Thanks to a hint from a good friend of mine (check out her blog
here), I was introduced to this magnificent line of rough cut diamonds....
Straight from the horse's mouth, here is a moving quote from the Ruff & Cut website....
Inspired by the timeless and intrinsic beauty of the rough diamond, the Ruff&Cut Collection makes social responsibility at once effortless and luxurious.
Each diamond, conflict-free and as yet untampered with by human hands, exhibits a vital beauty that is undeniable. The marriage of this beauty with recycled metals in organic shapes and distinctive silhouettes articulates and honors the singular splendor of the land and the peoples who bring these precious things into the world.
Every piece of Ruff&Cut jewelry is an heirloom-in-waiting.
All in all, I have to say I am totally infatuated with the principle behind this jewelry, the 'one of a kind' quality and ingenious design behind this work....now if only it was in the budget....
With the holidays fast approaching us, a girl needs to be properly accessorized for all the parties she makes rounds to now doesn't she? I fall into the school that says you cannot go wrong with a knock out cocktail ring. Here are a few of my favorites...large and in charge of course....enjoy!
