If you’re looking for something altogether different for your bridal ensemble – then look no further than Karin Andréasson’s Trinkets and Treasures collection. Karin has combined turn of the century lace, crystals, vintage ribbons and feathers to create romantic and whimsical headpieces and jewellery. Each piece is unique and sophisticated, with an old world glamour and attached history. I love the idea of her creations, using little bits of prettiness, collected over time and reinvented into something new and unusual and something absolutely delightful.

Deciding on a wedding band must be one of the hardest decisions we make. It’s something you have to want to wear for a lifetime. Personally, I would always choose to have a ring commissioned and made for me rather than buy one “off the shelf”. There are some outstanding designers around, who will create a bepoke artwork for you to treasure – what could be more wonderful? A wedding ring becomes more precious each year that we are married and we become more and more sentimental about them as time goes by. How many women (or men…?) do you know who are inconsolable should they loose their wedding rings?

I love this ring in Shona Carnegie’s portfolio – an 18ct Gold Spin Ring with 5 diamonds set around the band.
