Atomium Ring 3 – Spinel, Sapphires, and Diamond by Independent Jeweller Iain Sainsbury of Iain Sainsbury Designs

Explore the artistry of the Atomium Ring 3, a stunning multi-stone creation by Iain Sainsbury, an independent jeweller from South Cambridgeshire. Part of the unique ATOMIUM collection, this one-of-a-kind ring is inspired by the Atomium in Belgium and showcases a mix of vibrant stones in a beautiful, structured design.

Key Features:

  • Material. Crafted from 9ct SMO (Single Mine Origin) gold, sandcast using sand from Porthcurno Beach in Cornwall, making each piece distinct.
  • Gemstones. Features a captivating selection of stones, including a large blue-purple spinel, a central salt-and-pepper diamond, and three Australian parti sapphires, each bringing unique colour and depth.
  • Design. The ring’s fine tube settings and support structure reflect the architectural inspiration from the Atomium, creating a distinctive and modern silhouette.
  • Size. Available in size M, with the option for a slight size increase if needed.

Each ring in the ATOMIUM collection is sandcast in Porthcurno Beach sand, ensuring every piece is entirely unique as the mould can only be used once. After casting, the ring is meticulously cleaned, polished, and set by hand.

Founder

Iain Sainsbury

Creating jewellery is my third career. During my PhD research I was commissioned into the Army Reserve and joined communications side of the Army, eventually commanding a Squadron before retiring in 2010.

Concurrently and after finishing my PhD in cell biology, I spent over 20 years in the global pharmaceutical industry. After burnout curtailed my career in 2018, I had a real desire to do something that had significantly less impact on the environment and more focus on creating something long-lasting.

My journey began by restoring vintage razors before moving into making jewellery with upcycled copper and wood. By 2020 I had taught myself to create more ambitious pieces. Since then, I have completed both the Fine and Advanced Jewellery Diplomas from the Jewellers Academy and have exhibited at Goldsmiths North. I live and work from my studio in rural South Cambridgeshire with my family and our two otterhounds, Tara and Willow

The jewellery industry needs to do more to reduce its carbon footprint. That’s why we offset 120x more carbon than we produce, plant a tree for every purchase, and promote jewellers that are leading by example.
