British designer Stephen Webster has collaborated with Colombian mining company Muzo Emerald Colombia to create a captivating jewelry series called “Thorn Embrace.” This collection ingeniously incorporates the unique “thorn” element into emerald jewelry designs, resulting in pieces that exude modernity and vitality.
The series showcases three-dimensional double-sided setting techniques to accentuate the sharp points of thorn branches, with emerald center stones encircled by these intricate “thorns.” Webster emphasizes the beauty of asymmetry and conflict in each piece, infusing the entire collection with a sense of tension and dynamism.

This standout piece is the collection’s pièce de résistance. The ring’s band is designed with four intertwining thorn branches, centering a pear-shaped emerald. The cut of the main stone perfectly complements the sharp thorns, creating a style that is both natural and edgy.
The main stone is a pear-shaped cut emerald, accented with round-cut diamonds.
