Adakite

Adakite is a volcanic rock, formed when ocean crust sinks beneath a continent and melts. Emily formed this design as a delicately textured three-stone ring, with natural textures from found rocks and a careful alignment of stones. Notus was the Greek god of the south wind, bringer of late-summer storms. And so the 'Notus' palette is set with a natural sapphire from Tanzania in a deep purple, with an accent diamond and blue Sri Lankan sapphire.

The sapphires in this piece naturally formed approximately 150—300 million years ago. Each stone has a unique and unrepeatable colour palette, caused by trace elements surrounding the sapphire crystal as it was formed. As a result, each individual piece is unique, with subtle colour variation in the stones. All of our stones are responsibly sourced with strict human rights and environmental due diligence on trusted, reputable suppliers. They are set by hand in West Cornwall.

The diamonds in this piece naturally formed approximately 1—3.5 billion years ago in the Earth's mantle. They rose to the surface over millions of years to be sourced from South Africa, Botswana, and Namibia, in compliance with the Kimberley Certification Process. All of our stones are responsibly sourced with strict human rights and environmental due diligence on trusted, reputable suppliers. They are set by hand in West Cornwall.
