About the Item

Designed by Andrew Grima in 2000 This cocktail ring features a large octagonal-cut peridot (23.15cts) set in white gold surrounded by eight brilliant-cut diamonds (1.9cts). Stirrup-shaped shank. Signed GRIMA, London hallmark for 2000. UK Size: M 1/2 US Size: 6 1/2 About Grima Andrew Grima was one of a handful of British designers who revolutionised jewellery in the early 1960s. Unlike most of his contemporaries, he didn't learn his trade at art school, being entirely self-taught and having never worked at the bench. He considered being a pure designer to be an advantage; his ideas were never confined by technical ability, only by imagination. By the mid 1960s Grima had become the doyen of British jewellery design - the Royal and society jeweller of the day. He is the only jeweller to have been awarded the Duke of Edinburgh Prize for Elegant Design and his service to industry was recognised with The Queen’s Award for Export. He won the De Beers Diamonds International Award (the Oscars of jewellery design) a record 13 times and, in 1969, was commissioned by Omega to create one of the most outrageous and daring watch collections ever made. Today Andrew Grima is recognised as one of the great modernist jewellery designers of the 20th century; perhaps the most influential of the post-war period. His work can be seen in the collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths. Since Andrew’s death in 2007, his wife Jojo and daughter Francesca continue the tradition of creating highly original handmade jewellery. A limited collection of 20 to 30 pieces is created each year as only a handful of goldsmiths, most of whom have been employed by Grima for over 40 years, possess the skills required to make these unique pieces. Jojo and Francesca also accept requests for bespoke designs and offer a large selection of vintage pieces. The Grima collections can be viewed by appointment or at Masterpiece London.
