Katie is a design where everything is in balance - the eagle claws on the centre stone and the clever setting of the diamonds on the shoulders leading onto the shank that is elegant and timeless. Katie is a ring that lets the natural brilliance of the stones triumph - be they sapphires, aquamarines, spinels or tourmalines - and makes you marvel at the creativity and wonder of nature.
Traditionally, spinel have been important stones for British and royal regalia, a hard lustrous gemstone that forms in a breadth of shades. While ferrous iron minerals within will impart bright, striking blue hues, chromium will imbue dazzling pinks and reds. They are known to possess optical effects, both four and six rayed stars sometimes occurring within the gemstone.
The Black Prince's Ruby in the Imperial State Crown is in fact red spinel.
All Cassandra Goad Jewellery is designed and made in our workshops in London.
Ever in search of the unusual and rare, Cassandra travels the world to source beautiful gemstones, either in the rough or cut form.
The craftsman works as an artist recreating the design in metal. The jewel is then mounted, assayed, polished and set.
