18kt Gold Alectrona Opal Eternity Ring

£3,100
Alectrona, the Greek goddess of dawn, is the epitome of beauty and charm, responsible for the gentle transition from night into day, the sun’s first light. I chose Alectrona because when I look at opals, I sometimes sense that precise moment when the dark sky is touched by light, and blue shifts from indigo to turquoise.
 
This collection of Australian boulder opal is rounded, gentle, and feminine. We designed the pieces to allow many smaller stones to interact with light, revealing the opal’s shifting palette of blues. Alectrona features a range of designs: an open gold ring set with ten small opal pebbles, almost touching but not quite-our classic “almost ring”; a long chain scattered with opal pebbles like falling raindrops; chandelier earrings that evoke the balance and movement of a mobile through complementary asymmetrical forms; and our classic Tibetan-style ring, set with an exquisite stone alive with a rainbow of fire.

Om Prakash

 

The son of a farmer, Om learnt stone cutting when young. He first specialized in carving crystal Gods for the temples, but now runs a small workshop in Sanganer, just outside jaipur. He has a wonderful sensitivity to stones and has worked with us for over twenty years.

Cutting each gem, following its individual, organic shape and giving the merest hint of enhancement with the subtlest facets, he elicits a gentle sparkle from each. As the years have passed, we have experienced many of life’s adventures together. He has had two children, one a jewellery design student, the other, a training accountant.

Om now has a team who have learnt his skills, share his respect and understanding for these organic jewels and together, they continue to do a wonderful job.
