M O N R O E

M O N R O E was designed as a tribute to the elegance and glamour of Old Hollywood jewelry from the 1940s–1960s. Featuring an oval diamond framed by two half moon side stones, the design draws inspiration from the iconic styles popularized by high jewelry houses like Harry Winston and Cartier during the mid-century era.

I’ve always loved how jewelry from this time period focused less on excessive detail and more on balance, proportion, and the way side stones could frame and enhance a center diamond. Half moon diamonds became especially iconic because they create a soft, sculptural transition into the center stone while still feeling clean and architectural.

The softness of the oval diamond paired with the symmetry of the half moons gives the Monroe ring a very timeless, cinematic feel. I wanted the design to feel refined and glamorous in the same way many vintage high jewelry pieces did — elegant, intentional, and designed to remain beautiful for generations rather than follow trends.
