A fishtail ring with a true red ruby (utterly serious, as if taking an oath ✊). The metal edges reveal a sharp, incisive edge, allowing the ruby to remain vivid without being brash, and the diamonds to sparkle without looking glib. Do find a companion for your ruby ring.
A piece that is rather hard to describe: gold, diamonds, lots of gold and lots of diamonds, lots of inflow and lots of gain, a round and full treasure bowl.
The classic tricolour gold combination seems to go with anything. Its exacting handling of gold achieves a balance between softness and nobility; the sharp eyeliner-like line in the green cat’s-eye is playful and lively. One ring, two forms of refinement.
A round little flower ring paired with Royal Blue does not look childish at all; it is particularly charming. A large diamond and a rich colour make it both sweet and dazzling.
When vines climb over gold, they leave the breath of the forest in the human world. The emerald’s intense green is a sweep of living colour that crosses the steel jungle; the diamond’s clarity is the warmest light of the morning falling into the book-lined forest. Every turn, every glance, is alive.
Haven’t you seen this combination for ages [doge]? In truth, bringing this combination together is not easy either (no easier than a balance beam). There are many drawbacks to pearl-setting rings that must be mentioned, for example: there is a risk of snapping the threaded post (and we can afford to replace that); for example, if the pearl is not round, it may be abraded during rotation (and we cannot afford that)...
I often see “Graff three-stone, how should the proportions be changed?” Where exactly does the proportion differ? The simpler the design, the higher the craftsmanship demands. Like this water-drop sapphire ring, the curve of the centre stone, the angle of the accent diamonds, and the fit of the setting all hide standards that cannot be seen. A good proportion allows the sapphire’s depth and the diamond’s clarity to fall into...
Whose Lucky Yellow Diamond Ring Is This? The rich yellow diamond is paired with the classic 1895 style. The diamonds on the ring shank are set with pneumatic setting. On the hand, it looks like a little golden sun. From now on, fortune will never be out of reach, and every road leads to prosperity [doge]
Within the Royal Blue centre stone lies an unspoken fondness. The halo of diamonds is the scattered companionship of time. May every day ahead be like this shade of blue: steadfast, clear, and moved only by you.
I have always had a soft spot for ruby rings with a vintage warmth. The cushion-cut centre stone preserves the ruby’s most authentic brilliance. The old-cut diamonds in the halo do not have the sharpness of modern cuts; instead, they carry a gentle fire and play the most fitting supporting role.
The most special thing about this ring is the hand-carved gold technique. Every gold ridge line was hand-chiselled and polished by the artisan. Unlike the rigid edge of machine setting, it is paired with a marquise diamond halo setting, which makes the peacock green of the Tahitian pearl appear even more vivid.
It is still the same century-old classic form. A large ruby centre stone is paired with Cadillac-cut diamonds on either side. The diamond’s sharp facets are crisp and distinct, while the cool white diamonds, arranged with order and precision, make the vivid red appear all the more restrained and luxurious. With no unnecessary ornamentation, the proper elegance of jewellery is presented exactly as it should be.
The veteran performer, the little trumpet ring, is now on stage again. While sorting through orders recently, I realised that even a little trumpet design replicated countless times still differs subtly according to the stone and the finger. The curvature of the domed surface and the diamond arrangement are all slightly different. It has nothing to do with who copied whom; classic styles are passed down from generation to generation. It is the delicate differences of handcraft that give jewellery its unique life. Re...
All the beauty in the world need not be pursued in haste. Just as jadeite, nurtured through the years, sheds its restlessness and settles into a gentle softness, so too is fortune in life. There is no need to rush for success, nor to chase deliberately. Good fortune will surely come.
When we step beyond the fixed label of diamond ring = engagement ring, old-style hand-cut diamonds paired with sculpted gold craftsmanship become something worn not as a token of betrothal, but as a vintage preference belonging entirely to oneself.
Ding! Your exclusive Children’s Day little red flower has arrived 💌 Who says only children deserve little red flowers? This little red flower ring, set with a ruby and sparkling with light, is a reward for grown-ups too. Today, we are all the beloved children～

This 8-carat sapphire is flanked by 1-carat pear-shaped diamonds on either side. The classic three-stone design may seem unadorned, yet it demands careful thought, with every detail painstakingly considered. The loyalty of the Royal Blue sapphire, the steadfastness of the diamonds, and the permanence of platinum together forge a witness to their love. Congratulations on your marriage.

A four-carat vivid Royal Blue stone is surrounded by the halo of old-cut diamonds, carrying a unique candlelit glow. Every facet recreates the charm of a century ago. The expansive fire draws the eye instantly, making it an unmissable piece in the jewellery box.
The highly translucent cabochon base allows light to pass through unhindered. The domed surface softens into a dewy, lustrous, almost gel-like glow, with ripples hidden within stillness. The outer rose-cut diamonds outline this "droplet" with a halo of light, while cool white metal makes its clarity even more pronounced.
Yellow sapphires are born with a sense of luxury. The square-cut centre stone sets the tone, while step-cut diamonds lay down symmetrical stair-step lines, a classic expression of Art Deco. Retro and modern coexist, and with a lift of the hand there is the opulence of a gilt age, carrying us back to a time of economic ascent.
The broad fire of old-cut diamonds encloses the Royal Blue at the centre. Set on a warm gold base, this coolness is given the warmth of an older era.
As one of the earliest merchants in the market to work with old-cut laboratory-grown diamonds, we repeatedly experimented with cutting in order to recreate the candlelit fire of old-cut stones. This ruby ring was also revised many times. The craftsmanship has been refined through constant improvement, and the details perfected through repeated updates.
The effect of East and West combined is beauty that strikes straight to the heart. Eastern old money meets Western old money, and what emerges is the composed elegance shaped by time.
We have made this American-vintage style before, always in sapphire. This time, the ruby version is equally striking. To give the centre stone better fire, we chose a floating setting, allowing the deep ruby to display a brilliant fire as well.
The gentleness of jadeite is a romance that belongs uniquely to the East. This wave-shaped jadeite ring combines the spirit of mutton-fat jade with diamond brilliance just right. It is understated, yet impossible to forget at first glance.
I wonder what your memory of summer is? For me, it is the scent of orange: orange soda, orange hard sweets. The winding hand-twisted cord, and the discreet ruby detail at the base, all recall that summer of sweet-and-sour brightness and sunshine.
Deep Royal Blue collides with an alluring ruby, a classic duo brought together in close embrace. Clean lines sketch a profound texture; brilliant red and calm blue clash at full strength, yet perfectly balance one another and create their own field of poise. Bold and unconventional in style, it is also a singular new attempt. Within the tension of strong contrasts, a uniquely high-end harmony is found.
A little surprise we unexpectedly uncovered, following a classic silhouette: the brilliance of closely pavé-set diamonds is utterly irresistible ✨ The ring shank is fully diamond-set, with micro-pavé used as a tribute to the classic. The centre stone and ring shank are almost the same width; fully encircled in diamonds, with no unnecessary gaps, it is dazzling yet elegant. A new choice for a small centre stone with a big effect.
A sapphire ring that almost became a tinfoil version. In the end, the King insisted on a three-stone design. The vintage multi-claw setting, and the distinctive “🍋 lemon” engraving on the underside, make this three-stone ring especially unique.
The ring from a couple of days ago actually belongs to two different clients. Ordered at the same time, with the same size top and nearly the same finger size, this classic floral cluster ring is an excellent choice when you are not sure what style to make. This client chose twice [doge]. As they say, classics never go out of style. Quietly speaking (the principal designer also has one).
While waiting, the client was always a little uneasy about whether apple-green would suit the natural tone of K yellow. The answer is: nonsense, as long as the metal colour is stylish enough. The colour of 18k gold actually varies slightly from one maker to another; the precise difference depends on the other 25% of precious metals. Does 18k fade? No. 18k...
The choice of a three-stone design is never accidental. The centre stone is a heart-shaped Pigeon Blood ruby, within its richness hidden an undiminished sincerity. The pear-shaped diamonds on either side are the steadfastness of companionship. With the three stones as witness, and true hearts as the vow.
At last I bought the right souvenir on this trip [doge]. The timing was perfect: the ring arrived in Chengdu just as Mum landed in Chengdu too. Instant delivery was arranged straight away. When the "water" on my hand met the real waters of Jiuzhaigou, the ring became part of the journey itself, preserving Jiuzhaigou’s wind and light together with this ring in the years ahead.
Strip away the superfluous and see ultimate refinement in minimalism. The simpler the design, the higher the craftsmanship demands. Smooth domed lines create a metal surface as delicate as mist, using the most restrained design to support the gentle texture of Hetian jade to the fullest. That is the allure of metalwork.
Its sweetness is not an overwhelming syrupy sweetness, but a soft, lingering aftertaste. Just like adult love: not thunderous vows, but steady companionship over time; not indiscriminate giving, but the composure to know how to love oneself. Even after years, one can still have a sweetness all one’s own. That mature, composed, high-end sweetness belongs only...
This time, two clients chose to make tricolour gold rings almost at the same moment. Another client said that when she gets married, she absolutely wants a tricolour gold wedding ring. It is also the ring I wear most often in daily life. For jewellery, no matter how dazzling the array, nothing surpasses one ring that feels just right. If I could keep only one ring, I would definitely choose tricolour gold. Yellow gold carries weight, white gold...
Congratulations on Family Happiness, to the Man Loved by His Wife
The rich green of Hetian jade unfolds slowly from the stone’s core, while the ring shank’s silk-smooth curve and the metal’s texture feel as soft as velvet. In jade designs, I am always obsessed with subtraction. There is no elaborate design, only the quiet of jade and the depth of gold. It is the restraint and refinement carved into the DNA of the East. It is grace worn on the hand, unhurried, gentle...
The old performer, Little Trumpet 🎺 This time the star is rubellite. In truth, every ring we make is different; it is never a thoughtless copy-and-paste. For each different centre stone, the mount is altered accordingly to suit its shape and size. That is the meaning of bespoke jewellery.
Thanks to lemon boss @I Don’t Want to Get Up, we can finally restore the ring’s beauty. Sometimes, when something looks beautiful but cannot be captured well, it is genuinely frustrating. Wishing for a boost of talent, and launch day is now just around the corner 🙏
Purple Gate | Dome Violet, Star River, Ring The central purple sapphire is the deep violet held within the dusk of the dome, clear and profound, with the quiet poise of nobility. The ring shank, densely pavé-set with small diamonds, diffuses a soft glow, like starlight refracted from the dome. The hand-finished curves bring the coolness of architectural beauty into a bespoke warmth. This dusky violet is the Grand Palais...
The East’s understated softness and the West’s crisp brilliance. Jadeite recreates the misty, painterly blankness of Eastern clouds, while gold and diamonds carve out the linear sharpness and sparkle of the West. Strength and gentleness coexist, creating a style all its own.
It is the cinnabar mole in one’s heart. The red of the centre stone is intense and unabashedly vivid. The princess-cut diamonds on either side are set seamlessly, leaving the face of the ring smooth and level. Clear and restrained, they make the centre stone seem even more composed. The 18K gold ring shank sits on the hand with comfortable softness, yet carries an undeniable nobility. It is not the kind of jewellery that dazzles at first sight, but rather like a cloth-bound volume...
The most romantic thing in the world is surely the first snowfall of winter. Rose-cut diamonds spread a hazy softness of light, while pear diamonds trace the edges of ice crystals. At the centre, that heart-shaped sapphire and the snowflake meet in perfect measure. The cool white at last embraces the most passionate blue.
Seeing this ring, I imagined a young woman walking barefoot along a golden sacred path strewn with petals. The pearl’s smooth surface shimmers with a soft iridescence, while chased gold motifs wind like classical colonnades, carrying the whispers of mythology. In the client’s photographs, the halo of light at four o’clock makes the ring feel like a token left on earth by a muse. As dusk descends over the Acropolis and the setting sun...
