"I love the rawness and texture of these wrapped rings that show the layers of gold. They have a relaxed character belying their precious material - each one is unique and has its own personality."

"This pendant captures the slow shifting hues of dramatic skies. Soft rounded metal embraces the hard edges of an emerald cut parti Winza sapphire, in deep violet-light pink tones."

"Made from high grade acrylic, these unique geometric forms gather light at their surface and reflect, refract and reimagine it. Some sides are polished and others are left rough hewn, creating textural variations and adding complexity. Each sculpture can be placed on any of its sides, offering a completely different light refraction each time."

Elegance & simplicity are embodied in the Baroque Pearl stacking rings by Melanie Katsalidis Jewellery.

Amy Renshaw's work is recognised by its uncomplicated, refined form and geometric shape, often with an unexpected asymmetric detail.
