This sparkly ring design is our new Rainbow & Cloud ring (but the largest diamond represents the "sun") in 14K gold and encrusted with diamonds. This piece is imbued with sunshine and joy. A rainbow and sparkling diamonds are set into bubbly "clouds", an abstract representation of sunshine and joy after the rain. Nicole created this ring with different methods of ancient goldsmithing and fusing and then created a mold so that we can recreate this in different 14K gold colors. It is truly a spirited piece.

Diamonds have long been regarded as the most precious of all of the precious gemstones. For this reason, diamonds often symbolize perfection, purity, and rarity. However, because of the durability of diamond—it is famously capable of cutting glass—diamonds also sometimes symbolize imperviousness and indestructibility. 

The origin and meaning of diamond comes from Ancient Greece where the Greeks would refer to them as "adamas" (invincible). Ancient Greeks would wear diamonds in battle as a symbol of strength, believing that diamonds would make them undefeatable.

Plato talked of the world’s axis as being made of diamond. Pliny the Elder also argued that diamonds possessed preservative and curative properties, warding off disease and driving away malevolent spirits. The word "adamant" comes from an old French word for diamond which means a person is unwavering and committed.

Diamond is also the birth stone for the month of April. (source: interestingliterature.com)

  • Palladium white gold note: We do not use traditional white gold in the studio as it contains nickel (that gives it the whiter/silvery appearance) which is a common metal allergy (California states it is a carcinogen to work with in terms of dust and heating it for the metalsmith). Instead, for white gold we use an alloy that contains palladium instead of white gold. Palladium is in the platinum family, therefore it is priced as such. The color of 14K palladium white gold is a beautiful steely grey color similar to traditional white gold. Likewise, we do not use plating chemicals nor recommend it for white gold (traditionally this is done to give a super bright white appearance, however, it involves some very harsh chemicals as well as a constant upkeep for the client). We hope you love the palladium white gold on its own without the use of plating.

Please note: While every effort is made to photograph the items to be an accurate representation, photography and computer monitors have limitations and differences. These images were taken with a Canon DSLR and macro lens (this shows much more detail than the eye can see). Colors and brightness may vary on different devices. I believe these pieces look so much prettier in person when held in the hand and admired by the eye (I've also been told this many times by Knot & Splice customers). I hope you're delighted when you receive your special piece.
