I have fallen in love with beautiful gemstones. For me, the beauty lies in the variation of them, each one-of-a-kind, miracle of nature, which is even more visible as the carat size gets larger. We are launching a new collection within FoundRae, a Collector’s Series, comprised entirely of one-of-a-kind pieces. For our first Collector’s Series, V MMXXIV (May 2024), we are introducing two new designs: a Reverie Gemstone Pendant and Signet Ring.

The gemstone selection process is like a treasure hunt. For this first Series, I was inspired by the Horizon and searched for gemstones that embodied the colors of the ocean and sky; pale blue aquamarines, deep blue sapphires, and greenish blue tourmaline. After an intense scouring of the marketplace, we winnowed down to our final selection of just a limited number of gemstones that exceeded our expectations. Not only is the gemstone one-of-a-kind, but the setting is too. Each stone has a different depth and the exact dimensions and shape of the elongated rectangle vary. As a result, each stone is scanned and we design the setting to fit exactly for each piece, casting them one at a time.