✨When I sent the photos to the client, she said: “This is exactly the feeling of Harry Winston!” The triangular fishtail claws, carved in one piece by a pneumatic engraving tool along the ring shank, are as sharp as a blade at every edge. There is not a single soldered joint; the base is firmly rooted in the metal. The cross-set Royal Blue sapphire and white diamonds add a little playfulness to the white diamonds, and also a little more feminine...
Have you ever seen a rubellite that seems to glow? Rubellite is the beating heart hidden in the flower’s core. Its rich, deep red is thick as velvet beneath the light. The surrounding diamond petals are cut in several fancy shapes, radiant and eye-catching like the warmest and most welcoming fire.
The law of the world is nothing more than cycles. We are all passers-by in this world. Along the road, we carry courage and wounds. Half fiery and impassioned, half calm and composed, we journey towards mountains and seas in the alternation of passion and stillness.
From a national auspicious sign in the Western Jin to the opening line of Yuefu love poetry, and an eternal motif on wedding objects in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Two sapphire-carved twin flowers restore on the hand the thousand-year wish of the East: “one heart, one root, one fortune, one life.” This is fulfilment carved into civilisation, and an aspiration for life.
Why Classic Design Becomes Classic Salute, Salute [doge]
The rare 15mm size is a treasure nurtured in the waters of Tahiti. The blue-violet overtone flows in the light, like the night of the South Pacific. Every inch of lustre speaks of the sediment of time and nature’s favour. The triangular-cut diamonds in the halo outline a luxurious silhouette with crisp geometric lines. The cool brilliance and the pearl’s softness complement one another, making this...
When the diagonal stripe of bi-colour split gold appears, that Italian old-money feel rises from the bones. This sapphire ring sheds youthful flamboyance and shows only an eighth of its edge, yet it hides immense weight in the shadows. The little trumpet form is still the echo of that era, but because of the two differently coloured lines, it feels less rigid and more composed.
Moonlight falls to the fingertips, bringing both crystalline tenderness and brilliant sharpness. Glass-type jadeite spreads a soft, dewy halo, like a pool of clear spring water held at the knuckles; the fire of the accent diamonds flows in the light, cool and dazzling. The staggered claw settings make the layers feel more alive, and the silver-white metal supports every delicate detail, creating a perfect balance between cool elegance and nobility. Put it on,...
The lightest kind of clarity in the world is surely a fleeting moment of quiet joy in this life. The bubbles hold a hush within the jewellery, neither competing nor vying, simply blossoming into their own translucence in the play of light and shadow. With the slightest movement of the fingers, there is a beauty of serene days and years.
All beauty is a movement deeply hidden within stillness. This ring is quiet beauty for everyday life. It does not clamour, yet it has its own force, like the blank space in prose, where countless delights are hidden between the lines. When the light of the golden rabbit meets the ring’s shine, it becomes one of life’s small certainties. This is not luxury as display, but a tender reward to oneself, a way of living...
This twist ring is a solidified ripple of gold. Its rounded curves resemble layers upon layers of hope, opening into a scatter of light in the morning glow. Each full-bodied turn holds a force ready to burst forth. The first ring of the New Year does not lock in the past; it defines only the future. Wear it, and your fingertips gain the courage to journey towards mountains and seas. Every lift of the hand is a...
All that is past is prologue. On the last day of the Year of the Snake, let us end with this little snake ring and welcome the Year of the Horse. The triple twist of the ring shank is the lingering curve of the serpent, and also the circle of time. The gold is warm and gentle, holding all the gains of the old year; the marquise-cut diamonds are the hope and brilliance of the future. In the Year of the Horse, may all readers: have splendid stories...
When pearls were first cultivated, they depended on rope to survive. The rope around this ring accompanies the pearls from the very beginning all the way into jewellery. To achieve the distinctive texture of rope, it is not a cheap machine-stamped pattern, but a surface formed by hand through repeated twisting, weaving and forging. The market is full of similar copies, yet few can imitate its spirit. The black pearl’s...
What does it look like to plant a heart into a sea of diamonds? “Love is a flower, and you are the only seed.” The heart-shaped padparadscha at the centre is the heartbeat hidden deep within the floral sea, carrying a gentle pink glow and a fine fire in the light. The white diamonds around it gather layer upon layer like petals, as clear as morning dew, as if an eternal flower...
This Mahenge spinel seems gently tinted by the sun at the equator, soft and understated, yet warmly self-possessed. The light of the old-cut diamonds is pure and resolute, like a loyal guardian or a rational observer, allowing the ring to achieve a delicate balance between passion and restraint.
Whenever a client says this is her first sapphire ring, I always recommend returning to the most classic halo setting. This is not compromise, but a shared understanding of long-term value, able to withstand repeated contemplation over time. The centre stone is a rich Royal Blue, and the surrounding diamonds are unassuming yet inherently powerful. The cool, precise feel of the platinum claw setting lets the gemstone...
Yesterday’s red heart, with its ardent red, questioned love and possession. Its existence is almost a primal declaration. Today’s blue heart, by contrast, expresses emotion with greater restraint. The depth of Royal Blue is the calm after a storm, the certainty after traversing countless waves. It is no longer outward combustion, but inward sedimentation...
The setting craftsmanship of this heart ring hardly needs elaboration. It solidifies ardent feeling into a ring that can be passed on. Delivered at year’s end, it is a most solemn wish for the new year. Love is a structure; it needs to be seen, touched, and verified again and again by time.
The red on the face of the ring is the cinnabar between the lips of the young woman in Ingres’ paintings. The hammered ring bears the texture of years of handling, like a ground layer repeatedly glazed on a canvas: rough, yet tender. Every rise and hollow holds the scent of turpentine lingering in the studio. When light falls on the ring face, it is as though one sees the lady in the painting lowering her fingers, lightly brushing the velvet dress of the 18th century...
When the cool Australian South Sea pearl meets a warm biscuit-gold mount, it carries a softer, misted warmth than the natural tone of 18K gold, and more of a vintage afterglow than white gold. The dignity of the Australian South Sea pearl, the retro character of biscuit gold and the brilliance of diamonds are woven together into a jewellery aesthetic that can be passed down, and into elegance one can touch at one’s fingertips.
I had always thought the depth of one carat was the limit of desire, until this larger cushion-cut sapphire was set into the ring mount. A precious gemstone need not be ostentatious; the restrained claw setting makes the rich blue feel even more composed. Within a substantial carat weight lies a just-right grandeur, and only by leaning close can one understand its understated edge. The seamless pavé diamonds weave like a star track, making the entire...
A rich Royal Blue sapphire condenses the light of the midnight deep sea, held aloft by a halo of diamonds like a flower that will never fade. The solid 18K gold base means every lift of the hand carries a quiet luxury. It is not decoration that follows the crowd, but confidence hidden in the details, a romance understood by those who favour the classic and the substantial.
Its green is not a brightness that sits on the surface, but rather like the spring woods of Florence, sombre yet alive with vitality. The centre stone is a vivid emerald, its rich green seeming lifted from a Renaissance oil painting. The ring shank, paved with round diamonds, is like the dome motifs in Michelangelo’s work, reflecting delicate light against a warm gold base. The whole ring...
The electric blue-green of Paraíba tourmaline is the phosphorescent shimmer moving through the deep sea. The classic outward-sweeping form of the ring shank is like the curve of a hull cutting through waves. Step-cut and round diamonds in full pavé are the silver spray thrown up by the wave tops. The cool tone of 18k gold supports this vivid blue, as though one can hear a low hum from the depths. It is not a static ring, but more like a vessel carrying...
We have made this style many, many times, but the way this opal ring turned out still truly astonished me. Unlike other gemstones, it is not fixed; it is like a book without end, constantly changing in the light with blue-green iridescence. The angularity of the triangular diamonds resembles the folds between pages, while the ring shank paved with small diamonds is like the fine grain along a book’s spine. As light skims across...
I used to envy those with small finger sizes for saving on gold. Only when custom-making this Tahitian pearl ring did I understand that regret is the shadow of the ideal. The originally agreed staggered double-pearl setting had to forgo the offset gap because the band was too fine. The cool, lustrous Tahitian pearl sits close to the finger, its iridescence like crushed moonlight. Yet I cannot help wondering: if we could add the staggered layers, how...
I can’t remember where I once read: when a fire sign and a wind sign are together, it is like a madman leading a wild dog. This time, the fire-and-wind combination finally did a proper collaboration. It carries the innate sincerity and sharpness of Leo, like a sunflower always facing the sun, bright and steadfast, never bowing its head. It is the frankness of fire signs, the sincerity of fire signs, and with a heart turned towards the warm sun, it goes forth in passion...
Every little boat carries a dream set for somewhere far away. This ring has a longer, more slender boat body than the earlier version. Its smooth curve is like the moon shadow stretched by the evening breeze. It does not chase sharpness deliberately, but with its minimalist silhouette carries unspoken distances and your private thoughts, waiting quietly to set out with you towards mountains and seas, and to sail where you wish to go.
This pair of rings does not use hand-drawn matte finishing, yet the touch remains as smooth as silk. Like fingertips gliding over satin, it is delicate, warm and serene. With no extra ornamentation, the warmth of gold supports the clarity of the marquise diamond. The silkiness of gold is the tenderness of daily companionship, while the clarity of the diamond is a promise unchanged from the beginning. It becomes the most delicate companion through time.
The glass-cabochon stone is like condensed frost and moonlight, clear and luminous with an inherent misty halo; the vivid green jadeite is fresh yet restrained; the crisp lines of step-cut diamonds carry the rational bone structure of the Bauhaus spirit mentioned yesterday. A platinum base supports all the elements, with no redundant decoration, allowing only the authenticity of material and order of structure to speak. Within the minimal silhouette lies the gentle warmth of Eastern jade...
The sapphire is the condensed midnight deep sea, a blue that is both clear and intense, gently supported by a cluster of stars and a crescent moon. Every small diamond is like a star falling into the mortal world, sparkling with tiny points of light within the texture of platinum. I am reminded of The Little Prince, which says: “When you look at the sky at night, since I shall be on one of the stars, since I shall be on one of the stars...
Time leaves its trace, yet beauty is immortal. The starburst pavé setting is a clever idea from a century ago. The hand-chased metal texture preserves the warmth of old-world craftsmanship. Designs from a hundred years ago made diamonds into more than gemstones: they became an aesthetic and a feeling sealed by time, continuing a brilliance that spans the centuries at one’s fingertips ✨
In bespoke jewellery, the “hostage” is the tender bond created when a client places trust in your hands. In January 2024, the client brought us the custom brief; when we discussed the deposit, I laughed and said, “No need, I already have a hostage.” This sapphire ring made the client my “prisoner of state”, kept from the start of the year until the end, “detained” for a whole year. What is hardest is never...
So far so good. On the first working day of 2026, the mind is still lingering in the softness of the New Year and has not quite returned. Does this ruby ring capture your own state of "So far so good"? The square ruby still carries the cheer of the season. Wear it, and the gloom of the desk is softened a little...
Tomorrow it is back to work, and the bustle of the holiday fades into the soft light by the window. As you stroke this Southern red agate ring, perhaps the joy of the New Year lies in that touch of leisure. The cinnabar red of the agate is like the lingering colour of New Year palace lanterns described in Tokyo Dreams, warm rather than glaring. The 14K gold band carries a muted, substantial depth, and the gold mount embraces the curve of the agate. Today’s light...
The pale pink tone of this Hetian jade, together with the matte texture of the metal, spreads a soft rounded surface in the daylight. There is no need for elaborate carving; simple beauty is already perfectly fitting. Perhaps all living things have a tenderness of their own. Perhaps as year-end approaches, this sense of comfort feels especially reassuring.
