AMOR — DAY 16: New Moon Ring

Today’s new moon felt like the perfect moment for a piece like this. Deep, dark, introspective — a nearly-black rose cut diamond set in a heavily textured bezel with tiny white diamond accents, like stars framing a moon hidden in shadow.

The new moon has always felt like a time to pause and reset for me. A chance to move a little slower and listen to what your body and mind need before everything begins again.

Maybe fittingly, I also started my period today, so this ring was made with especially introspective and nurturing energy. Tiny shoutout to anyone bleeding (literally or metaphorically!) and still trucking along through work, life, emotions, expectations, and everything else. It’s not always easy moving at your body’s pace in a world that wants consistency all the time.

This ring will be available during the AMOR Week 2 Ring Drop on Monday, May 18th at 12PM PST.

AMOR — DAY 15: Nova Diamond Ring

Everything about today’s ring feels indulgent. Halfway through making an entirely different piece, I changed course because I couldn’t stop thinking about this diamond. I basically designed a ring for me — what would the most luxe, powerful, and self-assured version of myself want to wear?

Since I ended up completely falling in love with it, I couldn’t help but pair it with one of my favorite songs (and let the video linger a little longer than usual). Add to all that posting 15 minutes after midnight just because I was having so much fun with it? Pure self-indulgence. 😇

I’ve been saving this 1.70ct teardrop rose cut diamond for something special, and the halfway point of AMOR 2026 felt right. Set in a glossy bezel and mounted on an extra wide, weighty hammered gold band.

Three things!

1. We are officially half-way through AMOR! It has been incredible thus far — thank you all for following along and for being so encouraging, you’re the best. 🥰 If you’re new here — I’m creating, filming, and sharing one new ring, everyday in May.
No days off. Yes, I’m very tired (but having SO much fun).

2. AMOR Week Two — Ring Drop goes live Monday at noon PST! Link in bio if you’re not sure where to find the drops.

3. If you’d like an exclusive price preview of the Week Two rings, I’ll be sending it out in a newsletter Sunday evening after the final ring of the week is posted. If you’re not already on the list you can sign up via the link in my bio. ᵕ̈

Alsoooo, I changed ideas half way through making the Day 15 ring, so I *just* finished filming, but it was SO WORTH IT — I’m obsessed and can’t wait to share it with you all later tonight. Definitely of my favorites so far. See you soon! ✨

AMOR — DAY 14: Fernwater Sapphire

It’s been a while since I posted a ring fitting of an elven princess, so here you go. This one feels like early morning frost on leaves meets waterfall mist. I love that this center stone has some little specks and inclusions inside—it think it adds to the sparkly magic. If you like a stone with character, this one’s for you.

A 1.5ct natural pale green sapphire, flanked with six 2.2mm white brilliant cut diamonds, prong set on a solid 14k band.

This ring will be available for purchase during the AMOR Week 2 Ring Drop Monday, May 18th at 12PM noon PST.

AMOR — DAY 13: Cinnamon Pear Diamond

Earlier today I closed my eyes and had a vision of rich gold, rust orange, and reddish brown tones, almost as if you were watching evening sun shine through vintage colored glass vases. When I got to the studio, I knew exactly what stone I needed to use.

This unique warm toned diamond is one of the last from a parcel I bought years and years back. All of the warm cognac amber hues were so gorgeous and autumnal — it felt special to get to use one of these stones again in today’s piece. Refined and elegant.

A .27ct cinnamon teardrop rose cut diamond, resting on a textured basket and carved chevron band.

Music by the ever-talented and gorgeous ✨

AMOR — DAY 12: Sakura Tourmaline 🌸

Today is my sweet friend Lisa’s birthday! I was inspired to make a ring that felt like her in ring form — she’d be kawaii, DEFINITELY pink, whimsical, and silly (but I couldn’t figure out how to make a ring silly, any ideas??). Plus, she’s half-Japanese — one of the first things we bonded over — so had to give a little nod to our heritage. Lisa and I have spent many a spring under the cherry blossoms in Golden Gate Park, so sakura always remind me of her.

The Day 1 Moon Flower Redux ring was SO popular, I thought I’d try a different take on it. A gorgeous pink tourmaline (didn’t crack it this time ), set in a hand-carved sakura scalloped bezel. This was definitely fun to try—I fell asleep last night trying to figure out the best shape that carve the petals into. The glow on this stone is unreal, and it passes my gemstone test with flying colors (I want to eat it).

Happy birthday ! 🌸💕✨ Love youuuu.

This ring will be available for purchase during the AMOR Week 2 Ring Drop Monday, May 18th at 12PM noon PST.
