Guide Price - This item is a bespoke design.
This exceptional tartan ring by Christine Sadler has found its permanent home, and its original 1-of-1 design vault is locked. However, its creative legacy lives on as an ancestral blueprint in our archive. We invite you to commission us to use this exclusive signature framework to handcraft a completely unique descendant design customized to reflect your own personal family lineage, choice of precious metals, or milestone celebration.
The Inspiration: The Fire of Bute
The creative spark for this contemporary engagement rings collection was the Isle of Bute. Historically, the name of the island may stem from an ancient Irish word meaning 'fire'—the perfect poetic description for the unparalleled internal light of a fine scottish diamond.
Architecturally, the setting was sculpted so that the central stone resembles a rugged rock rising proudly out of a wild Scottish sea. The original custom layout lifts a 0.74ct GIA-certified, G-colour, VS1 princess-cut diamond high above a striking, geometric checkered diamond ring profile. This distinctive Argyll pattern holds ten princess-cut watery blue diamonds set in 18ct white gold, creating a total diamond weight of 1.24ct.
Commission Your Own Clan Heirloom
This foundational design can be completely reimagined to create an entirely unique aesthetic statement. This iconic isle of bute jewellery blueprint can be masterfully handcrafted on request with classic white diamonds framing the shoulders, or set with your choice of vibrant sapphires, rubies, or birthstones.
Many collectors choose to evolve this setting into a deeply personal piece of Sadler tartan history—selecting specific gemstone color paths that beautifully mirror their historical family clan tartans or wedding day colors.
