Pink Diamond

Gordon Herford

Queensland jeweller Gordon Herford has won the Harper’s BAZAAR Diamond Guild Australia 2007. Gordon Herford created a stunning yellow and white gold ring featuring pink and white diamonds. Designing for his jewellery house, Gordon Herford Master Jeweller in Noosa, Mr Herford was inspired by floral lace for his piece, Fleur de Luminiere (or Flower of Light).

“Two bands were incorporated to create one ring, one being an 18-carat white gold concave inner band set with a bed of 220 white diamonds and the outer band was hand-carved creating a floral design which was in 22-carat yellow gold and set with varying sizes of pink Argyle diamonds in the centre of each flower,” said Mr Herford.

Fleur de Lumiere

inspired by floral lace, Fleur de Lumiere features two bands that were incorporated to create one ring. One being an 18ct white gold concave inner band set with a bed of 220 white diamonds and the outer band was hand-carved creating a floral design which was in 22ct yellow gold and set with varying sizes of pink Argyle diamonds in the centre of each flower. The use of yellow gold highlights the pink and white diamonds and the 23mm width was designed to make a bold yet feminine statement. Gordon is now creating an exclusive range of similar designs based on this piece.
