The Vera Ring sets its four marquise stones sideways, like rungs on a ladder. It’s a small change in direction that gives the whole piece a different rhythm and makes you look twice at an otherwise classic, delicate band.

A slim, polished band of solid 14-karat white gold provides the foundation. Spaced evenly across the top are four marquise-cut Cubic Zirconia stones. Instead of pointing up the finger, they’re set east-west, perpendicular to the band. Each stone is held securely by four small prongs at its points, lifting it just enough to let light pass through the facets from all sides. The rest of the band is smooth and simple.

We make the Vera from solid 14-karat gold, not plated. It's 58.3% pure gold alloyed with metals that give it strength and its bright white colour, which means it won't tarnish or wear away over time. It’s a ring you can live in without worrying about it chipping or turning your finger green. The stones are top-grade Cubic Zirconia, precision-cut into a marquise shape. They’re chosen for their clarity and fire, giving you a brilliant sparkle without the anxiety of wearing much more expensive diamonds.

This ring is for someone who likes delicate bands but wants something more interesting than a standard solitaire or pavé. The east-west setting of the stones is unusual and architectural. It stacks beautifully but has enough character to stand on its own without feeling too loud.
