LET IT GLOW
The Floating
Collection
Our signature diamonds appear to float on your chain—each one laser-drilled with a tiny hole and connected using a delicate gold jump ring. The result is a holiday-ready sparkle that isn’t weighed down by bulky metal, letting your diamond catch light from every angle like the most glamorous ornament on the tree.
No prongs to snag your favorite ugly holiday sweaters, no heavy bezels—just pure, radiant stone that dances with you through every winter gathering— all the way into spring.
Precision-drilled by experts and hand-assembled in our New Jersey studio, this is modern, minimalist jewelry built to shine all season long and endure well beyond the holiday season.
