In the market for an alternative engagement ring? Got you covered!

Dec 14, 2017

When it comes to her wedding day, every bride has to find her own style.

Adhering to certain traditions may not sit well with one while following conventional customs may be the only route of choice for another, and these inclinations kick in long before the venue is booked and the dress is chosen.

For most of us, our jewellery has a story.

Whether it’s a piece of jewellery you bought to style-up a tired ensemble or a delicate chain gifted to us in our teenage years, it’s rare you don’t remember how and why you came to own a particular piece.

Tapping into the sentimental value we place on jewellery and the desire to know its back story, Dublin-based Designyard set about curating the finest contemporary jewellery from Ireland and around the world.

Having thrown opens its doors more than 20 years ago, Designyard has two branches in the capital, and acts as a platform for the work of more than 60 designers and makers from Ireland and around the world.

And we are officially obsessed.