Light gathers within the jadeite cabochon, while its natural white inclusions resemble fragments of snow falling across a lake, creating an atmosphere of cool, misty stillness. Old-cut diamonds line the ring’s edge; their antique facets soften the fire into a delicate glow that echoes the ethereal quality of snowflake jadeite. Chased patterns curl across the metal in subtle relief, while the facets of the old-cut diamonds...
This K White and Emerald-Cut Royal Blue Sapphire Ring is Requested Every Time It Is Delivered. The emerald-cut blue sits steadily at the centre of the mount, while seamless princess-cut diamonds line the K white ring shank. It is like a page in a book that is turned to again and again, needing no adornment, simply remembered. Its presence is like the folded corner of a page in a collection of essays, not because...
This Akoya pearl’s gentle warmth is not a deliberate embellishment. It is the quiet gathered over years in the deep sea, and the almost-imperceptible rainbow sheen within its iridescence. Like the morning light in a snowy country, it is clean and tender. The 18K gold ring shank is densely pavé-set with tiny diamonds, as though scattered stars have been worked into the curve, holding this pearl of sea-coloured light with steady grace. It need not shout, nor compete...
I have always felt that a ring should have a narrative. The marquise shape turns the idea of “long-lasting” into something tangible. The engraved pattern on the ring wall resembles the textured grain of a letter softened by time; it is not decorative whimsy, but a foreshadowing conceived from the first stroke. Just as making a vow to someone is not a grand proclamation, but the two of you engraving life into the details, from...
This floral cluster mount was originally made for sapphires; unexpectedly, when paired with jadeite, it created another kind of Eastern charm. When playfulness aligns with nature, it reaches the highest ideal. The same design paired with a sapphire is Western in its clarity and edge; with rich green jadeite, it becomes an Eastern gentleness and auspiciousness. Different gemstones and jades, yet each shows its own style within the same design.
The subtle life of plants and trees each carries its own essence. An ice-type vivid green lucky bean is set among clusters of diamonds, like spring still unfallen in the garden. The curve of the 18k gold ring shank resembles flowing water around branches, while the light of the diamonds is like morning mist drifting over leaf tips. The warmth of jadeite is the restrained elegance of Eastern aesthetics, blending with the crispness of diamond light; it is not deliberate ornament, but the wish for smoothness and ease, hidden in a small space of green.
All good things in the world are meant to be shared with those who understand them. This third identical 1895 platinum ring is a meeting with one’s own heart’s desire. The classic form is like a motif in literature; the cool character of platinum is like the “silent harmony” of prose. Repeated three times, the same style is not mere repetition, but a further affirmation of this enduring beauty.
Mu Xin said, “Craft is the trace of beauty.” This ring uses carved-gold craftsmanship to shape the metal’s texture, allowing the gold surface to bloom into natural folds, with a ruby set among them like a flame lifted from Yeats’s lines. There is no deliberate polishing; the carving lines are allowed to grow along the bones of the metal. The roughness of cool gold and the brilliance of ruby collide, turning handcraft into...
In truth, whether a piece of jewellery is beautiful comes down, at its core, to the logic of structure and the rhythm of layers. This ring arranges diamonds in three staggered tiers through different cuts. The facets of pear-shaped and step-cut diamonds interlock, and the precision of the cuts allows light to refract through the layers. The claws are arranged neatly in a hexagonal pattern, as orderly as the lines of a maze, bringing the sapphire’s deep blue and...
Craving something is a taste with a threshold. This Pigeon Blood ring puts that taste into practice. The richness of the Pigeon Blood ruby collides with the clarity of diamonds, much like the red and white broths of a yin-yang hotpot: one half blazing, one half clear. The supporting 18k gold is like the texture of the steam and heat around a hotpot. With no elaborate embellishment, it uses the clever contrast of red and white to capture the everyday warmth of the four seasons...
When the client first came because she wanted an old-cut diamond, the hope in her eyes was probably “I want it to feel both like the past and better than the past.” The soft glow of old-cut diamonds spills through the gaps of the claws. The “old” of the old cut is never a constraint, and the “new” of the multi-claw setting is never superfluous. In the end, it is about not disappointing time, and not disappointing the heart.
Though the facets of old-cut diamonds do not follow modern regularity, they unfold into broad, gentle fire with depth. The three-stone structure leaves nothing to fault: the centre and accents support one another. It is also an excellent choice for layering with gold; paired with a plain band it looks elegant, and with coloured gemstones it remains entirely harmonious. Its sparkle is not flashy; when the hand lifts, it leaks a sense of time, holding the romance of another era.
As mid-December approaches, Christmas, New Year’s Day and Spring Festival come one after another. If one were to ask what kind of jewellery best suits a festive mood, it would surely be this heart ring. As early as the Victorian era, heart-shaped gemstones were a classic European royal symbol of “love made tangible”. The glassy pink sapphire is presented in a heart cut, and its high clarity allows the pink sapphire...
Winter passed into winter again, carrying the client’s repeated deliberations over the profile curve and the ring wall details. Together we adjusted the thickness and curve of countless ring walls, comparing the fit of more than ten types of settings. On the craftsman’s workbench were also stacked several rejected sketches. Every revision carried the seriousness of wanting to come one step closer to what was in her heart, and at bottlenecks we could not help but sigh...
From the height of cicadas in midsummer to the chill winds of deep winter, repeated carving and fine finishing finally allowed the gold petals to hold a heart full of hope. The long production time was never intentional; every coil of gold wire and every petal curve left almost no room for error, and even the slightest deviation meant starting over. The waiting through such a long lead time held the client’s complete patience. This trust...
Over seven months, we adjusted every curve of the profile and every measure of the details, refining the shape through repeated deliberation until it felt just right. The client’s “indecision” was never a problem; together we adjusted the spacing between the centre stone and the accent diamonds, tried three different metal-finish ratios, and compared dozens of versions of detail drawings in late-night messages. All for...
The hollowed vines hide unspoken tenderness in every curl. That ruby is gently cradled by golden branches, giving the feeling that your fingertips are softly tapping a carved window lattice. It reminds one of how the ancients would melt their favourite things into little objects to carry with them: some set moonlight into jade pendants, others carved spring hills into the back of a comb. This ring feels more like a half-written sonnet...
The rise of guochao has made the age group that loves jadeite increasingly younger. This simple yet high-end layering look places an icy, jelly-like transparency on the left, like holding the moonlight of midnight; on the right, a vivid green that seems to glow, like a new shoot breaking through the bricks, with small diamonds as morning dew on the leaf tips. Wear them with a white shirt, and it feels like pinning a "double serving of quiet joy" onto the day, carrying the thousand-year coolness and brilliance of jade...
When I took this ring apart, I happened to catch the greenish-gold gem turning into the sunlight that slipped through the window cracks. The grey spinel beside it is like distant hills in the morning mist, while the small diamonds on the ring shank are broken up like thin shards of light. You need not wait for a special day; put it on and it feels as if an invisible stamp of "little joys today" has been placed on an ordinary day, constantly reminding you that life is more than what lies immediately before you. Pin the poetry and distant horizons you cannot quite grasp...
Platinum naturally carries a cool, high-end metallic texture, wrapped around the softness of pink diamonds. This gentleness is not at all contrived. It is the softness that naturally leaks out from strength, the composure of not having to struggle desperately, the clear-headed satisfaction of giving oneself what one wants, the manifestation of ambition within daily life. Because beauty itself is an energy.
A ring is never a cold ornament; it is the tangible form of the hottest intention at a proposal. A band has no beginning and no end, binding “I” and “you” into the circle of a life together. You and I were once two separate stars, yet through love we have embraced into eternity. A ring where sapphire and diamonds keep watch over one another, with two centre stones leaning into each other as if born together, speaks of the deepest devotion: “you are within me, and I within you.”...
Art Deco symmetry meets the deep blue of sapphire and the warmth of agate. The cutting angle of the agate has been recalibrated so that within the geometric framework of the trapezoid border it reflects a deep-sea-like light. The curved surface of the metal fits the finger just right. The V-shaped facets on the side of the ring shank must align precisely with Art Deco’s straight lines, recreating the yellow...
The 18K gold supports the Pigeon Blood ruby, and the warm golden light spills over the setting, like afternoon sun slipping through an old wooden window frame, gently wrapping the flame-red stone. The facets of the old-cut diamonds have been polished by time; light falls into the texture of the 18K gold, then turns back towards the ruby’s heart. It is not a harsh brilliance, but a softened warmth. The softness of gold, the coolness of diamonds, the richness of red, all entwined around the finger, like an enduring...
The pearl rests within the folds of the metal, like the final hush of a deep-sea tide. Diamonds grow along the curve of the feather pattern; this is not mindless piling-on, but light flowing along the grain. The feather formed by the metal is not showy, revealing only a little starlike sparkle as the finger turns. The pearl’s soft lustre, the diamond’s sharp brilliance, and the metal’s slightly...
A six-carat emerald cut is set in an exceptionally simple form, as if the moss and shadows of a forest afternoon were cut into a rectangle. Paired with different rings for layering, the small diamonds are paved along the band like a star track, and the gold and white bands are staggered. It is the fashionable tone created by metal and diamonds, and it lives in colours and forms that step outside convention.
As a natural pearl with no nucleus, this keshi gold pearl holds the tide sounds of the South Seas within its iridescence. Without the discipline of an artificial nucleus, its texture hides the wildness of free growth in the deep sea. The warm light that moves across the gentle rounded surface is the authentic texture shaped together by time and seawater. The distinctive double-sided rose cut is laid along the ring, like stardust scattered at the fingertips. Its facets reflect...
The classic five-stone arrangement follows old conventions, carrying a certain softness unique to antique jewellery and the weight of history. Of course, modern reproductions can never fully match the depth and spirit of true antiques. We will continue to study the details of antique jewellery, weighing materials, craftsmanship and form. Between choices and compromises, we recreate the true charm of antique jewellery, allowing the refined grace of old times to flow gently into the present.
This spinel ring was actually the first piece of this repeatedly requested design made by Xiao Lan Lan, yet it was dragged all the way until today before being posted 😅 The reason was very simple - the photos I took back then were truly awful. They did not capture its texture at all. Once the client saw how much our photography had improved, she sent the ring back so she could get her proper portrait shot. This style is surprisingly versatile,...
In 18th-century Europe, boat rings were already used as a beautiful metaphor for the “ship of life”. The curve of the boat-shaped ring shank is like a small vessel catching the wind. This little “boat”, outlined by old-cut diamonds and rubies, is both a tender welcome to new life and a graceful acceptance of what lies ahead. The cool white fire of the diamonds spreads a soft halo in the light and shadow, while the ruby’s intensity makes...
People often say a diamond ring is the witness of love, but I think it can also become a memento of the end of a relationship. This diamond does not carry a vow; it preserves only the tenderness of meeting and the clarity of parting. Love once grew here, then bloomed; when the wind came, it settled into time and became proof of the path already walked. The diamond says nothing, yet remembers the tides of love...
The seamless princess-cut ring that has been reordered many times is practically the perfect match for a one-carat fancy-colour stone. The princess-cut diamonds set seamlessly around the band are exquisitely made, with tiny sparkles forming a refined ribbon of light. The rich, signature centre stone at the middle brightens the whole piece. The diamonds on the ring band and the sapphire do not compete for attention; they enhance one another. It balances brilliance and texture just right, and on the hand it gives off an unmistakable sense of luxury.
Soft light wraps around the pearl’s iridescence, with a pale pink-white glow soaked through with a gentle rainbow sheen. Small diamonds are laid along the ring shank as a fine sparkle, even the light and shadow seem wrapped in tender refinement. A soft highlight you can touch.
