Sarah's ruby ring

 

When Sarah, an English teacher at The Abbey School, started thinking about her 40th wedding anniversary, she knew she wanted something truly meaningful and a ruby ring to mark the occasion seemed perfect.

After hearing Mitch speak at an Abbey School Alumni event, Sarah felt inspired to visit us at Petra Jewellery and see if we could help her bring her dream ring to life. She had her heart set on a cluster design but was keen to make it feel a bit more her—something unique.

That’s when she sat down with our designer, Abi, to explore some creative ideas. They played around with a few different designs, and after some thought, Sarah chose a beautiful asymmetrical cluster in rose gold. To really showcase the ring, she decided to go for slightly bigger rubies—and we think it was the perfect choice!

After choosing the rose gold, Sarah decided to make her rubies just a smidge bigger to really showcase the setting. Then it was time to get to work!

Once the design was finalised, our CAD workshop worked its magic, carefully casting the ring and setting those gorgeous rubies.

When the big day came for Sarah to collect her ring, the look on her face said it all. It was a stunning piece, designed just for her, and she couldn’t have been happier!

We were even more thrilled when Sarah and her husband, Peter, joined us at our 45th Sapphire Anniversary celebration, where she proudly showed off her beautiful new ring to Mitch. It felt like the perfect way to bring everything full circle!
