This Reef ring is inspired by the algae, a life form that supports our world’s oceans, and the coral that supports and surrounds it. This ring formed the ‘Growth’ category in the ‘Power of Plants’ collection, a capsule release that focused on the abilities of plants. This ring can be made with the precious metal of your choice, and gemstones of your choice.
Most reef-building corals contain photosynthetic algae, called zooxanthellae, that live in their tissues.
The corals and algae have a mutualistic relationship. The coral provides the algae with a protected environment and compounds they need for photosynthesis. They are called micro-algae (macro-algae is seaweed) and can double in mass in just 24 hours!
They might save our future due to their stability in any water source of any size, they also soak up heavy metals, metabolising them into safer chemicals - something humans have had no way of disposing of until now, these metals are produced during the mining process of precious metals and gemstones.
These heavy metals like lead, arsenic , cadmium and mercury cause land slides, acid rain and pollution to local waterways to name a few! These two rings are inspired by the host coral, the first is 9k rose gold set with tanzanites, diamonds and one sapphire. The second ring is made from recycled silver and showcases the natural matrix form of wild coral.
Please note:
Some of these images are CAD renders, this means it is a computer generated image, creating a very close representation of how the finished piece will look without being able to see it in real life.
Renders can never be exactly the same as a hand-finished jewellery so please keep that in mind, this is the same for the gemstone colours too.
If the jewellery contains a gemstone or multiple gemstones, the price is based upon tourmalines and you will be contacted for your choice of gemstone options.

This Pitcher ring is inspired by the incredible pitcher plant, a life form that wows all who see it. This ring is set with the gemstone of your choice and metal of your choice, although pricing for this ring is based upon a tourmaline and 9ct yellow gold. This ring formed the ‘carnivorous’ category in the ‘Power of Plants’ collection, a capsule release that focused on the abilities of plants.
The pitcher plant is a fascinating, beautiful and carnivorous type of plant that includes several species across the globe.
It attracts insects to it using the scents of nectar and already-captured dead insects, and once inside, insects cannot escape and drown in a pool of water at the bottom.
It is located along the east coast of North America, in bogs and other wet locations with acidic soil. In fact, it can happily live in low nutrient soil because it gains its nutrients from the animals it traps.

This ring is made with the recycled precious metal of your choice. Its design features a stylised olive branch, that creates an eternal loop around the finger. The name ‘Kotinos’ was the ancient Greek term for the traditional olive branch wreath worn on winning olympians heads.
The olive branch has been known to symbolise many things, such as peace, wisdom and victory.
The trunk of the olive tree signifies fertility and prosperity, while the oil represents the divine essence.
Greek gods were believed to have been born under its branches, and garlands of olive leaves were worn by winners in the first Olympic Games, victorious gladiators and Roman emperors.
The Mediterranean people knew of the secrets of olives long before scientists. Its health benefits are numerous, with anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, stroke and cholesterol reducing properties alongside a high concentration of antioxidants to name just a few.

This ring was inspired by kelp from the British coastline. It’s made from recycled gold or silver, depending on which you choose.
Seaweed plays an important role in marine ecosystems, providing food and shelter for ocean life, while absorbing and storing carbon which helps combat ocean acidification.
The plant itself is mesmerising to watch move under the water, ebbing and flowing with the rhythm of ocean currents. These long gentle lines served as inspiration for this piece.

Most reef-building corals contain photosynthetic algae, called zooxanthellae, that live in their tissues.

This algae that lives inside coral is micro-algae (macro-algae is seaweed) and can double in mass in just 24 hours! They might save our future due to their stability in water sources of any size.
