Part of our signature Torrington Bay Collection, the Droplet ring is inspired by the moment a single drop of water hangs suspended before meeting the sea - a pause that gives way to gentle ripples. Using recycled Nova Scotian gold and forged in-house, our goldsmiths and designers collaborated to create this one-of-a-kind 18k yellow and white gold ring; a love letter to the Atlantic.
The east-west set oval cabochon moonstone embodies the mesmerizing dance of waves bouncing off each other, while the flowing gold form reflects the soft movement of water as it disperses. As alive as the sea it reflects - the larger-than-life moonstone is a striking reminder of the poetic salt water it represents. A piece that captures the beauty of motion, reflection, and return.

Unconventional materials such as plastic and wood became the new medium of fabricating jewellery. Further, prioritizing self-expression over traditional styles and materials became increasingly popular. Jewellery of the Contemporary Era was labelled as “wearable art”.
As we headed into the 1980s, jewellery styles became even more extravagant, with women donning oversized hoop earrings and chunky necklaces. As it became more common to see women in the workplace, the demand for purchasing "work wear" jewellery increased as well.
Costume jewellery truly began to take center stage during the 80s. With maximalism in full force, plastic jewellery was bright, eye-catching, and a cost-effective way to express individuality.
Contemporary jewellery is something that will always be in style, because its something that is “made in current time”.
