Catch up on news from around the region RING OF CHANGES Hatton Garden-based fine jeweller Ruth Tomlinson has created WondeRings Marine, a new collection of bridal jewellery that’s sure to add the wow factor to events. Ruth wanted to represent the journey of the marine diamonds and the water movement in her jewellery designs using Mitsuro Hikime, a lesser-known wax of Japanese origin. The wax has a beautiful sticky yet stretchy quality, which allowed Ruth to create flowing lines and textures to resemble the waters that carry the diamonds into the ocean. She shares, “We’re committed to sourcing our materials ethically and sustainably, exclusively using 100 per cent recycled gold and individually sourced gemstones that are mostly antique or old cut that we can upcycle. I’m delighted to source through Ocean Diamonds with this collection, as it means we can offer our clients another solution regarding provenance.” The new collection evokes this sense of discovery, with each piece designed intentionally to draw focus onto these precious stones just as they were revealed on the ocean bed among crystals of sand. When creating this design, Ruth felt enthralled by the sense of delight the divers must have felt when discovering the hidden treasures.
