What is a minimalist jewellery collection? What does it entail? And most of all, how sustainable is it long-term?

When thinking about minimalism, there’s often a temptation to push things to the extremes and make do with little. However, that’s not necessarily the case…

Diamonds are the ultimate, most coveted gemstones. So highly regarded, in fact, that they’re thought to be too precious, too bulky or simply too special to wear everyday. They might end up forgotten and unloved in your jewellery box, waiting for that festive occasion.

But you can have your jewellery and wear it, too, if you simply choose the subtler diamond encrusted options.

Let’s take a look at pieces that you can buy AND wear daily. Forever.

As you may already know, we always recommend jewellery made from real, high quality materials. The reason is simple: you get to wear them for a long time and, their value does not diminish as they age. For us here at McFarlane Fine Jewellery, quality means 18ct gold, because that is the ideal balance between gold purity and strength. Add to that the beauty of natural pearls and you get unbeatable (and super chic) designs!

Diamonds? Too many, yet never enough! Since we love diamonds in all shapes and sizes, we’re always looking for ways to feature them in our collections. And that holds true even with the most delicate of pieces, like our dainty necklaces.

We all know the feeling: you want to look dressed up and put together, but have exactly zero bandwidth to divert towards achieving that. For such days, a pair of gold moonstone drop earrings are the ultimate go-to.

Small and easy to put on, ear cuffs are the most convenient way to extend your styling range if you don’t have multiple piercings. You can always add them to your outfit, no matter the trends or seasons and they’re extra fun to mix and match.

If you love the concept, they’ll be on heavy rotation day in, day out. So they should be durable, not just shiny. In other words, made out of 18ct gold...

There’s nothing we like more than putting a twist on a classic, so it makes sense that our latest designs are an audacious take on a timeless shape: hoop earrings.

For these new renditions, we took the smallest hoops possible (any smaller and they’d be huggies) and inflated their proportions. The result? Chic and chunky gold hoop earrings that can be gleefully worn every day.

Let’s take a closer look at the updates…

To mark the launch of our Spring/Summer campaign, we’re taking a look at the most expressive additions to our collection. The Sun and the Moon are two distinct necklaces that can be worn both individually and in tandem.
