My sustainable lab grown diamonds collection with etika jewels

For Gaza, a poignant design of solidarity, the double ring represents togetherness and union. The ring also represents collective support, and the spirit of Hub (meaning love in Arabic) that is shared. Additionally, the ring’s sale proceeds will be going to organizations providing aid in the region.

Lab grown diamonds are as real as diamonds mined from the earth. They have the same chemical, physical, and optical properties as mined diamonds and exhibit the same features and sparkle. Also, lab created diamonds consume significantly less water and energy per carat than their mined counterparts, which makes lab-grown gemstones the most sustainable choice for all your jewellery.

I collaborated with UAE based brand Etika Jewels that was founded in 2022, to design an exclusive capsule collection of rings.  My designs were inspired from important elements in my life, such as; water, love and hope and peace. The rings showcase a shared commitment to reducing environmental impact and embracing solidarity during a challenging period in the region.

Each meticulously crafted ring tells its own story of commitment and beauty;

The Wave is a homage to my love for the ocean, encapsulating the majestic power and serenity of the sea. The Eye is a symbol of vigilance and self-protection, encouraging wearers to remain conscious of their environmental footprint. The Wrap adorned with vibrant red gems is a celebration of the ever-present, transformative nature of love. The Sun and Moon rings represent the enduring, cyclical beauty of the natural world. The Knot stands as a binding promise of personal and environmental integrity. The Trio, a set of and stackable singlets made for everyday wear, symbolizing elegance and flexibility and Crossroads – symbolizes the how the journey of life has many crossroads, that make it beautiful and unique.

 

My favourite, aptly named For Gaza, is a poignant design of solidarity, the double ring represents togetherness and union. The ring also represents collective support, and the spirit of Hub (meaning love in Arabic) that is shared. The red ruby helps highlight our love and additionally the collective loss we all feel. The ring’s sale proceeds will be going to organizations providing aid in the region.
