Bridal

 

 

Bell and Bird jewelry draws inspiration from the antiques we handle. We use traditional craftsmanship to create modern designs that reference earlier periods. The goal of our collection is to produce treasured jewels recognized for their intrinsic value, appreciated for our careful selection of materials, and respected for their craftsmanship.

 

 

Diamond and fine gemstone rings from our ready made collection.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A few key elements separate our work from more commonly manufactured jewelry. Our gold alloys are blended in house, lending a unique coloring and composition unlike the commercial gold alloys made today. Our stones are carefully sourced and selected for their singularity, quality, and their romantic undertones. Using these materials, our team of skilled specialists are able to produce one of a kind pieces with the same characteristics and quality of pieces made a century ago.

 

 

When required, we are able to source specialty tooling, craftsmen and materials throughout Euroupe and the United States. Each piece of jewelry is made one at a time. We never use computer design or waxes to repeat a design. This is a style of manufacturing that has been all but abandoned in favor of mass production techniques, allowing for higher volume but lower quality. Our hope is to assist you in acquiring a ring that will be treasured and passed down for generations to come.

 

 

 

 

 

ANTIQUE AND OLD CUT DIAMONDS

 

 

 

"Old stones and old cuts have a much softer sparkle than a modern stone, and that’s why we’ve always been drawn to them, and that’s why people come to us for them. Old stones were cut more for dispersion, and that’s why they give that softer sparkle, because you’re seeing spectral colors; you’re not getting a white interface. They’re a softer sort of sparkle. Not less, just different." - Cyrus Shennum

From Inspiration to Design
 


Touches of History

 

A collection with strong suggestions from the antiques from which they are inspired, these rings feature setting styles and construction techniques from the nineteenth century and earlier. Silver topped gold and cut down settings are updated with modern construction techniques and design choices for an interesting blend of old and new.


Modern Classics

Our effort to reproduce the quality of rings made in the first part of the 20th century while instilling modern touches, results in a collection of instant classics. These designs will be as desirable in 50 years as they were 50 years ago.


Geometry

Our imagination of art deco made modern. A group of rings inspired the sleek geometry of the Art Deco movement. The look is updated with black enamel, onyx and our blend of gold. We emphasize clean lines using square step-cut and baguette diamonds.


Bold Gold

 

The name says it all. Gold forfed eighteen and twenty-two karat gold has a eigt and feel that becomes a part of you. Dense and rick in color, these gold rings only get better with wear. Enjou these for the rest of your life or choose one with a diamond to enjoy for the rest of your life together.
