1.2ct teal Sapphire from Australia
This is a lovely teal sapphire, its just over 6mm in diameter, so big enough to really show off its colour and sparkle.
It was described to me as peacock teal, and that has certainly influenced a few of my concepts below.
I had an Aha! moment when I remembered I had a small bunch of smaller teal sapphires in the safe. So it has been great to sprinkle some of these into my design concepts too.
I’ve loved seeing how different the same stones can feel from one render to the next. In the peacock designs, the larger sapphire naturally became the eye of the feather. In the necklaces, I had fun moving the smaller stones around, trying them in a neat line and then spreading them out like raindrops. Even a little more space between the stones changed the feel of the whole piece.
