Crash.club by CKC unveilsĀ  ring crafted entirely from a single LGD, eliminating any metal setting

Published

on

 crash.club  by C Krishniah Chetty (CKC) Group has successfully completed a challenging three-year research and development project, culminating in the creation of a ring crafted entirely from a single lab-grown diamond, completely eliminating the need for any metal setting. This breakthrough was initially sparked by a client’s query about designing a ring without gold, a challenge the team readily accepted. The result is a remarkable 7.93-carat faceted diamond band formed exclusively from the stone itself.

This achievement required the CKC team to redefine their approach, moving from conventional gem-cutting to viewing the diamond as a precision-engineered crystal. According to Executive Director Chaitanya V Cotha, the project was split into phases: a year of focused research, a second year of intensive experimentation, and a final year dedicated to microscopic refinement. They utilized a single-crystal CVD-grown diamond, carefully mapping its atomic orientation and modeling every curve to ensure even pressure distribution and prevent cleavage planes from intersecting stress points.

Ultimately, the successful creation of this metal-free ring stands as a powerful testament to CKC’s commitment to innovation. It demonstrates that through meticulous engineering and a willingness to pursue improbable ideas, they can achieve a structure where the diamond’s inherent beauty and strength naturally coexist without compromise.

Bvlgari Revives Its Iconic Gold & Steel Legacy With Bold New Jewellery Creations

The Roman Maison Reimagines Its Pioneering Fusion Of Gold and Stainless Steel Across B.Zero1, Tubogas and Serpenti Collections, Blending Heritage With Contemporary Innovation.

Published

Bvlgari has introduced its new Gold & Steel Collection, marking the return of one of the Roman maison’s most distinctive design signatures—the bold combination of precious gold and stainless steel. Rooted in the brand’s pioneering creative vision of the 1970s, the latest collection brings fresh interpretations to some of Bvlgari’s most iconic creations while celebrating its enduring legacy of innovation and craftsmanship.

The new collection presents a contemporary dialogue between heritage and modern design, spanning the sculptural elegance of B.zero1, the fluid artistry of Bvlgari Tubogas, and the striking Serpenti Tubogas Studs Capsule watch collection. Together, these creations reaffirm the maison’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of jewellery design while remaining deeply connected to its Roman roots.

At the heart of the launch are two new B.zero1 rings, available in two-band and four-band versions, designed to offer enhanced lightness, comfort and versatility for everyday wear. The collection also introduces a refined Bvlgari Tubogas jewellery set, complemented by high jewellery creations that showcase the maison’s signature craftsmanship and bold aesthetic.

For Bvlgari, the Gold & Steel concept is far more than an innovative combination of materials. It represents a distinctive creative philosophy that reflects the maison’s determination to define its own design language while continually expanding its artistic vocabulary through experimentation and technical excellence.

The collection also pays tribute to a defining moment in Bvlgari’s history. During the 1970s, the maison broke with convention by introducing stainless steel into the world of fine jewellery—a material traditionally associated with strength and durability but considered exceptionally challenging to shape using jewellery-making techniques. By pairing the industrial character of steel with the timeless nobility of gold, Bvlgari created an unexpected union of contrasting materials that redefined luxury jewellery and established a design language uniquely its own.

Long celebrated for its experimental spirit, distinctive aesthetics and ingenious craftsmanship, Bvlgari continues to evolve its most iconic collections through the Gold & Steel Collection, demonstrating how innovation and heritage can coexist to create timeless jewellery with a bold contemporary identity
