Gemstones

A Spectrum of Colour

Sapphires, emeralds, rubies and rare coloured stones, set in 14-carat and 18-carat gold.

The Collection

Nothing Captures the Caribbean Like Colour

Diamonds may be forever, but colour is where personality lives. Our gemstone collection gathers sapphires in every hue, vivid emeralds, deep rubies and a range of fine semi-precious stones, each chosen for the intensity and life of its colour.

Every gemstone is set to the same exacting standard as our diamonds, in 14-carat and 18-carat gold, whether as a statement cocktail ring, a coloured engagement ring, or a piece designed entirely around a stone you fall in love with.

Coloured gemstone engagement rings and one-of-a-kind statement pieces are available both from the collection and through bespoke commission.

Questions

Good to Know

Are coloured gemstones a good choice for an engagement ring?
Yes, coloured gemstone engagement rings are increasingly popular for their individuality. Sapphires in particular are an excellent everyday choice: at 9 on the Mohs hardness scale they are second only to diamond, making them durable enough for daily wear. Emeralds and softer stones are best reserved for pieces worn less frequently.
How do I know a gemstone's colour is natural?
Most fine gemstones receive standard, stable treatments (such as heat) that are disclosed as a matter of course. For significant stones we can provide independent laboratory reports confirming the stone's identity and any treatment, so you know exactly what you are buying.
Which gemstones are durable enough for everyday wear?
Sapphires and rubies (both corundum, hardness 9) are the most durable coloured gemstones for daily wear. Emeralds and softer stones such as tanzanite and opal are more delicate and are best set in earrings, pendants or occasion rings rather than everyday rings.
Can you create a bespoke gemstone ring?
Absolutely. Bespoke is one of our specialities. We can source a particular gemstone to your colour, size and budget, then design the setting around it in 14-carat or 18-carat gold, from a single-stone cocktail ring to a gemstone-and-diamond design entirely your own.
What is a padparadscha sapphire?
Padparadscha is a rare and highly prized sapphire in a delicate blend of pink and orange, named after the lotus flower. Genuine padparadscha sapphires are among the most collectible coloured gemstones in the world.
Are gemstones tax-free in the Cayman Islands?
Yes. As with diamonds, the Cayman Islands charges no import duty and no sales tax on coloured gemstone jewellery, so every piece is offered at its full pre-tax value.
