The Story

"The kingdom in my life is the family I have set out to create and nurture with the love of my life. I wanted a ring that captures that belief and that commitment. This is what gave birth to the idea. To create a ring that sits on the finger just like how the queen wears her crown. A ring designed for that one queen of my life."

The Story

"I've always known exactly how I wanted my engagement ring to be - elegant and riveting. And that’s exactly the feelings my princess cut diamond stirs in me each time I look at it."

"For me, it's all about the details. A simple, classic design with a difference - scallop and milgrain surprise details for the view on the side. My fiance gets compliments all the time!"

The Story

"As a wedding gift, my parents wanted to give me jewellery. I decided on sapphire earrings as navy blue is my favourite colour and I wanted a piece that was elegant and timeless. I adore the design and also love the fact that they are probably the only pair of its kind in the world."

The Story

"I wanted Si Dian Jing jewellery that I would wear, so instead of 4 separate pieces, we went for just one bold piece. I was worried that Jade and incorporating traditional motifs that symbolise happiness and everlasting love would make for frumpy, but the earrings have the perfect modern twist. It's now my go-to wow dinner earrings and I love telling people about the custom-carved mandarin ducks!"

The Story

"My jewellery choices are usually very 'safe'. Diamonds and understated pieces that I can mix and match for everyday wear and mileage. For this ring, I wanted something different. Something more adventurous and fun. Pink amethyst on rose gold won my heart, and I wear it as a statement cocktail ring whenever I want to liven things up."

The Story

"It was our 20th wedding anniversary... I wanted something special and the possibility of using the number 20 or 2 for our two children as part of the design. The 2.02ct tear-drop shaped diamond was perfect. Especially since it could be worn both as a ring and a pendant. My wife loves it of course!"

Kumar

The Story

"We wanted something that was timeless, classic and at the same time different from the usual solitaire engagement rings that everyone got. We came across the halo ring design done by Cartier and Tiffany's but could not find one that exactly suited the love of my life. It had to be special and done in a way where the focus is on the main diamond. One that could speak of the countless joys and happiness we shared and will share. One that would last through time. The design came out beautifully and up to this very day, my wife always get praises from people around her."

The Story

"The perfect pair of pinkish-white South Sea Pearls with amazing luster, brought to life with an Art Deco spin. Timeless elegance. Mine. I couldn't ask for more."

The Story

"An affordable conversation piece using smoky quartz (to 'ground' me) was what I wanted and what I got. I can't believe how the fine embellishment details on the ring were all painstakingly handcrafted and so well executed."

The Story

"The beauty of an engagement ring is in the storytelling. Telling that story that encapsulates your journey to where you've ended up, and that friendship you both have in that one little object. It's a story worth more than a thousand carats. This ring is all that, with a skewed throwback to her love of Harry Potter books, the subtleties of my promise to her hidden in the pearl, and a magical story that opens at the close."

The Story

"I fell in love first with these pear-shaped baby pink tourmalines. Designing them as interchangeable drops on a staple hoop earring was probably the next best decision I made. Now I have options to match my mood and colour of the day, and maybe even more in future."

W.

The Story

"Where diamonds are a girl's best friend, its pearls anyday for me. This particular Tahitian pearl caught my eye with its slight purplish hue on a dreamy grey. We went bold and sculptural for the design and my heart never fails to skip a beat when I look at it."

Ruth

The Story

"Amethyst is my birthstone, and I was definitely delighted with the green variant for its elegance and soothing colour. I have the bottom tip of the green amethyst touch my skin and almost never take the pendant off."
