Gerald’s girlfriend has beautiful red curly hair. For a long time he had been wanting to give her a ring with a blue sapphire. The time was right, she was turning 40. Together we looked at which jewellery she already has and decided on white gold. All we had to do was find the design.

We shared many photos: blue sapphire with diamonds, without diamonds, quare shaped, round, oval. Rings with and without frills. He also wanted to see some ideas with emerald, because green… doesn’t green go with red hair? His girlfriend’s sister had the deciding say: yes, green!

From abroad, where she worked, his girlfriend sent a photo of a bracelet she just bought. It was white gold and no frills, we were on the right track. The goldsmith worked very precise, he wanted to have the gold around the stone slightly lower than the band, to make it as elegant as possible. He succeeded!

A 40e birthday is memorable, and in a present like this, an inscription is fitting. Gerald didn’t have to think long: his ringtone. The personalised ringtone her phone plays when he calls. I thought it was beautiful, from a ringtone to an emerald ring, it’s the little things that give daily life its colour.
