My pick of the week comes from Manya & Roumen, a husband and wife duo with some amazing jewelry designs.  Love this cute owl and cat team handing out on this ring from their “Stories Collection.”  This ring is done in 18k yellow gold with tsavorite garnets and white sapphires for eyes, and a pink tourmaline.  Funny to realize that their jewelry designing talent sprang from a promise that Manya made to Roumen stating that she would make their wedding rings.  Their collaboration has created jewels with a whimsical feel, filled with nature-inspired subjects.  They put it best by saying, “Each piece tells a story, but each wearer interprets the story differently.”
