The Flora Themed Aquamarine and Tsavorite Engagement Ring. James came to see me looking for something very avant-garde for his lady love.   He thought hard about the design and didn't' want a straight band either, enter the chevron shaped band. He wanted to incorporate blue and green as well as a butterfly theme.  James knew his lady wasn't really all that into diamonds, like so many millennial couples these days, so we worked with his parameters and came up with this absolute stunner of a design. We put bright green rare tsavorite garnets and diamonds in channels, along the chevron shaped...
