This set of wedding bands: The ‘solitaire’ with an architectural rosette flanked by olive branches, plus a pair of fluted column wedding bands. I think these turned out wonderfully.

Custom designed wedding set: Water splashing and waves solitaire, set with a lovely delicate blue aquamarine and two diamonds. The wedding band is a nice wide band carved with an open ocean and breaking waves motif. 14K white gold.
The bezel was left open to get a peek of that nice deep pavilion, and to allow additional light to enter the stone from the side. Many more pics after the click!

One of my customers sent me a note recently letting me know she saw my ring on an online Chinese marketplace, so I did an image search, and sure enough, there it was! On several sites! (Many of which I’d never even heard of.) In fact, eBay alone had over 20 different listings for my ring.
Of course, I did what any outraged artist would do when she discovers that not only did someone blatantly rip off her design and go big with it, but they were also using all my own photos of my custom ring to sell it: I ordered one.

This was a re-do of a wedding solitaire: I removed this 1ct emerald-cut diamond from its original setting, and designed a new one around it. The motif is lilies + leaves framing the stone, bulbs and roots entwined across the base of the band, all very three-dimensional and sculptural in styling. Little 2mm Old European Cut diamonds are set in the centers of the blooms.
The bezel sides are open so you can get a peek of the diamond pavilion, and also to let a little additional light into the stone. Very happy with how the ring turned out.
