๐Ÿ’Žโœจ INTRODUCING โ€œANNABELLAโ€ โ€” Aย NIKKI CREATION โœจ๐Ÿ’Ž

Guysโ€ฆ this is exactly why I love giving beautiful natural diamonds a second life. โค๏ธ

Annabella began with a rather unloved 1.90ct natural diamond, sitting in an ugly old ring that frankly did absolutely nothing for her.

But I could see the potential. ๐Ÿ’Ž

I removed the diamond from her original setting, had her professionally repolished to bring her back to life, and then started completely from scratch.

I created a brand-new platinum shank and classic Tiffany-inspired six-prong setting specifically for this diamond, designed to lift her proudly above the finger and allow light to reach the stone from every possible angle.

Maximum light. Maximum fire. Maximum sparkle. โœจ

And lo and beholdโ€ฆ look what that once-unloved diamond has become! ๐Ÿ˜

This is what a Nikki Creation is all about: taking a beautiful natural diamond that has been forgotten, rescuing it, restoring it and creating an entirely new piece around it, ready to be loved for another lifetime. โค๏ธ

A Flamingo Iconique Creation by Nikki๐Ÿฆฉโœจ

Ohhhh this one is CLASSIC DIAMOND PERFECTION. ๐Ÿ˜

Inspired by that timeless Tiffany Soleste-style design, Iโ€™ve taken a beautiful pre-loved natural emerald-cut diamond, had her repolished, and given her an entirely new lease of life. The platinum shank, halo and accent diamond setting are my own creation โ€” combining a fabulous recycled diamond with a brand-new setting. โค๏ธ

โœจ๐Ÿ’Ž GUYSโ€ฆ LAST-MINUTE CHAOS HERE! ๐Ÿ’Žโœจ

It was the graveyard shift last night getting this little beauty finished and absolutely perfect before I leave! โœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’™

You may remember this spectacular 7ct pear-cut tanzanite on sale from a few weeks agoโ€ฆ and now you can see exactly what happens when one of our creations finally comes to life! โœจ

My lovely client Linda purchased a ring from me last year, and this time we decided to completely reimagine it, creating a new setting for this incredible AAAA Kashmir-blue tanzanite. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’Ž

And THIS is the finished resultโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜

That colour. That pear shape. That presence! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

I am completely in love with how she has turned out โ€” a proper showstopper, and I think the perfect ring for Linda! ๐Ÿ’™โœจ

Thereโ€™s something so special about taking a beautiful piece and transforming it into something completely unique for its owner. ๐Ÿฆฉ๐Ÿ’Ž

Enjoy her, Linda โ€” she is absolutely spectacular! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™

โœจ๐Ÿฅ‚ AFTERNOON TEA WITHย NIKKI โ€“ TAKE TWO! ๐Ÿฅ‚โœจ

Guys, Iโ€™m about to head off to Thailand ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญโœˆ๏ธ but before I go, I managed to squeeze in our second Afternoon Tea with Nikki! ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿฆฉ

This time I headed to the beautiful Rowhill Grange Hotel & Spa in Kent for an afternoon of sunshine, bubbles, gorgeous food and even better company! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿฅ‚๐Ÿฐ

๐Ÿ’– Introducing the lovely Carole! ๐Ÿ’–

Carole has been a Flamingo Gems client since the very early days โ€” and we actually met completely by chance in our local nail bar when she overheard me talking about DIAMONDS! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž Of course we were destined to become friends!

Carole is a long-time jewellery collector with a particular love for Art Deco. Today she was wearing the very first piece she ever bought from me โ€” a stunning Art Deco diamond bracelet โ€” alongside a more recent purchase, her gorgeous emerald and diamond ring. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’Ž

Over the years, Carole has collected around 10 Flamingo Gems pieces, and every few months she seems to find another treasure she simply has to have! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฆฉ

Like so many of my wonderful regular clients, Carole has become a genuine friend, and it was such a pleasure to spend a sunny afternoon together chatting jewellery, life and, naturally, admiring a few sparkles! ๐Ÿฅฐ

I also finally discovered where her love of Art Deco beganโ€ฆ as a little girl, Carole was fascinated by her Nanโ€™s beautiful Art Deco ring. โค๏ธ I absolutely LOVE hearing the stories behind peopleโ€™s passion for jewellery โ€” because so often, it begins with a piece and a person we never forget.

And we can both thoroughly recommend Rowhill Grange for a fabulous afternoon of indulgence and bubbles! ๐Ÿฅ‚๐Ÿ“๐Ÿซ–

Iโ€™m off to Thailand now ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ’Ž, but Afternoon Tea with Nikki will be back in September with another amazing Flamingo Gems customer and another jewellery story to tellโ€ฆ

๐Ÿ‘€ Keep watching to see who joins me next! ๐Ÿฆฉ๐Ÿ’Žโค๏ธ

๐ŸฆฉINTRODUCING AMANDA๐Ÿฆฉ

Welcome to the very first Afternoon Tea with Nikki at the beautiful Cliff Hotel in stunning Gwbert, Cardigan Bay! ๐ŸŒŠโ˜•โœจ

Iโ€™m often asked, โ€œHow do you meet your clients?โ€ โค๏ธ

Well, today Iโ€™m introducing you to the wonderful Amanda, one of my longest-standing and most loyal clients. ๐Ÿฆฉ

Our journey together began a few years ago when Flamingo Gems was just a dream. Back then, I was handmaking and selling silver jewellery from a tiny market stall overlooking the beautiful Cardigan Bay in West Wales๐Ÿฉต Itโ€™s incredible to think how far weโ€™ve come since those early days! I had quit my corporate job, had sold just one Tiffany style ring and had the summer in Wales.

As Flamingo Gems grew into a luxury fine jewellery business specialising in exceptional antique and vintage treasures, Amanda was one of the very first people to believe in me. She has supported my journey ever since, and Iโ€™ll always be grateful for that. ๐Ÿ’Žโœจ

Amanda thought she was simply joining me for a lovely afternoon teaโ€ฆ โ˜•๐Ÿฐ

But I had a very special surprise waiting for her. โค๏ธ

Her son, Zayne, had secretly purchased a breathtaking antique Old European Cut diamond necklace, and I had the honour of presenting it to her during our afternoon together. ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ’Ž

It was such a special moment and exactly what this series is all aboutโ€”celebrating not just extraordinary jewellery, but the wonderful people and friendships that have made Flamingo Gems what it is today. ๐Ÿฆฉ๐Ÿ’•

I hope you enjoy coming along on this journey with us! โœจ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒŠ
