Throwback... Wednesday? We couldn't wait for Thursday!
Almost a year ago, we crafted something so unique, we’re still talking about it today — and for good reason! If you've seen this one before, fall in love with it again!
The challenge of this ring? To make the gold look as raw and untouched as possible — like a natural nugget pulled straight from the earth. Using a combination of controlled melting, burrs, and texture wheels, we let the metal tell its own story. The result was a rich, rugged surface that cradles a claw-set sapphire in its centre, blending elegance with raw craftsmanship.
We learned so much from this piece. How gold behaves under flame, how texture can transform perception, and most of all, how inspiration can come from just one bold idea. Nugget rings don’t come along every day — maybe once every 20 years, if that — so we made this one count.
We had so much fun with this project that we wondered, how can we do this more? We fell in love with the natural, textured finish of this ring, and it quickly dawned on us that sand-cast pieces give off a similar look! And that, ladies and gentleman, is how Jewellers Vault came to sand-casting pieces.
This ring will always hold a special place in our hearts at Jewellers Vault. It reminded us that even old gold can be reborn, and even bold risks can shape the future of design.

Bigger, Bolder, Brighter — A Diamond Dream Come True
When a client came to us with a very specific — and very sparkly — request, we knew we had our work cut out for us. Her brief? “I want a big, wide, sparkly ring using as many of my diamonds as possible.”
We’ll admit, we were a little nervous. Designing a wide ring that’s both stunning and comfortable is no small feat. We sketched a few options, gradually pushing the boundaries… and to our surprise, she picked the widest one of the lot! Our nerves doubled, but so did our excitement.
The final design is a visual masterpiece — a seamless blend of brilliance that mimics the look of five stacked rings, all locked together in perfect harmony. No twisting. No turning. Just sparkle. Everywhere.
It's bold. It’s luxurious. And it’s hers. And from what we hear, this showstopper hardly ever leaves her finger.
Sometimes the biggest risks lead to the most dazzling rewards. 💎

From Forgotten to Forever: A Custom Heart Pendant Full of Sentiment
Every now and then, a client walks in with a vision that makes our hearts flutter — and this one was exactly that. She dreamed of a diamond heart pendant, but with a twist: it had to hang off-centre. The vision was clear, bold, and beautifully personal.
What made this project even more special? She brought in a collection of jewellery she no longer wore and asked if we could breathe new life into it. With just a few design refinements, we transformed those forgotten pieces into a one-of-a-kind pendant that was uniquely hers.
The heart-shaped design features diamonds arranged by size rather than colour — a rare and striking choice — and includes sapphires from one of her old rings for a pop of colour and a touch of sentiment. The end result is a stunning blend of past and present, all wrapped up in a pendant she now proudly wears every day.
Jewellery tells a story, and this one is all heart. 💙

A Custom Anniversary Ring That’s Anything but Ordinary
When her husband offered to cover the cost of her anniversary gift—with one condition—she didn’t hesitate. The deal? She would be in charge of every detail, and he would foot the bill. Challenge accepted.
Rather than go another year of some off-the-shelf gift, this client took full advantage of her husbands offer and went for a custom made ring, just for her!
Drawing inspiration from pieces she’d admired online, she envisioned something truly one-of-a-kind: a ring that was equal parts romantic, eclectic, and unapologetically her. With a stash of sentimental old gold tucked away, she brought it in and worked with us to blend the past with something entirely new.
We sourced a medley of pink sapphires—from soft blush to rich fuchsia—sprinkled in a few shimmering diamonds, and let the random placement of bezels tell the story. The result? A ring that celebrates her love of pink, her eye for the unique, and a love story still unfolding.
This isn’t just a ring. It’s a reflection of her style, her heart, and the journey she’s on. Because sometimes, the best gifts are the ones you dream up yourself. 💖

From Hollow to Heirloom — A Bangle Built to Last
Hollow bangles can be beautiful, but they often come with a downside — they just don’t hold up. With thin walls and fragile construction, it doesn’t take much to dent, crush, or warp them beyond repair. Our client knew this all too well.
She had a bangle she loved — the shape, the size, the style — but its hollow form was its biggest flaw. Instead of letting it live a short life, she chose something smarter: a full recreation, but this time, in solid metal.
We took the original design and brought it to life in a way that not only preserved everything she adored, but also gave it the durability it deserved. This client also happened to have a collection of old gold that she never wore - all pieces that hadn't seen the light of day in recent memory. She figured, rather than add to her collection of wearable pieces and leave her unworn pieces in the bottom, maybe it was time to put them to good use! This way, she cleared out just enough space in her jewellery box to fit her brand new bangle!
The result? A solid, weighty, elegant piece that can withstand everyday wear while maintaining its timeless look.
Jewellery should be beautiful — and built to last.
