The Journey to ‘The One’
From the classic sparkle of a Diamond to the vibrant allure of coloured gemstones, each ring tells a unique story. Let’s explore the key elements to surprise her a ring she can’t wait to show off:


Unearthing the
Beauty of Diamonds
Understanding the 5 Cs - Cut, Colour, Clarity, Carat weight, and Confidence - empowers you to choose a Diamond that aligns with your desires and budget. The Cut, often considered the most important of the 5 Cs, determines how light dances within the Diamond, unleashing its brilliance and fire. Colour refers to the natural tint present in most diamonds, ranging from colourless to subtle shades of yellow. Clarity speaks to the diamond’s natural inclusions; unique characteristics that add to its individuality to tell your one-of-a-kind love story. Carat weight measures the diamond’s size, and the 5th C at Sterns is Confidence – it assures you of the Diamond’s ethical sourcing and journey.

Gems That Speak to Your Heart
Beyond the timeless allure of Diamonds, a world of colourful gemstones awaits. Each gem carries its unique symbolism and captivating beauty.- Morganite, with its soft pink hue, whispers love and compassion.
- Tanzanite, discovered in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, evokes a sense of wonder, serenity and
uniqueness. Switching between rich blue and purple hues, it captures the ever-changing nature of your love. - Garnet, a vibrant deep-red gem, signifies deep devotion, passion and vitality.
- Aquamarine’s calming blue hue captures a steadfast connection and the quiet moments shared.
- Ruby with its fiery intensity exudes a passionate, fiery romance.
Let your partner’s birthstone or favourite colour guide your choice.


SETTING AND METAL
Framing your Love
Now that you’ve chosen the perfect gemstone, the setting and metal choice play a crucial role in showcasing it. A classic solitaire setting exudes timeless elegance, while a halo setting adds a touch of vintage glamour. Platinum offers enduring beauty and durability, perfect for a love that’s weathered all storms, while yellow Gold’s brilliant shine evokes warmth and tradition. Rose Gold adds a very personal, romantic touch, while white Gold provides a modern alternative. Finally, Silver is a sleek, minimalist choice if you want something simple yet refined.
