When the Twig Ring Grew Leaves
Some jewelry designs don't need to be completely reinvented. Sometimes, they simply need room to grow.
The original Rough Diamond Twig Ring was created from my signature Twig Collection—a hand-sculpted design built around the natural movement of intertwined branches and a rough diamond.
Now, that design has evolved.
I took the original Twig Ring and added three of my hand-sculpted leaves, creating a new Leaf & Twig Rough Diamond Ring while keeping the character of the original design.
This new ring is one of a kind, hand sculpted by me in wax and created in 925 sterling silver with a medium oxidized finish.
At the center is a 1.85–2.00 carat rough diamond, cast in place as part of the design.
The leaves are not separate decorative pieces added afterward. They are part of the sculpted design itself, flowing together with the branches and creating the organic movement that is at the heart of my Leaf & Twig Collection.

A Rough Diamond at the Center
I love rough diamonds because they already have their own personality.
Rather than cutting away everything that makes the crystal unique, I design around it.
The rough diamond in this ring is cast in place, becoming part of the structure of the ring itself.
The result is a very substantial, durable design—while still retaining the natural character of a rough diamond.