A foolproof vintage ring 💍 The same vintage dream. A Royal Blue sapphire nurtured by time, paired with a vintage floral large diamond. The weighty gold feel is like an old gentleman’s watch chain. Slip it on your finger, and even the everyday feels elegantly timeless.
This ring looks simple and harmless, but those few small diamonds alone took two solid months to complete! A curved surface had to be set with hard square diamonds, and everything still needed to join seamlessly. One slight misjudgement and it would crack or break; we went back and forth countless times. We never make a song and dance about these craft difficulties. After all, making the piece well is simply our duty. Here it...
When the autumn-winter wind arrives carrying caramel and oat notes, pearl season naturally falls back into place. This Australian South Sea pearl ring has a round, full pearl body wrapped in a blush-toned soft light, like the morning mist of autumn and winter being gently worked into the pearl layers. It is not attention-seeking, yet in the moment you raise your hand for coffee or turn a page, it gives off a subtle sense of texture. The ring shank avoids elaborate design, instead following...
No Copy Today, Only That the Man Is Eating Very Well [doge]
The warm-gold ring shank has a silky texture, and that gentle yet substantial lustre is impossible to look away from. The pink diamond is held within the metal, with the warmth of gold making the pink seem even sweeter and softer. The lines curve with a relaxed, unforced ease. The casual feel of plain gold and the refined sweetness of pink diamond create an effortless high-end look.
The surprise in this ring is hidden in the side profile - the row of fine pavé diamonds. When lifted, they flash along the finger like a sparkle that catches the eye. The reproduction of high jewellery is never about copying the “surface”; the proportions are its “bone structure”. The curve of the ring shank, the arrangement of the diamond positions, every fraction of a millimetre is measured just right. The instant the client’s eyes lit up when she touched the side diamonds was the moment this “bone structure”...
If you want two different kinds of sparkle, what should you do? To bring both “crystalline clarity” and “sparkle” into a single ring, every accent diamond was carefully measured and selected for fire and size, so that it would enhance the clear texture of the cabochon green while still bursting into a full but orderly light. When the finished piece is lifted, the lush green, the even clarity and the tiny flashes of light...
Many sisters have always wanted to know which pearl colour looks best with this ring. This time, we have finally gathered the three South Sea brothers in one place: the retro Australian South Sea pearl, the luxurious golden South Sea pearl, and the free-spirited Tahitian pearl, giving you one portion of sauce and three kinds of joy.
This little icy gourd is plump and round in every way. The watery glow of jadeite is wrapped in a green sheen, and a simple pair of tiny diamonds on either side, together with the auspicious meaning of “fortune and prosperity”, make the hand beside it feel soft and gentle, with all the elegance of cool clarity whenever the fingers lift.
What would it look like if the softness of pearls and the brilliance of diamonds were woven together? Pink-white lustre is haloed with tiny rainbow flashes, while the diamond facets beside it stack up with clear sparkle. It has the warm softness of an Australian South Sea pearl, yet also a refined brightness. When you lift your hand, it is elegance without fuss, with little surprises hidden in the light, perfectly setting off a gentle temperament.
The supple curved surface of a marquise full-green jadeite contrasts sharply with the cold, straight lines of the elongated step-cut side stones. 18K gold cleverly tempers this tension with a warm texture, preserving the edge of opposing forms while giving the whole piece a harmonious sense of luxury. This distinctive combination is precisely a gentle rebellion, a lonely kind of freedom - beyond the classic template, it hides a unique refusal to cater...
We have made this style quite a few times, and I had always wanted to do a bi-colour version - with the centre stone set into K yellow. And here it is at last, exactly the way I wanted it. The warm tone of K yellow wraps around the blazing intensity of the Pigeon Blood ruby, making the vintage feel deeper and the nobility more pronounced.
If the earlier piece was a romantic snowflake, then this time it is snowflakes turning into a sweeping blizzard. A 6-carat sapphire commands a grand winter narrative. Eight princess-cut diamonds and marquise diamonds intertwine into a storm of brilliance sweeping across the world. Every cut reflects a frosty edge, and the coolness of platinum encloses the depth of the centre stone, bringing together the magnificence of ice and snow...
Another little boat ring 🛶 A vintage, sumptuous design that is practically a one-carat legend. Under the flicker of candlelight, diamonds and sapphires flash in turn. The choice of old-cut diamonds allows the ring to remain dazzling even in dim light. Perhaps the allure of jewellery is precisely that it lights up life in the midst of ordinary days.
The moment this ring, custom-ordered some time ago, was delivered, I immediately arranged the same style for myself. Warm gold wraps around the gentle jade, and once worn, the whole person seems to soften. You start to feel like a great lady with a mind full of poetry and books (and ideally a stunning Jiangnan beauty as well).
Jadeite is truly something etched into the DNA of the Chinese people. The green of this cabochon is like moonlit flowing water in a spring gorge, condensed into a rounded, harmonious handful, wrapped in clear light. The small diamonds are like jade ribbons hanging down, forming a faint, hazy halo that sets the green off even more vividly. When you raise your hand, even the wind seems touched with a trace of luminous poetry.
This time, it is still a renovation of an old residential block, beginning with the transformation of a once-forgotten luxurious ruby necklace. Before making this ring, we discussed many approaches. In the end, we chose to pay tribute to VCA, weaving vivid rubies and diamonds into a ring through craftsmanship. What was once a heavy necklace has become a ring that combines splendour with everyday wear. Every arrangement is a salute to the classic.
It is that same very beautiful client photo again. When the sunlight spilling from the edge of the frame falls on her hand, she looks like a goddess from ancient Greek myth. The plumpness of the keshi pearl and the classical romance of the beaded edge combine gold and diamonds in a wonderfully harmonious way. Like the Milky Way falling onto a delicate hand, she is the one who turns this ring into touchable poetry in the image. Every capture of the lens...
Blue is the love of the universe. The classic claw setting steadies a pool of rich blue, wrapped in the clear fire that has travelled across the stars. It is as if countless fragments of starlight from billions of light-years have been locked into the depths of the gemstone. The ring shank has no elaborate adornment; its sharp geometric lines outline the form, hiding a touch of technology and futurity within the hard edges, like two planets finally crossing...
We released a similar ring a few days ago. That piece had a three-dimensional domed surface, like the lifted hem of an old-fashioned ballroom gown, with crisp rises and falls and a brilliant, unapologetic sparkle - full of American vintage energy. This one, by contrast, has the kind of restraint one takes carefully from an antique box. The flatter profile gives the entire ring a touch of softness, and it sits steadily against the finger, like a chapter...
It feels as though this is the first time we have ever made padparadscha, the first time we have truly grasped the charm of a "RMB-colour". Padparadscha really is a miracle of one in fifty thousand. Its gentle pink is like the most radiant flower of spring - graceful, sweet and romantic. The diamonds add a touch of brightness to this soft glow, their pure white setting off the centre stone’s ultimate warmth.
A peacock-green pearl is gently embraced by a neat diamond halo. There is no redundant carving; the diamonds stand like morning dew around it, yet they allow that deep green to shine with the clearest brilliance at the fingertips. Simplicity at its finest - it is precisely this restrained halo setting that lets the pearl’s natural elegance feel pure.
This is Xiao Lan Lan’s reinterpretation. In fact, it was posted a long time ago, but only recently did everyone discover its beauty, mainly because I took such awful photos [facepalmR]. The sparkle of the small diamonds wraps around the rope texture, with opulence hidden inside ease. The gold mount does not shout, and the rope texture carries a sense of spontaneity; brightness and softness are balanced just right. On the hand it gives effortless elegance, and with casual wear it enhances temperament. If you look closely...
This ring is the client’s own ritual for herself 🎁 A rich Royal Blue sapphire forms the heart, while old-cut diamonds unfurl into soft petals. The retro cut lets the fire burst into extreme brilliance. The best kind of affection is the one you give yourself; that is the most fitting birthday gift.
A high-jewellery style that has been reordered many times. The oval purple sapphire is the surprise hidden within the design, like a carefully captured trace of the deepest dusk-purple. Its soft dome is wrapped in a gentle lustre, and even the light and shadow seem to revolve around it. The small diamonds are scattered along the silver-branch ring shank like stars, and the tiny flashes of light spread along the metal lines, like a constellation circling purple mist in the night sky...
This time the theme is not renovating an old district, but a dangerous building restoration [doge]. The emerald that was almost shattered has been given new life. The row of matching small emeralds along the ring shank stretches the green intent of the centre stone even more clearly. The small diamonds on both sides spill light outward, and with a lift of the hand there is dazzling brilliance, cleanly stripping away any trace of “understatement”...
In the autumn light of Beiping, golden leaf clusters lay down the base colour of the old capital. The ring and the autumn light become one, while the micro-pavé gold mount wraps the pearl closely. A technique in which you see diamonds, not gold. The ring’s tone follows the autumn leaves. The soft sound of falling ginkgo leaves, the brilliance of the diamond and the warmth of the pearl - all the autumn of the ancient city is set into this ring, preserving that touch of autumn forever...
The depth and nobility of No. 1 Royal Blue meet the crisp edge of a seamless princess cut. Every setting is immaculate, and every shade of blue is pushed to its richest limit. A setting that appears simple at first glance reveals infinite sophistication when worn. That is the meaning of fine craftsmanship.
It is still that retro style that has been appearing everywhere lately! Clients kept asking, “Such an authentic retro style - why not make an old-cut version?” So here it is, arriving with the old-cut edition. The bright Royal Blue centre stone was deliberately cut for maximum fire, sparkling like tiny stars in the light; the accent diamonds use the classic old-cut style, and the moment it appears it is an entire galaxy...
Beginning with Cartier’s first platinum ring in 1895, the design of a four-claw centre setting with diamond-set tiger-claw ring shank turned platinum craftsmanship into the mainstream of wedding rings for the next century. 130 years later, the neat symmetrical claws and the equally sized U-shaped settings remain our commitment to craftsmanship. Just like this client, who finds it comfortable to wear, easy to stack and endlessly versatile...
This is also an old-residential-block renovation project. When a pale purple sapphire meets the retro halo of old-cut diamonds, a dream of vintage and renewal emerges. The original setting made the centre stone seem somewhat ordinary, so we used setting craftsmanship to make up for it, gently awakening the rich depth of this purple sapphire. The old-cut diamonds carry the sediment of time...
This ring captures the essence of Italian minimalism. The gold outline is as crisp as the architectural lines of the Italian peninsula, with no unnecessary embellishment, yet the subtle texture of hand-forging gives it warmth. The yellow sapphire centre stone was chosen for its purest hue and cut into a clean geometric form. The surrounding diamonds are also arranged simply, allowing the warmth of gold, the brilliance of the gemstone and the...
The Royal Blue gemstone settles into the depth of time, while the surrounding old-cut diamonds carry the warmth of a century ago. Every facet holds the light-and-shadow memory of a vintage era. The ingenuity of the floating setting gives the gemstone a sense of breathing space, offering both secure support and a graceful blankness - just like those understated yet enduring beauties in a vintage wave. Quietly unfolding at the fingertips...
With the Mid-Autumn moon full, this 6-carat sapphire is as clear and brilliant. The constraints of the old design once muted its radiance; in the revised version, diamonds circle it like starlight, just as the full moon gathers the Milky Way and appears anew in the season of reunion. Every lift of the hand feels like holding elegance and nobility in the fingertips to be admired together.
This sapphire ring uses my daughter’s birthstone as the centre stone. The blue flame, refined from the deep sea, condenses into an oval star on the platinum mount; every tiny diamond is a fragment of the galaxy, gathered around its solitary courage and clarity. The Z mark on the back, when drawn, immediately made me think of Zorro - the cartoons of my childhood are my first memory of a hero...
