RINGS

Designer fine rings offer women stunning options in rare metals and precious stones, evoking an unparalleled sense of timeless luxury. Expressing individuality, life experience, and refinement of character, high-end rings have long served as the physical compliment to vital life events, whether that be an engagement or a high-profile formal affair of any stripe. Contemporary designers honor this legacy while making room for new contingencies of use, with heritage and avant-garde offerings proliferating in a range of materials and profiles. Perfectly colored and natural diamonds and crystals dazzle the eye with individuated effects, featuring in arrangements from the classic prong style to pavé set rings. Meticulously selected Akoya, Tahitian, and white freshwater pearls give a naturally luminous, perfect organic accent. Bands composed of 18K rose gold, or yellow and white gold, hold to traditional opulence, while elsewhere one finds technical materials like titanium as base, bringing new ideas to the arena of fine jewelry. Eschewing convention by other means, open band rings flirt with the physical laws governing a ring’s very utility, offering contrasting geometric curvatures and embellishments that guide the eye to a focal point of unanticipated negative space.
