Bridal and Fine Jewellery Shopping

David Wein Rings

Dreaming of the perfect fairy tale wedding? A magnificent dress adorned with elaborate embroidery, a long train and white veil floating past as you walk down the aisle. Stunning jewellery, which compliments the whole look. A memorable event, that will last a lifetime, as well as the fine jewellery pieces becoming an heirloom passed on from generation to generation.

Choosing the perfect jewellery for your wedding day is an important decision, and these days there are numerous options and designs to choose from. Most brides choose pearls or diamonds in the fine jewellery range, but as more people are getting adventurous with the colours of their dresses, more precious stones are being used to match the colour scheme of the day.

Fine jewellery bought for any special occasion should inspire excitement and confidence when worn and the new fashion of colourful and bold jewellery can capture any mood or moment you wish.

Jewellery in itself is a very personal issue and has been used over many years for various reasons such as status and wealth. Jewellery for weddings have in many cultures been used as dowries, part of the estate a woman brings to her husband in marriage. Other uses are for symbolism, protection or purely for arts sake and these days a definite fashion statement.

Shopping for the perfect piece of jewellery that captures the look you want can be challenging, the many retail jewellery stores all over the country and now the recent boom of online jewellery stores, which stock anything from designer pieces to fine jewellery to costume jewellery seems a daunting task.

Firstly you need to think of the reason why you want the piece – for investment purposes or a particular occasion. Then look at the colours you like and what the jewellery can be worn with. The traditional diamonds and gold can be worn with practically anything. More ornate pieces are usually worn with more simplistic clothing, while the simple items can be worn with more flamboyant clothing.

Ultimately it comes down to your own style and what you feel comfortable wearing, whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert. The most important thing is you feel fantastic wearing the fine jewellery pieces and it captures your imagination for years to come.

Very first royal charm design idea. Look very Russian.... orthodox. Not sure if that will be popular in UK.

Highly Commended Orange Sapphire Jewellery

The Kayman Award winners for 2007 have been announced and Fameo was honoured in the Highly Commended category for the "Banquet 1930" Art Deco jewellery range - unique fine jewellery pieces, featuring cascading orange sapphire baguettes and diamonds which harks back to a time of grand formal dinners and cocktails at the Ritz.

The judges said: "Retro is definitely a strong look for 2007 and this sophisticated collection does it with verve and plenty of style. This glamorous suite exudes feminine allure and sophistication."



The Art Deco jewellery movement (1920-1930) introduced styles that often focused on bold colours and geometric shapes. Baguette cut gemstones and diamonds became fashionable and is as popular today as ever, but these days it is not as easy to find quality precious stones as it was 70 years ago. Modern Art Deco jewellery still features strong symmetry, streamlined shapes and geometric cuts such as baguette, emerald and triangle, but Fameo added an interesting twist of a cascading free fall effect achieving an extra sparkle and sophistication for jewellery pieces on the move.

The Kayman Award, is a national competition in memory of the UK jewellery manufacturer Gerald Kayman and is held to draw attention to the very best within the UK jewellery industry and to reward firms and individuals that can demonstrate their ability to design and produce to the highest standards. The competition is organised by the British Jewellers Association and sponsored by the Spring Fair Birmingham, with the backing of the British Jeweller, Giftware and Finishing Federation and Jewellery in Britain magazine.
