Albion

One generous coloured stone cut as a soft-cornered cushion, held in a slim bezel and often ringed with pavé diamonds.

Glam'Azone pavé ring in yellow gold: two parallel diamond-set bands joined at the centre by an oval diamond in a pavé halo, on a pale grey ground.

Glam'Azone

Two slim lines of gold cross the finger like an Amazon's arrow and spear and meet at an oval diamond held in a pavé halo, the shield.

A doubled band leads to the stone on both rings. On Albion it is the twisted David Yurman cable, split in two to lift a cushion of coloured stone held in a slim bezel and often a halo of pavé. On Glam'Azone the two lines are an Amazon's arrow and spear, crossing the finger to meet an oval diamond in a pavé surround that stands for the shield. The New York double band is texture; the Paris one carries a legend of warrior women.
