Unique, rare gemstones set in

our jewellery collection.

We  have always been fascinated by the extensive range of colours and shapes that can be found in natural gemstones. It is this passion that drives the designs of our jewellery pieces, most of which are set with exquisite gemstones collected during our travels over the past twenty years. The Paraiba Tourmaline, a rare gem not known to many people, (featured in the article 'Find a Rare Gem' Capital Magazine 2004), is a perfect example of this.

We never compromise on the quality of the stones we put into our jewellery and all gemstones are guaranteed for quality. We hope you enjoy looking at our jewellery collection as much as we enjoy introducing you to some truly rare and unique gemstones.

The pieces on this page represent a small part of our gemstone jewellery collection. Please feel free to contact us if you would like some more information, or to discuss creating an entirely new and unique piece of jewellery just for you.

the sydney opera house ring

inspired by jorn utzon

We bought this Cabochon Indigolite Tourmaline in Namibia, and the moment we laid eyes on this stone we looked at each other and no words were necessary: it immediately reminded us both of the Sydney Opera House with its curved cut and height. We designed the ring together and Eytan crafted the most beautiful piece - it was absolutely stunning!

Eytan suggested we dedicate it to Jorn Utzon, the Danish architect who designed the masterpiece that the Opera House is - and so we did. We sent Mr. Utzon the Capital Magazine in which we advertised the ring, together with a letter thanking him for the inspiration his design had given us.

We received a handwritten reply (pdf) from his grandson who lives in Sydney. It reads:

27/10/06

Dear Mr. Aharoni,

Thank you so much for your letter and the magazine.
I will send the page, along with your letter to my grandfather so that he can know how you were touched by his work. It must be the greatest gift of any artist to know that your work inspired other artists. We will try to make it to your exhibition in Sydney, to see you and your work "live".

Yours Sincerely
Kirsten Utzon - Popov

Having heard of Jorn Utzon's passing in November 2008, we were very moved and felt that we needed to express our sympathies to his family, telling them of our great admiration and appreciation of Mr. Utzon's work, and the inspiration it provided us. We recieved a second handwritten reply from his son, Jan Utzon.

London V&A Museum Expresses Interest

in the Sydney Opera House Ring

In March 2009 we were approached by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, who requested permission to use the image of the Sydney Opera House Ring in an educational initiative for high school, college and University students of architecture and design. We were greatly honoured to accept the offer to be a part of this educational program which conveys the grandeur of Utzon's iconic Opera House.