With gold prices breaking through 1,000 today, pearl-change rings have become the king of value for money. In fact, we have made many Bulgari-style interchangeable pearl rings before. This first comparison photo clearly shows the different pairings of South Sea pearls and Tahitian pearls in this ring. Swap in a Tahitian pearl and it becomes a cool, individual girl. Pair a golden pearl with the mount, and it gains a little more autumnal feeling within that individuality. You...
Peanuts have always been a classic motif. Traditionally, they symbolise many children, much happiness and enduring prosperity. This time it is a birthday gift for a close friend from the client 🎁 A plump golden peanut, as though picked from the field and then elevated by jewellery’s refinement. Inside, the pearl glimmers with iridescence, like a pocket full of hopes. This “good things peanut” can accompany...
When the wind of time brushes across the velvet of an antique cabinet, this ruby ring becomes a tangible poem of retro luxury in the symphony of gold and fire. The heart-shaped centre stone is a cluster of crimson flame frozen by time, swaying in the embrace of warm gold with the intoxicating afterglow of old European palaces. The princess-cut rubies, set seamlessly, are craftsmanship that turns the word "difficult" into...
When the dust of old time settles on the velvet jewellery box, this sapphire ring becomes the emblem of retro aesthetics. The rich sapphire is like the deep indigo fermented by years, and the oval curve holds within it the golden hours of the jazz age. The diamonds are gathered in a vintage floral form, each one like a fragment of light sifted from the gears of an old pocket watch, rippling in the soft glow of the gold setting...
This ring uses an extremely minimal bezel setting, removing every redundant flourish so that the jade’s gentle texture becomes the visual centre. This "less is more" design is a tangible expression of the Chinese aesthetic wisdom of "leaving space" - carrying forward the Chinese object ethos of being precious without being ostentatious: the restrained matte metal and the simplicity of the stone create tension, while preserving the...
In Asia, if one city truly embodies prosperity, it is unquestionably Hong Kong. The golden gleam of the yellow sapphire carries no gaudy brilliance, only a mellow, substantial light. The arrangement of the side diamonds and every refraction feels like fragments of sunlight slipping through glass curtain walls, with mystery hidden inside the order. It is precisely the moment when the office lights begin to glow - his busyness, and the hurried steps of people in the street...
The ruby at the heart of this ring is the jewellery lover’s deep pursuit of the essence of fire: within its colour lies the slow sediment of the mine’s geology. When the ruby sits at the centre of a fully diamond-set ring shank, what we see is the embodiment of strength: it rejects sugary decoration, and with the solidity of its craftsmanship and the natural force of the gemstone, becomes the Diva’s “self-defined”...
This small-carat sapphire ring uses craftsmanship to break through the limits of scale through “micro-balance”. The arc of the claw setting and the diamond cluster allow the visual weight of the centre stone to extend naturally; each diamond facet joins seamlessly, its lustre echoing the sapphire’s fire and dissolving the awkwardness of the smaller carat weight. The mount and diamond shadows intertwine, retaining the warmth of precious metal while using light and shade to bring out the gemstone...
The fire of this ring feels more like a hidden “light surprise” at your fingertips: when morning light passes through the car window and falls across the face of the ring, the ruby gives off a transparent Pigeon Blood halo, and even the instant your fingers brush the bag strap, tiny flashes of red light flicker with the movement; under the warm office lamp, the fire becomes softer, and the centre of the stone seems to hold a small sunset, while in the evening and...
18K gold takes structuralism as its core, chiselling out a geometric skeleton with crisp edges and corners, while the matte texture gives the metal an artistic warmth by hand. The Tahitian black pearl is a soft gift from the deep sea, its rounded surface spreading a green-toned rainbow sheen that creates a charged visual dialogue with the metal’s angularity. The tsavorite beside it flashes with a vivid green edge, like a break in the order of structure...
As a product of diamond cutting from the late 19th to early 20th century, the facets, proportions and character of old-cut diamonds are markedly different from modern stones. They do not pursue an explosive burst of fire, but under the touch of light, they spread a soft, time-honed warmth. Every cut line is the crystallisation of the era’s craftsmanship and aesthetic tendencies, a true expression of the craft...
Tiny metal beads are arranged densely and precisely, holding each diamond firmly in place. This micro-pavé technique, where you see diamonds rather than metal, greatly enhances the diamonds’ fire, allowing them to echo beautifully with the sapphire at the centre - making the sapphire’s depth feel even more elevated. The diamonds’ brilliance adds an extra layer of lively glow ✨ This craft is truly...
This “ordinary” sapphire is ringed by a halo of small pavé diamonds that hold in its deep blue. Two tiny hearts are quietly set into the ring shank. There is no elaborate symbolism, only the most genuine form, fitting every ordinary day. It has no legendary pedigree, yet it understands how to record the small warmths of life: the coffee aroma brewed together in the morning, the evening wind walked side by side. Countless days with no need...
This ring uses the classic three-stone design to place love at the centre of the “past, present and future”. The centre stone holds the ardour of the present embrace; the side stones conceal the thrill of first meeting and the hope of growing old together. Like Shakespeare’s “faithful mirror”, it lets a deep blue glow reflect sincere hearts. Its symmetrical aesthetic, free from passing fashion, softens the coldness of metal and leaves only the gemstone...
Fabergé - a legendary figure who single-handedly outshone every jeweller in Europe. He expressed Russian aesthetics to the fullest. The design of this ring is in fact no longer related to Fabergé in any historical sense. Yet the details still carry traces of the imperial age: the round diamonds on the side and the diamonds extending from both sides. Every element pays tribute to the classic three-stone ring...
As early as the 19th century, with the rise of the Art Nouveau movement, people began to pursue forms that replicated nature. Strictly speaking, this feather ring leans more towards deconstructing nature. Diamonds are interwoven through the middle of the feather lines to create a dense reflection of fire; along the main vein, we use diamond sandblasting to mimic the feather’s downy texture; at the tips, pneumatic gold carving outlines the feather...
The pinnacle of craftsmanship - a seamless diamond-set sapphire ring. The very first glance made it impossible to put down. Minimalist lines + the extraordinarily difficult seamless princess-cut diamond setting. The inspiration for this setting comes from a vintage high-jewellery ring by Van Cleef & Arpels that was recreated years ago. Though the centre stone is only one carat, the effect on the hand is understated yet still luxurious. It looks plain at first, but in truth...
The centre stone of this ring is a natural sapphire. Although it is only one carat, the finished effect is remarkable. The surrounding diamonds use a combination of step-cut and round cuts, faintly echoing the geometric aesthetics of Art Deco. During setting, the junction between metal and gemstone was finished with great delicacy. It does not merely rely on the natural gemstone for its value, but also through handcraft...
This ring captures the essence of Italian minimalism. The gold outline is as crisp as the architectural lines of the Apennine Peninsula, with no unnecessary embellishment, yet the subtle texture of hand-forging gives it warmth. The sapphire centre stone was chosen for its purest colour and cut into a clean geometric form. The surrounding diamonds are also arranged simply, allowing the warmth of gold, the deep blue of the gemstone and the...
When imperial majesty is wrapped around a sapphire and worn on the hand, this ring becomes an autonomous steward. The double-wing epaulettes forged in 18K gold lift the central Royal Blue centre stone. Trapezoid diamonds, like symbols of rank, and side round-cut diamonds, like the ornaments on an epaulette, seem under the light to refract the ceremonial brilliance of the Victorian era. Every gold line...
We spent one year and five months recreating this ring. The difficult path of study was full of tears [facepalmR]. From being the first in the entire internet to make it, to being the last to release it... thankfully, the result is gratifying. The subtle brilliance of this ring lies in its structure being fixed by two thin slices of agate. But agate lacks sufficient strength and breaks with the slightest touch. To understand this structure, we repeatedly tried, drilled...
An 18K gold mount uses hand-beaded edging to recreate the folds of Rococo style. Hand-carved scrollwork dances like ribbons, forming a fine chain of tiny gold beads along the edge, much like lace covered in morning dew; diamonds tremble among the openwork leaf veins, lifting the soft rainbow sheen of a wild pearl. Every carved line traces the winding curves of maximalism, and when your fingertips touch it, the coldness of metal and the beauty of pearls...
The design combines ruby with high jewellery by LV, melting the bones of architectural aesthetics and the ruby’s rich nobility into one. The centre ruby is fiercely flame-like in colour, with nobility flowing naturally through its fire. The pavé area on either side of the diamonds directly draws on architectural influence. The diamonds are arranged geometrically, and the joining of each facet resembles the stonework of a building façade...
Gilded Crown Feather Gold Pearl Ring
The rich golden pearl is like molten sunset gold, while the surrounding diamonds, seen close up, are delicately woven like fine lace; from afar, they ripple with wave-like movement. The scattered sparks of the diamonds complement the warm pearl, giving it both nobility and softness.
Celeste Jewellery original design, please do not criticise if you do not like it. The design inspiration comes from a 1960s Van Cleef & Arpels ring, with 18K yellow gold condensed into a “rope”. Golden cords thread through large diamonds, paired with a golden South Sea pearl. The client specially found a golden pearl and sent it to us so we could complete the design. This ring has also undergone ongoing craft improvements and upgrades...
This ring takes the peony as its inspiration. Two interlocking bands embrace the centre stone, expressing care and reverence for love. Simple yet refined, it adds a perfect finishing touch to everyday dress. It must be a flower from a land of abundance and grace, already an unbound blossom of this world.
We have made several of this ring recently; it is truly a style that is pleasing to the eye and easy to wear. The plain gold ring shank is what clients often call a stylish K yellow. The beautiful gold surface shines like morning light just gathered up, its lustre carrying a subtle satin feel - not dazzling, yet as steady as happiness itself and growing ever more graceful. Such an enduring style perhaps lacks a little...
Mabe pearls became popular in the mid-20th century, born of modern design’s rebellion against the idea that pearls must be perfectly round. The overall form of this ring is exceptionally pared back; long-time friends may remember that we made a water-drop diamond ring in the same style. When that minimalist spirit is carried over to the iridescent mabe pearl, the metal on the back rests neatly...
One ring captures both the depth and the brilliance of the sky. The oval sapphire is like the profound night sky after dark, its rich blue tone shifting with a velvet lustre. The diamonds on either side resemble the clarity of dawn, setting off the centre stone with greater nobility. The three stones in harmony are the romance settled by time and the meaning of jewellery passed down.
The 18K gold mount uses a symmetrical floral-leaf motif around the centre stone, with lines that combine geometric crispness and natural rhythm, echoing the design logic of vintage jewellery with its emphasis on proportion and symmetry. In material terms, the pearl’s organic warmth, the diamond’s mineral hardness and gold’s malleability create a textural contrast. In craftsmanship terms, the centre-stone "focal" layout and the accent-stone "framing"...
Within this ring, tricolour gold no longer stands for family, love and friendship. In the contest of the three colours, yellow gold refuses secondary softness, white gold favours sovereign sharpness, and rose gold is the tenderness beneath a hard exterior. The millimetre-perfect transitions between colours are a fine expression of the craftsman’s skill, redefining the rules rather than following them.
The client asked us to recreate an identical style. Curious about the reason, we learned that this was a sapphire ring the client chose with her grandmother when she was three. This ring has rested on her grandmother’s finger for more than twenty years. When recreating the mount, we even copied the old traces in the openwork curves, making only the gold strands more resilient and the edges more fitting. New craftsmanship, wrapped in an old form, carries grandmother and granddaughter...
The pale purple metal’s cool halo is like mist before dawn. The oval-cut white and blue sapphire sits within it, while the facets of the old-cut stones around it reflect a faint shimmer. Coloured gold quietly outlines the two different cuts. This ring holds a singular stillness - a sense of distance that does not move in rhythm with the noise.
