Fiona gets more diamonds. . .





The thin edge of this ring was originally a wedding ring on it's own. It is a three colour gold twist, but after so many years of wear it was getting a little thin. So it was decided that Fiona needed something new, but she wanted to incorporate her original ring as has huge sentimental value.
Over a coffee, we discussed what Fiona would like the most - more diamonds! "I think I deserve them after all these years" she commented. So, I drew Fiona a set of designs and she chose the one she liked.
I added a 9ct white gold ring to the edge of the original wedding ring and set three diamonds along the top, and I added an inner sleeve of rose gold to make the whole ring a bit chunkier. The rose gold and white gold picked out the colours in the tri-colour twist quite nicely.
Fiona is pleased with her new ring - and there is even a little extra room around the rest of the ring for more diamonds to be added as subsequent presents from her husband . . . !
