Almost everything in this range relies on rows of small stones; this bracelet/bangle does the opposite and lets the metal speak. A smooth polished band swells gently towards the front of the wrist and holds a single round stone in a cool pale blue, and that is the entire design. It is the quietest piece in the collection and probably the most grown-up, because restraint tends to read as expensive. The anti-tarnish coating does more work here than on a sparkly piece, since a band this bare would show dulling immediately.
The band tapers from a narrow open back to its widest point at the centre, so the metal itself creates the shape rather than relying on decoration. The surface is left completely smooth and highly polished, which lets it reflect whatever is around it and gives the bracelet a liquid look as it curves. At the centre sits one round stone in a soft blue, held in a bezel that rings it completely and sits almost flush with the band, keeping the profile low and the stone protected. Small beaded gold collars sit either side of the setting, which stops the stone from looking dropped onto a plain band.
Blue is the one colour in this collection that does not appear anywhere else, which makes this piece useful when you want jewellery to pick up something in your outfit rather than disappear into it. It reads beautifully against navy, powder blue, white and ivory. Because the band is smooth and sculptural it does not stack well, so wear it alone and let the taper show.
Daily wear, office, lunches and daytime functions, and for anyone who finds heavily stone-set jewellery too showy. It is also a sensible gift for someone whose taste you know to be understated.
A highly polished surface shows fingerprints and dulling faster than a textured one, so wipe the band with a dry soft cloth every time you take it off. Keep perfume and sanitiser away, and put the bracelet on last, since a film across a bezel-set stone kills its brightness quickly. Never soak it. Store it alone in its pouch, because scratches are far more visible on polished metal than anywhere else.