This ring uses metal as its base, carved with delicate patterns that seem to hold stories of time. The oval red agate is warm and richly saturated. Classical and magnificent in one, it is a unique kind of romance and elegance ✨
The story of Royal Blue from a century ago still circulates. Its legacy, its nobility and its romance. A classic centre stone paired with a classic style is destined to accompany its owner into old age. In my view, the meaning of jewellery has nothing to do with preserving value or investment. It is memory, commemoration and companionship. And the client’s own story can also be witnessed and carried forward by this ring.
The charm of old European-cut diamonds is surely the vast fire they show under sunlight, magnificent and brilliant like the starbursts of an older year. The deep sapphire seems to serve as a medium connecting past and present. Fine carved-gold lines wind along the side, recreating the craftsmanship of a golden age. This three-stone ring is a romance aged in the cellar of time; every edge says past, present and future.
The story of “Toi et Moi” is already well known. Unlike the classic elegance of Royal Blue, the lively pink sapphire adds a slightly playful note to this classic design. Its presence, bordering on rebellious aesthetics, feels like a way of resisting the shackles of reality in one’s own manner. Perhaps it is as the Iron Lady said: “Without freedom of thought,...
Nocturne is the undercurrent flowing from Chopin’s pen, holding the tenderness of night and private emotion. This ring, named “Nocturne”, is an invisible companion that can travel through the workplace with you. It has the glow of diamonds, yet keeps its edge quietly restrained. The small diamonds inside the ring shank were taken from the client’s previous ring, allowing the warmth of the old piece and the new ring to blend beautifully...
The first time I saw this ring, it felt as though I had touched the sharp edge of a high priest’s sacred crown. The mount supports a large rubellite ring in an extremely minimal way, like the crisp grandeur of a high priest’s hat brim. The lines reject clutter and are as concise as a divine decree. The craftsman polished the 18k gold surface as though brushing a sacred vessel, so that every inch of metal gives off a satin-like...
As far back as the 18th century, boat rings were favoured because of women’s changing status. Nearly 300 years later, the domed lines drift through the river of time like a ship’s hull. The central purple sapphire is washed with a deep violet glow. Old mine-cut diamonds and old European-cut diamonds encircle it. The facets of the old-style cuts conceal the craftsmanship of another age, and the fire spreads into a gentle halo - the...
This ring carries a distinctly Italian jewellery DNA. The ring shank has the untamed spirit of Italian jewellery. The handsome, crisp gold-and-diamond ring shank supports the pearl’s rounded fullness. Its shape spreads like waves, while the gradient pavé diamonds interweave with the pearl’s halo of light. Strength and softness coexist, recreating the lively rhythm of Roman architecture.
Sheryl wrote in her book: “Society always teaches us to do multiple-choice questions, but real life is a fill-in-the-blank.” When the client could not choose between two pearl drops with gemstone-like brilliance, why not place them together? The plain gold ring shank is free of elaborate decoration, carrying a vintage sense of line like a classic silhouette in an old film. Simple, yet full of...
This ice-type jadeite ring has a clear texture, as if it holds a quiet lake within. In traditional culture, jadeite has always carried meanings of auspiciousness and resilience. A simple setting lifts the gentle green hue, as though condensing the restraint and beauty of Eastern jade culture into the fingertips. Worn on the hand, it responds to traditional aesthetics and quietly speaks of the charm and stories settled by time.
The essence of this ring is craftsmanship’s totalitarianism. Like premium ingredients that prove themselves through pure flavour, the 4-carat oval cut is an enduring classic. The sharp precision of the diamond cutting and the smooth fineness of the polished metal speak for themselves. When all design is pared away, only the dialogue between proportion and material remains. Only the pursuit of craftsmanship is hidden within every fine...
Two hearts, each holding a different light. One is a deep, shadowed green, like a quiet forest; the other a warm golden yellow, like the afterglow of sunset. Within the union of 18k gold, they tell a singular romance. Every lift of the hand is a meeting of heart and heart.
Still the old performer, tricolour gold. Who would have thought tricolour gold with fiery spinel would create such a different style? It looks passionate yet utterly individual. A rich Renaissance feel gives the whole piece a deeper vintage foundation. Keeping everything you love close at hand - that is the meaning of hard work.
Pearls are like moonlight condensed into dew, resting on a golden branch. Diamonds gather around this softness like stars 🌟 With the slightest lift of the fingertips, a quiet romance flows forth.
Nature-inspired jewellery has always been a favourite theme among designers. From grand natural landscapes to the tiniest flowers, birds and insects, their presence can be found across countless jewellery houses. The inspiration for this ring comes from a tender little sprout. I hope it can help you, rushing through city life, find a trace of natural calm. Never lose the feeling of wanting to sprout,
This is a Fanta garnet with excellent fire, embraced in the most intimate way by leaves. Through this ring, one can easily glimpse nature’s cycle of renewal and endless vitality. Softness holds resilience; the small contains abundance. As modern society evolves, jewellery no longer stands only for love. It can symbolise a woman’s strength, independence and commitment to staying true to herself...
This time it is a very different kind of three-stone ring. Abandoning the safe route of same-colour tones, red collides with neon blue. The vintage multi-claw halo creates a rebellious colour pairing within a retro framework, forming a distinct aesthetic of tension. This ring has also given me much inspiration. Retro perhaps is not about blind reproduction, but about extending a new fairy tale through the craft logic of another era. This ring...
A ring destined by fate. The halo of pavé diamonds around it wraps the centre stone in light. This ring symbolises love, meeting you in a vast crowd and falling in love with you. May we be willing to give one another all the gentlest and most beautiful things.
I think this jadeite twin-stone ring has brought together Eastern poetry and painting with Italian romance. The ice-type jadeite looks like a scoop of Jiangnan morning dew, so clear it seems to seep with poetry. The vivid green cabochon is like fresh spring shoots on a branch, alive enough to burst forth with green leaves 🍃 The Italian carved-gold craftsmanship on the side hides countless details. The beaded edge around the diamonds seems like vines gently winding around the two pieces of jadeite...
Who could refuse wearing the aurora on their finger? The black opal’s oily, flowing blue-green iridescence is just like the aurora slicing through the long night in splendour. The shifting colours at the fingertips are like a glimpse into the breath of the universe. In ancient Greek myth, Aurorae is the goddess of dawn. Perhaps it also reminds us that even in low moments, light is waiting for us. Life is a wilderness,...
This opal ring is a collaboration between the earth and time. Like a rainbow captured by the ages, the opal interweaves deep blue and vivid green, distilling the dreamlike beauty of the Great Barrier Reef at the fingertips. A platinum shank, spare and sinuous like a serpent’s spine, supports its flowing colour while preserving the stone’s natural beauty as fully as possible.
What happens when Southern red agate, beloved by the Chinese, meets the Edwardian-style “beaded three-stone” design? The answer is a rich Republican-era feel. It is fashionable and modern, yet also composed and restrained. It carries the splendour of Western culture and the elegance of Eastern culture alike. From the collision and blending of East and West, endless possibilities always emerge.
In the heat of summer, the best thing is to strip away heavy layers. Tiger’s eye with full old-money allure, paired with a textured plain-gold setting, suits every style. A simple ootd carries an effortless ease. Relaxed and comfortable dressing helps you focus on yourself. Paired with jadeite or jade bead strands, it becomes a new Chinese-style trend; layered with gold and diamond rings, it is unmistakably old-money style. It can even be paired with some...
A year ago, we made “The Queen’s Armour”. Following the client’s idea, we removed the harder armour-like elements. The finished piece looks like a proud floral crown, surrounding the pearl at its centre and giving the impression of authority without anger. In fact, long before crowns appeared, floral crowns symbolised divine and royal power. From Ancient Egypt to France, floral crowns have witnessed generation after generation of gods...
Unlike yesterday’s princess-cut retro opulence, the round-diamond layout is simpler and more contemporary. Congratulations to this woman, she has a new little finger ring 👏
The very first glance at this ring made it impossible to put down. Minimalist lines + the exceptionally difficult seamless princess-cut diamond setting. The inspiration for this setting comes from a vintage high-jewellery ring by Van Cleef & Arpels that was recreated years ago. Although the centre stone is only one carat, the effect on the hand is understated yet still luxurious. It looks ordinary at first glance, but in truth it is extraordinary - the modern craftsman’s answer to design...
Water-drop opal ring. Classic micro-pavé craftsmanship, like a dense cluster of tiny stars, holds the diamonds firmly in place, with each one seeming like a quiet star gathering around the lively opal. This century-old craft is the craftsman’s insistence on perfection: every bead and every stone is refined by time, embedding meticulous skill into the smallest millimetre.
Still a vintage Bulgari style. A South Sea golden pearl carries its own luxury filter. Its round, full lustre looks like a hidden gold seam in sunlight. Paired with dazzling pavé diamonds, the refinement is instantly complete. Wear it for the daily commute and it is understated elegance; wear it to important occasions and it becomes the centre of attention in an instant. It puts “expensive but not vulgar” firmly on the hand.
Worn alone, the Fanta garnet ring is sunset afterglow, its warm orange tone folding gentleness into everyday life. Layered, the diamond ring with micro-pavé feels like dusk has been draped with the Milky Way. The two kinds of light intertwine, utterly romantic. The 1+1>2 combination is exactly the goal we pursue in bespoke work.
Another trombino - a century-old classic with an unmistakable charm. The yellow sapphire, emerald cut, blooms in a steady bright yellow, while long trapezoid and round diamonds are arranged in order, with a platinum mount as the base. Geometry outlines the form. When worn, it is the quiet meeting of reason and luxury, speaking at the fingertips of unforced sophistication.
Chinese-style phoenix crown ring. The original ring design came from a high-jewellery piece by Chaumet. The original design was a tsarist-style diadem. Based on the colour of the centre stone, we chose a pale rose gold. The finished piece has a magnificent, unapologetic form. Rich red and brilliant white create a unique Chinese aesthetic. Chinese aesthetics need not hide their edge; intensity is its innate confidence...
The centre stone of this ring is a piece of amber worn by the client for many years. Since the Neolithic period, people have believed amber has mysterious powers, not only protecting the living but also allowing the dead to be reborn in cycles. Cosmos and roses blooming on either side of the ring shank embrace the amber at the centre. These are two flowers that can blossom even on barren plateaus, and they carry a kind of singular defiance.
The centre stone of this ring is a piece of jade, while the ring shank exudes a rich Egyptian style. The collision of the cultures of two ancient civilisations produces an unexpected harmony. Since Napoleon’s Egyptian campaign, Egypt’s ancient art reappeared in Europe through war and transport. Especially after the opening of Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922...
The brand originally called this ring Blooming Flowers, but when it came out, I saw a queen. You can be confident and dazzling, you can be intoxicated and indulge in it. You can be in pain and struggle, you can be free and effortless. You can be decisive and bold, you can be timid and fragile. You can have endless abundance, without bowing your head.
Still the old performer, tricolour gold. Who would have thought tricolour gold with pink diamonds could create such a fascinating chemistry? It looks carefree and relaxed. I hope the little finger ring will no longer be defined as a symbol of “non-marriage”. I hope we are not bound by convention. Keeping everything you like close at hand is the meaning of hard work.
Today is 520, so I am sharing a proposal ring. After working in this field for so long, I have heard countless romantic stories. During the consultation for this ring, we proposed many options, but the gentleman still chose the “Diana style” that caught his eye at first glance. This century-old classic design seems to have witnessed happiness all along. Perhaps it is...
