Jewellery Care Guide

Sterling Silver: Gently polish with a soft jewellery cloth to maintain shine. Silver Care Guide →

Solid Gold (9ct, 14ct, 18ct): Solid gold will not tarnish or peel, but it can gather oils and dust. Soak in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush to restore its brilliance.

18ct Gold Plate: Avoid water, perfumes, and lotions to preserve the gold layer. Gold Plate Care Guide →

Bronze: Over time, bronze develops a unique vintage patina. Polish to restore brightness or leave to age naturally. Bronze Care Guide →

Gemstones: Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners.

Style & Inspiration

The Laurel Leaf Band draws from the ancient Greek tradition of the laurel crown — worn to honour achievement, victory, and new beginnings. It's a ring for moments that matter: a wedding, a personal milestone, a quiet act of self-recognition.

Each band is built by hand in wax: Sally first textures the base band, then individually applies overlapping laurel leaves, building up the surface layer by layer. Lost-wax casting captures every gesture — the leaves wrap the band with a dimensional, architectural quality that no flat-stamped or machine-made ring can replicate.

The result sits somewhere between jewellery and sculpture. Substantial enough to feel significant, refined enough for daily wear.
