Diamond Studs

Diamond studs are the ultimate classic when you want to look stylish but also need jewellery that is comfortable and wearable daily. Paired with jeans and a white t-shirt or dressed up they offer versatility and elegance for any occasion. Think of them as the “little black dress” of the jewellery world.

Classic Gold Bracelet

This could be anything, depending on your style but we love the look of just one really good gold bracelet, all by itself (or with a Diamond Tennis Bracelet.) The iconic Cartier love bracelet, or Juste un Clou is on almost everyone's wishlist, this classic piece has become an investment that holds its value and can be worn and passed through generations. If the love bracelet is not for you then consider a beautiful bangle or a chain link bracelet. 

Diamond Ring, or Rings 

If you're engaged or married you'll likely consider your engagement ring and your wedding band your most treasured pieces. Representing promise, commitment and devotion this symbol of love will be on your daily wearing list for a lifetime! For those looking to make a "right-hand ring" statement, and we suggest everyone needs a right-hand-ring in their armoury then I would be reaching for a simple, yet elegant, 5-stone diamond ring.

Simple Gold Band 

Much like a diamond solitaire engagement ring, there's nothing more classic than a gold band. For centuries, gold bands have been adorning both wedding sets and ring fingers as a symbol of eternal love and promise. If you've set your sights on another wedding band then rest assured you can still add a plain gold band to your collection. Wear it stacked with your engagement/wedding set, stack it next to your RHR or wear it on your pinky. Durable and comfortable the classic gold band is the ideal symbol for the days that you want to give minimalist chic vibes. 

Classic Necklace

Necklaces are an ideal symbol of love and any sentiment someone would want to keep close to their heart. Start with a beautiful gold chain (we love a Figaro) or a diamond pendant necklace. These classic styles are durable and versatile, stacked or worn alone, you'll be able to style this piece for a lifetime.

Classic Watch

An iconic timepiece can do no wrong, it might be the incredible craftsmanship on show, an iconic design or the significant milestone that it represents, a classic watch tells more than time – it tells the world who you are.

Diamond Tennis Bracelet

A style that became popular in the 1920s and rebranded in 1978 when tennis pro, Chris Evert chose to wear the diamond accessory during her matches. This piece is on almost every woman’s wishlist, and for good reason! It is rare that such a luxurious piece of jewellery can be pulled off so seamlessly and worn formally or casually.