This time there is a slight variation. The stone placement of the centre stone has changed, and the accent diamonds have been switched to Cadillac cuts. The tiger-claw setting on the ring shank and the eagle-claw setting at the centre stone each create a different combination. Every different pairing can become a three-stone ring that belongs uniquely to you 💍
This is a style that can be worn by both men and women. The emerald cut is the most understated and neat-looking of all cuts. The crystalline clarity of the old-cut diamonds is sharp-edged, clean and comfortable. Paired with round diamonds spaced between the settings, it gains a touch of liveliness and a little thoughtfulness. Worn alone, it suits a cool, refined temperament; layered with other rings, it is distinctive yet never...
This is a purple sapphire. After being bezel-set in biscuit gold, it unexpectedly transforms into something very like a ruby. Fashion is cyclical. Recently we have been making many antique-style rings, and this beauty, shaped by time, still moves the heart.
Seeing this ring feels like being taken back to the imaginative millennium years. Back then, the whole world had hit the accelerator ⏩ In the millennium people felt unease about the future, but even more they were full of hope and imagination. Perhaps the more difficult the era, the more beauty is needed to ignite hope. As the saying goes: aesthetics is the antidote to suffering.
Another piece of LV high jewellery, carrying forward LV’s architectural design language as always. Worn on the hand, this style gives an effect close to a three-stone ring. Compared with a classic three-stone, it holds many more details. We once made a similar piece using a Mahenge spinel, but because the photos were so ugly we never posted it 😂
If there is one piece of jewellery everyone should have, it must be a diamond eternity ring. It is like the black and white T-shirts in a wardrobe: you may not think to wear it every day, but when you do not know what to pair, it is always the safest choice. Have you noticed that the simpler and more basic a style is, the higher the demands on its proportions and workmanship usually are? When we strip away elaborate design...
At last, we can share high-definition video. Compression usually leaves every clip hopelessly blurred, so we are curious to see whether this one remains sharp. This Madama pearl carries a subtle violet overtone; paired with the aquamarine on the right and pure platinum, it gives the ring an exceptionally clean, crystalline quality. The platinum’s mirror-polished finish adds further refinement.
I wonder whether any clients still remember that we once shared a ring in the same design, with a black centre stone in a different colour, paired with different hues of coloured gold. The polished gold detailing gives this ring a sense of jewellery-like refinement, while still keeping its playful spirit. The gradient Tsavorite is the perfect catalyst, blending the effect of a highlighter pen with a matte gold finish. We look forward to the arrival of the next centre stone.
In Europe in the last century, the pinky ring was a symbol of power and status. Prominent families would wear their coat of arms as signet rings on the little finger. A hundred years on, the pinky ring is no longer exclusive to men. Princess-cut diamonds are set all the way around, dazzling while remaining comfortable to wear. P.S. Emerald is a top-level wealth-attracting stone for friends who lack Wood; it also helps ward off petty people...
Mr Yang Jiang once said: 'Deep affection is less than lasting companionship; great love needs no many words, and companionship is the longest declaration of love.' This ring was commissioned as a 10th wedding anniversary ring. We learned from the client that from buying the stone to the production process, there were in fact quite a few setbacks, but the ending was beautiful and sweet. Is marriage perhaps the same, with mo...
The 2.5 ct centre stone is brilliantly dazzling. Around it sits a halo of pavé-set diamonds, wrapping the central stone in light. This ring symbolises love: in the vast sea of people, I met you, fell in love with you, and wanted to give each other all the gentlest and most beautiful things.
This is a ring the client wanted 'bezel-set' yet still rich in detail. For a pear shape over 3 carats, if you want simplicity with detail, the answer can only lie in the ring shank. The Baroque-style engraved gold shank is paired with milgrain edging, while the centre stone is simply held in white gold. It satisfies both the bezel-set brief and the desire for detail.
A client once asked us whether our videos were shot live. Our standards do fluctuate a little 😂 (though, still...) Same phone, same spot... not a single image has the same colour... photography really does depend on luck... please do bear with us, dear honorary shareholders [peekingR][peekingR]
What comes to mind when a flawless Australian South Sea pearl is dressed in a swaying diamond tutu? Perhaps an elegant ballerina, dancing at your fingertips in a sumptuous ballet dress. In truth, ballet and jewellery have always influenced one another. Many jewellery houses have drawn on ballet in their work, and 'Jewellery' is itself a classic ballet piece. Ballet is not only technique, but also conviction...
My first attempt at recreating the classic five-stone ring. In the Victorian era, five-stone rings were undeniably the darling of the age. They are also the antique jewellery design with the largest surviving number in circulation. This time we used lab-grown diamonds cut in old mine and old European styles for the setting. Different cuts help make up for the regrettable over-regularity of modern craftsmen copying antiques. The platinum setting is more...
A ring representing a family of three. Aquamarine, amethyst and citrine represent the family’s birthstones. Bound to one another, they support and complement each other. The two rings can be stacked together so the family remains closely connected, or worn separately on their own, each beautiful in its own right. I think this is the meaning of jewellery design.
Two beautiful tourmalines become a finger ring. The interplay of pale green and blue-green, and the contrast between rose-cut and brilliant-cut diamonds, bring a breath of coolness to the height of summer, like a bottle of sparkling soda.
A ruby ring commissioned by a client. The ruby’s colour is rich and ardent, while the white diamonds sparkle brilliantly. Diamonds encircle the vivid ruby, creating a piece that is beautiful and elegant, with presence and substance.
In terms of colour, purple sits between red and blue. It bridges warmth and coolness, carrying both red’s passion and blue’s restraint. Because it holds both qualities in one singular hue, it has occupied an extraordinary place throughout history, both in the East and the West. Mystery, romance, nobility and good fortune have long been its hallmarks. This purple sapphire '...
This ring was inspired by bamboo, one of Cartier’s classic designs from the 1980s. Its slender silhouette and graceful form are given a singular beauty by the texture and shape of bamboo segments. In Chinese culture, bamboo has long been admired by scholars and knights-errant alike. The pairing of diamonds and rubies feels like a ru...
I once read in a book: 'The best state of love is walking and arguing in a park covered with dead leaves.' On the one hand, there is that distinctive tenderness; on the other, a unique sense of everyday life and warmth. Such a calm atmosphere lowers the noise of both life and emotion to the very minimum.
If your city never sees snow, then perhaps this winter fairytale will do. Eight princess-cut diamonds are set around oval diamonds, forming a lively octagonal snowflake. Precious ice crystals seem to bloom into crystalline stars, gathering the frosted sapphire at the centre. The brilliance of white gold and the sparkle of diamonds maximise...
This is a very simple yet classic twist ring. In jewellery design, the twist motif is a timeless element, appearing in everything from gold jewellery to high jewellery. In the West, this rope-like form was inspired by the Age of Discovery and the hemp ropes used on ships. In China, such knot motifs were already highly developed by the Song dynasty. This...
A ring of soul union: You and Me. Inspired by the love story of Napoleon and Joséphine, the first 'Toi et Moi' ring in history was presented when Napoleon proposed to Josephine. 'Toi et Moi' is French for 'you and me'. Its designer was also the founder of Chaumet. Two gemstones symbolise the intertwined emotions and promises between lovers. The most unadorned...
A heart ring in the same style as Liu Yifei, custom-made for the client. We tracked down the original reference image from the fan who helped design it and reproduced the original design to a very high degree. Soft pink morganite, heart cut, full of girlhood charm.
This is a showpiece ring. A seamless ruby setting with a beaded border, a classic within classic design. Ruby, being prone to cracking, is extremely difficult to execute in seamless setting work, and the beaded border adds even greater risk during manufacture. The flat, seamless ruby shows no unevenness at all, while the entirely hand-made beaded edge remains lively and far from rigid. With...
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the gypsy ring craze swept across the European continent. The design of this type of ring was considered to have been influenced by the craft techniques and aesthetic trends of the time. In that era, craftsmen and designers across Europe drew inspiration from different cultures. The passionate, free-spirited Gypsy culture deeply moved the rigid...
In fact, pink was once a colour exclusive to men - the man in history who loved pink most was Napoleon. This Mahenge spinel ring has a romantic, ardent pink centre, surrounded by diamonds that are clear and scintillating, paired with a rotating diamond arrangement that seems to make time itself more elegant. The sharp edges make the ring feel less soft and a little more resolute, as though draped in...
Unlike the soft romance of the Art Deco era, the Art Deco style that rose to prominence in the early 20th century is known for fashion, modernity and artistic expression, reflecting the confidence and liberating atmosphere of the age. As a new way of expressing the self, this ring blends Art Deco and modern styles. The cleverly colour-blocked design creates an excellent balance of fashion and minimalism...
In 1895 Cartier sold the world's first platinum ring. A century later, platinum remains the leading choice for wedding bands and diamond rings. A simple four-claw setting holds the centre stone, while tiger-claw-set diamonds run along the shank. 130 years on, we still choose platinum, and still use the same design. The neatly symmetrical claws and equally sized U-shaped settings express the same...
It is still the same Bulgari pairing as last time, with Tahitian pearls. It seems to render the structured, symmetrical and compact metal form even more three-dimensional and fluid. Compared with the tenderness of cream-gold pearls, the addition of Tahitian pearls more completely expresses the ancient Roman culture Italians adore - that sense of elegant strength.
Nature-inspired jewellery has always been a favourite theme of designers. From grand landscapes to flowers, birds, insects and fish, it appears across countless jewellery houses. This ring was inspired by the tiniest fresh bud 🌱. We hope it brings a touch of natural calm to you as you hurry through the city, and that you never lose the feeling of wanting to sprout ☀️
In fact, this was a custom piece from two years ago. While the client sent it back for after-sales service, we thought we would take the opportunity to share this ring. Once again, it belongs to the high-jewellery series, as architectural aesthetics have always played a significant role in jewellery design. This ring is the ultimate expression of architectural beauty, inspired by Constructivist and Futurist architecture. Using sharp, commanding diamond...
Inspired by Cartier, one of the Menotte series, a classic creation by Cartier. Since its launch, it has been much loved by collectors and was once hailed as one of the world's top ten couple rings. This ring uses a distinctive handcuff form, replacing the original black onyx with pearls, and the lines have been softened accordingly, making it more in tune with Chinese sensibilities...
On Valentine's night, sharing a dazzling ring. Put on this Disco diamond ball and let passionate love flow with the light, illuminating every moment you dance together. The diamond sphere resembles the orbital paths of the universe, as though every turn were the trace of a heartbeat, capturing the one romance of a lifetime.
Before the New Year, two long-time clients saw the wave ring we posted earlier and asked us to recreate it. The centre stone they sent at first was thought to be a certified Pigeon Blood ruby, but it turned out to be a lab-grown coloured gemstone. Once again, the power of technology and techniques is impressive.
Selected Tahitian black pearls, tinted with splendid blue-violet hues, evoke the hidden emerald shadow beneath the deep sea, lively and enchanting. Twenty-six triangular diamonds are set into the design, inspired by the ruff collar. This neck frill, popular in Europe from the 16th to the 17th century, brought the splendour and complexity of the Renaissance and Baroque periods to every noble...
If one were to rank the most classic jewellery designs, 'Toi Et Moi' would undoubtedly be in the top three. This design, which became a signature work in an era of greatness and fierce competition, began as a rather conventional love story. The first 'Toi Et Moi' ring in history was made in 17...
This is a Zimi-cut black spinel. We used the simplest form to hold the centre stone, while the side profile is accented with natural black diamonds, understated yet radiant. The Black Warrior symbolises restraint and strength. To achieve a matte texture, we sandblasted the diamonds, and the matte black-gold plating makes the black even purer.
This second-creation design is not to everyone’s taste. The inspiration comes from Van Cleef & Arpels in the 1960s. The ring gathers 18K gold into a 'rope'; golden cords thread through large diamonds, paired with peacock-green pearls to create a sense of ease and relaxation. Note: although it is a re-creation, we also applied for a design patent [doge]
This second-creation design is not to everyone’s taste. The inspiration comes from Van Cleef & Arpels in the 1960s. The ring gathers 18K gold into a 'rope'; golden cords thread through large diamonds, paired with golden South Sea pearls. Compared with tomorrow’s peacock-green version and its relaxed feel, the golden pearls bring a touch more luxury and unrestrained spirit. Note: although it is a re-creation, we also applied for a design...
