I so rarely do prong settings, but agreed to for this amazing 2-carat Old Mine cut diamond. I did a scalloped pointy 8-prong setting with a sakura blossom motif down the shoulders and sides of the band, little diamonds set in the centers of each bloom. At the base is carved a tiny daffodil bloom. 18K. This ring really turned out fantastically.

We started with a dragonfly and morning glory motif for this gorgeous blue sapphire. Then this was whittled down to only dragonflies because the two motifs together were feeling a bit cumbersome somehow.. But then I was thinking about what to carve along the elongated body of the insect, and going back to the morning glory motif ended up being perfect. Lends a bit of additional fairytale whimsy to the design.
Sapphire, diamonds, 18K yellow gold.
