Ring the changes…

If there’s one brand that typifies diamond jewellery above all others – it’s De Beers. Although the company has been in existence for over 125 years – both mining and pioneering the now-standard grading system for the precious gem – it has only been creating stunning jewellery since 2001. A relative newcomer! Not to be outdone by longer-established houses, De Beers regularly releases palpitation-inducing new collections and this year’s Horizon collection of 4 rings is a stunner. Why Horizon? Well the word itself comes from the Greek for “separating circle” and, appropriately, 46 white diamonds sit on a moving inner ring that orbits and glances against the two containing outer bands. So simple, so elegant and impossible not to play with!