This should be a Bulgari design from after the Second World War, when the post-war spirit of prosperity was gradually returning. Bulgari established its own style: structured, symmetrical and compact metal forms combined with gemstone contrasts, which became a classic. From that point on, 'Italian school' jewellery was born. This is a cream-gold pearl, and we used rose gold with Bulgari’s vintage design to let...
Little Miss, Never Misses. This is a sweet yet cool ruby ring. The client’s brief was that the overall style should not be cute, nor too feminine. The brushed ring shank adds a touch of maturity to the design. This is...
Who still remembers Tinker Bell from Peter Pan, in love with Peter Pan? Blonde hair, a green dress and sparkling light - why not keep hold of that boy? You were already mysterious and beautiful enough. Simple happiness gives us the power to fly. If you could choose, would you still wish to grow up?
Long ago, the world had skilled and careful hands that created rings as smooth as lace, decorated with carving and precious gemstones. And all of that has been passed down to this day. Buccellati’s Éternelle ring series has become the most beloved design with its minimalist form and light elegance, destined to become a legend. This ÉTOILÉE ETE...
This ring is actually a reinterpretation of an earlier LV design. The owner did not like the sharpness of the triangular stone, so we replaced it with a pear shape. This made the ring, which already felt somewhat firm because of its design and the colour of the sapphire, appear softer. Like its owner: beautiful without arrogance, strong without aggression.
The inspiration for this ring comes from the noblewomen in oil paintings. Classical paintings often show jewellery-wearing habits that are still popular today, such as stacking bracelets and wearing multiple rings. In medieval Europe, rings were widely used not only as adornment, but also as important objects symbolising power, love, tradition and faith. They liked...
Belle is the most 'rebellious' princess of the old fairy-tale age. She is brave and clear-eyed. She is beautiful and intelligent. For beauty is found within. Always sunny, always confident, always independent. No matter what is in the castle, the rose belongs to me.
A redesigned ring, also a piece we made previously for a repeat order. It is likewise a high-jewellery design. The dramatic presence of the triangular 50-point diamond is undeniable, and the elongated lines also cleverly flatter the hand.
Jade is a vivid material expression of Eastern spirit, and the material foundation of the essence of Chinese cultural tradition. To love jade is to find natural vitality within it; to use jade as metaphor is to employ it to describe all that is beautiful in people and things. The clarity of jadeite is like inner calm: it is never ostentatious, yet it has its own radiance; it is never dazzling, yet it is deeply moving. As...
Feather motifs are beautifully ethereal. The lightness of feathers, their movement and their splendour all have their own charm. Their airy quality creates a striking contrast with the firmness of jewellery, revealing a distinctive balance of strength and softness. Feather motifs also carry rich symbolism: peacock feathers represent nobility and elegance, while ostrich feathers represent status...
What is the most distinctive ring of all? It must be the bombe ring. Across different eras, jewellers created many classic bombé rings with bold personalities and dramatic forms. As early as the Edwardian period, bombe rings were often used as engagement rings; in the post-war depression, fashionable divas chose even more extravagant and luxurious bombé designs.
A pure Australian South Sea pearl with a silk-like, delicate lustre. The ring shank is set with splendid diamonds, understated yet luxurious, tracing the tenderness of moonlight and seawater.
A client sent us a ring to be 'reworked'. After receiving it, she was very satisfied and said it had been completely transformed. For us, craftsmanship is only the basic requirement; the form is the soul. But a reproduction that cannot even meet the basic requirements does not align with our pursuit of quality.
A plain-gold Royal Blue ring, a free and effortless choice
What exactly is Royal Blue? This 2.2 ct emerald-cut Royal Blue sapphire is a textbook example. Perfect proportions, extremely high vitreous clarity, and a richly saturated colour create this sense of steadfastness and nobility. If gemstones are the soul of jewellery, then the setting form is its body. Compared with looking a little dull on the hand...
A repeat-order jadeite ring. This ring can be separated into two individual rings, one elegant and intellectual, the other brilliant and bold. The main ring is elegant for everyday wear, while stacking adds layers and a sense of play. The companion ring can also be worn with other centre stones, making it even more practical. The vivid green jadeite face is regal and sumptuous, rimmed with diamonds so that the classical and the modern...
At the tail end of the Year of the Dragon, sharing a ring that belongs to Arya. The clarity of the Afghan tourmaline is like the innocent younger princess in Winterfell at the beginning. The thorn-like claws are the journey by which Arya transforms into a wolf. Arya showed me the most complete growth of a girl. She never self-pities in the face of setbacks, and with solitude and resolve becomes that lone wolf. Revenge is...
What do you get when you combine a 1.2 ct Royal Blue sapphire with 1.6 ct of diamonds? The sapphire and diamonds are rich and profound, brilliant and dazzling. Their perfect interplay meets eternity at the fingertips, simple yet sumptuous. The milgrain technique, carried forward from the Edwardian era, feels as fresh as ever; more than a century has made it refined and striking, with precious metal and...
I am not sure whether this counts as a minimalist ring. Its appearance is minimal, yet full of detail. Rather than 'less is more', I prefer 'less, but better'. Just like this ring, we used exacting craftsmanship to shape a timeless classic. It does not seek excessive flamboyance, yet remains true to its own...
The Trombino that made Bulgari famous, like its name, seems to proclaim Bulgari’s ambition to the world 📢 From then on, Bulgari had a place among high jewellery houses, and this ring continues to carry that classic legacy. Also born a hundred years ago, it differs from Van Cleef & Arpels in its elegance and delicacy. Inspired by ancient Greek...
At first glance, this 2020 hand-drawn sketch felt like an architectural ring: crisp lines and a fluid flow gave the impression of deconstructivism fused with high-tech style. Only when the finished piece was placed before me did I suddenly understand - this was Art Deco, a dialogue across a hundred years. A hundred years ago, the women of the modern age cast off their shackles...
Why do I say it has a slightly wild edge? Because it has imperfections: the colour is not the very best, and the cut is a little too elongated. Yet it is precisely these imperfections that create that touch of wildness. The slight tilt of the setting and the embrace of K gold give it vitality, a beauty that grows freely and without restraint. Perhaps this is what Mr Yang Jiang meant when she said, 'The purpose of our life is to...
An exceptionally vivid Burmese ruby paired with old European-cut diamonds gives rise to a classic and elegant style. Old-cut diamonds were originally humanity’s earliest pursuit of beauty, but were gradually eclipsed by more brilliant cuts. Now they have returned to our fingertips. Fashion fades; style endures.
The design inspiration comes from a vintage VCA ring from 1980. Amethyst set seamlessly at the side accents the front's purple star sapphire. The romantic star light, paired with the more neutral setting, makes this ring full of personality while still retaining feminine charm.
This ring features a 10 mm Burmese golden pearl, which appears dazzling beneath the embrace of 300 diamonds. Of the eight large diamonds, we custom-designed a double-sided rose cut exclusively for this piece. In full clarity it sparkles even more, greatly enhancing the jewellery presence of the ring. Though the style may seem flamboyant, it is not at all ostentatious when worn, with a sense of restrained...

Today is Beginning of Autumn - have you had the first milk tea of autumn yet? This is a 2.3 ct chrysoberyl ring. As a relatively niche presence among the Five Great Precious Stones, chrysoberyl’s colour suits the season perfectly, carrying summer freshness and autumn warmth. Nearly 3 carats of diamond accents elevate the overall jewellery presence, making this ring especially eye-catching.

An 13 mm Australian South Sea pearl ring, 1.65 ct, with 8.85 g of gold, brings the pearl’s luxury and singular charm fully to life, expressing an imperious elegance.

A highly cost-effective German-crafted soft-gold ring. Silk-like texture, exceptional comfort, and a price in the low thousands make it unquestionably the best alternative to Buccellati.
A Boucheron-style sapphire and diamond ring inspired by the peony flower, with two entwined loops that tightly encircle the centre stone, conveying care and cherishing in love. Clean yet refined, it adds a striking finishing touch to everyday dressing. We replaced the diamonds with sapphires, creating another kind of vivid, liberated beauty. It must belong to the realm of abundance and grace, yet it is already free of the world...
The design inspiration comes from a lustrous pearl wrapped in lace. It has a romantic note even in its simplicity. The 13.7 mm Australian South Sea pearl has a delicate gem-like lustre of its own, while the diamonds sparkle in subtle fragments. It is moonlight and rippling water blending together. It is gentle, yet edged with resolve. It is womanhood and it is oneself.
This ring can be separated into two individual rings, one fresh and gentle, the other brilliant and bold. The main ring is for everyday wear, while stacking adds layers and a sense of play. The companion ring can also be worn with other centre-stone rings, making it even more practical. The snowflake-flecked jade face looks like a crystal-clear grape, rimmed with diamonds, as though falling into a fresh summer...
This is a 2 ct FP-colour lab-grown pink diamond, and the client considered many styles before setting it. In the end, she chose HW’s classic design. Those who know our clients know this ring sits well within our comfort zone, yet delivery still took two months. The client wanted the design reproduced as faithfully as possible, so we followed the original and used platinum and rose gold soldered setting...
Client commission share, luxurious inheritance. This is a ruby the client has treasured for many years. We used more than 4 carats of elegant pear-shaped diamonds in an orderly geometric arrangement design, creating a layered presentation of petal-like tension while also symbolising a turn in fortune and the gathering of prosperity. The sparkling white diamonds enhance the splendour of the fine ruby, and the striking tones...
Sharing a vintage-style ruby ring that I am very fond of. The client chose a classic cluster design. The centre stone is a diamond-cut ruby with a very sweet colour and exceptionally vivid fire. This is rare even among Burmese rubies. The halo uses seven old European-cut diamonds, highly representative of the Victorian era, surrounding a modern diamond-cut ruby centre stone. Love...
The original was a true antique Edwardian European old-cut flower diamond ring. We recreated it with lab-grown diamonds, with every diamond custom-cut and polished by hand. The Edwardian signature milgrain work combines dots and lines, giving the piece greater depth while also showcasing our superb craftsmanship. It perfectly expresses the beauty of line and ornament...
How many people are still watching the Paris Olympics opening ceremony [doge]? As early as the 17th century, eternity rings were popular among European royalty and high society. A timeless classic: a 50-point emerald cut, noble and cool. A young new aristocrat: a 50-point radiant cut, lavish and dazzling. Both are diamond rings weighing 11 carats, and in brand boutiques they are...
A 15 mm Venus Australian South Sea pearl is encircled by a diamond trail like a river of stars. The pearl seems like a star in the cosmos, symbolising eternal light.

The centre stone is a 4 carat Royal Blue sapphire. Not content with a standard halo, we instead chose a design in which the accent diamonds gather around the centre stone. Twelve 25-point large pear-shaped diamonds were selected and arranged in an offset pattern that nonetheless all points towards the centre stone, cleverly forming a long oval silhouette. 'Love is countless tears, gathered into a deep blue eternity, and in the end remains true and complete.' Materials...
Horizontal-set Australian South Sea pearl ring 💕 Let me show you how to 'go horizontal' with style
An irregular opal, designed into a classic three-stone ring
The client specifically wanted a ring that would bring wealth, feel simple and elegant, and not look like anything else. Ideally it should also attract prosperity and fortune, with a large centre stone! So we selected a 5 carat Fancy Vivid Yellow, in a true Zimmi colour: golden, rich yellow and utterly luxurious. The design is a recreation of Har...
