uncut




When we went into iGorman in Washington DC to create a ring, the pieces by Todd Reed stood out to me instantly. I love that the diamonds are uncut. Diamonds form naturally in either perfect cubes or octohedrons (a diamond-shape that looks like two pyramids out together.). Todd used the uncut natural pyramid shape for my ring, and the band is paladium. I love that it's so architectural. It looks modern but also like an artifact.

Here are some more crazy-amazing rings from Todd Reed:

I imagine some amazing Renaissance-era queen wearing these. Or a Mayan-alien architect.
