Boho Wedding with a Seafoam Blue Sapphire Engagement ring

Category: Alternative Engagement, Blue Sapphire Rings, Bridal Inspiration, Sapphire Rings, Unique Engagement Rings, Wedding bands

A timeless classic, the seafoam blue sapphire is the star of our Leaves Prong Sapphire Solitaire engagement ring. Set in a nature-inspired gold leaf design, the yellow gold band beautifully accentuates the light blue gemstone. Part of our Golden Leaves series, this design features the three-quarter carat seafoam sapphire set with four prongs, with three delicate gold leaves sculpted to the side. Raised off the band, this alternative engagement ring is able to be stacked with most of our classic, as well as the unique and non-traditional wedding bands. And if blue gemstones aren’t your cup of tea, you can always opt for another colour, or a clear gemstone as well.

The Dainty Seashore wedding band is a great choice for brides who wish to keep the focus on the engagement ring. Its delicate design makes it wonderfully suited to fit well with most rings. Simple yet elegant, it is part of our Seashore collection and is finished with the signature texture, inspired by the sandy beaches and the ocean. To suit any bride, the seashore band design comes in dainty, extra-fine, or full width at 3mm wide. As with all Anouk Jewelry pieces, you are able to choose between yellow, rose or white gold.

Many couples prefer to match their wedding bands, and we’re happy to offer the grooms our collection of Seashore bands for men. This particular wedding band is 8mm wide, and is a wider variation of a classic 6mm Seashore Mens Wedding Band. Both wedding bands share the same hand-hammered texture and they look great as a couple, wouldn’t you agree?

We’re so happy to be featured on the gorgeous Today’s Bride blog, celebrating all things tropical and Boho! The talented team beautifully showcased our collection pieces and we’re so proud to have been a part of this Boho Tropical wedding style photoshoot!

Celebrating Anouk Jewelry’s 10th Anniversary!

03.12.20
Category: Alternative Engagement, Unique Engagement Rings, Wedding bands

This month Anouk Jewelry turned 10 years young!
We received dozens of heart-warming birthday wishes from our fans and clients, and celebrated this momentous milestone with our first ever Instagram giveaway! Thank you to all our followers, for supporting our art and reaching out with kind birthday wishes!

Allowing our imagination lead the way, we’re inspired daily by the most unique gems, creating alternative bridal, heirloom jewelry, and more.

Every day of the last ten years we’ve felt incredibly fortunate to be able to do something we’re passionate about. We have enjoyed very much meeting hundreds of the loveliest and kindest people, who share our values, and love for the world we all live in.

While our main passion is designing signature pieces and creating heirloom jewelry reusing family gemstones, we also care deeply about Nature, and the preservation of the environment. The world around us is our biggest inspiration, and we honour it with our Golden Leaves collection and our Seashore line, among others. Caring for the environment is of paramount importance to us, and we honour this commitment by using ethically mined gemstones such as raw diamonds, sapphires and lab created stones, and working with casting gold, which is mostly recycled.
And did you know, Anouk Jewelry plants a tree for every piece purchased?

In the past ten years, in addition to designing the Anouk Jewelry line, Anat also published a charming children’s book for the very young.
As well, to help preserve the source of all life on this planet, Anat started a fundraising jewelry project, Okéan Collection. Our goal with this line is to clean up the oceans, through beautiful and wearable jewelry. We invite you to check these out via the links.

We look forward to seeing what the next decade brings!
Hopefully, you are there with us! And if you aren’t already, please join us on Instagram

We, at Anouk Jewelry are feeling especially festive these days and wanted to share with you some of the highlights of 2019.
It’s been a true pleasure collaborating with our wonderful clients, and creating custom pieces that will forever be treasured by the couples and their families.
As well as creating unique engagement rings and wedding bands, we loved re-designing family jewelry.
We helped transform family heirlooms into new rings, breathing fresh life into old pieces.
We are so grateful to our wonderful clients for trusting us with preserving their family story!

In addition to creating alternative engagement rings with diamonds and sapphires, this year we got to use a lot of man-made and eco-friendly gemstones, such as lab-grown diamonds and moissanites. These gorgeous stones come in a variety of colours and are a great choice for environmentally-minded people.

In 2019 we were fortunate to work with very talented photographers, who beautifully captured our jewelry collection.

It’s been a wonderful time of growth for us, and here are some reminders of what we’ve been up to.
Below is a small selection of the works featured in various publications this year. Thank you to the great teams of people who made 2019 our best year yet!
As always, all the designs can be custom-created in yellow, white and rose gold and set with a gemstone of your choice.
So, get in touch to start your own Anouk Jewelry journey!

Featuring an almost two-carat, warm yellow raw diamond slice, surrounded by fifteen white accent diamonds and cast in 14k yellow gold, this ring is a true heirloom treasure!

Diamond Wreath ring is a signature piece from Anouk Jewelry’s Golden Leaves collection. This alternative engagement ring features seven gold leaves on each side, set with small accent diamonds and flanking a beautiful central quarter-carat diamond. We love creating unique engagement jewelry for nature-loving couples, and this is one of the designs that is always appealing to our boho brides.

Vintage-inspired Champagne Diamond Engagement Ring

Category: Bridal Inspiration, Champagne Diamonds, Engagement Rings, Unique Engagement Rings, Wedding bands

The lovely Vineyard Bride blog recently featured one of our most opulent vintage-inspired designs, the unique Champagne Diamond Cluster ring, paired with one of our most beloved Mens wedding bands, the Seashore Band.
Both rings were part of Katie Nicolle’s Fine Art Photography workshop at the incredible Graydon Hall Manor in Toronto. Says the blog, “With styling by Vivian Lyttle Events, the workshop was inspired by European estate homes and all things romantic.

Using a palette of cream, gold, blush and yellow as well as lush textures of lace and velvet, the editorial brought Europe to life in the heart of Toronto. The bride was dressed like royalty in two gowns by Claire Pettibone and adorned with crowns and veils by Noon on the Moon, as well as a gorgeous antique-inspired ring by Anouk Jewelry.”

“With the right team of talented vendors, you don’t need to travel to Italy to have the European inspired wedding of your dreams!”

We couldn’t agree more!
Our vintage-inspired luxurious Diamond Cluster ring is set with seventeen champagne diamonds, and looks stunning in a lavish wedding setting!
As ever, all Anouk Jewelry engagement and wedding rings are custom-sculpted, and cast in 14k gold. Most engagement rings can be set with alternative gemstones, reflecting the bride’s individual preferences.
Our Mens wedding bands designs vary in width and texture to suit your personal tastes and life style.

A Perfectly Romantic Wedding with Anouk’s Peach Sapphire ring

11.05.18
Category: Bridal Inspiration, Engagement Rings, Sapphire Rings, Unique Engagement Rings, Wedding bands

It’s not every day we are lucky enough to design an engagement ring and a set of wedding bands for our friends. A few months ago, Anouk Jewelry had the pleasure of creating a gorgeous Peach Sapphire Vintage Rosetta ring with a matching Spring Leaves band and the Organic Mens band in rose gold for a very special couple.

Deanne MacRae is one of our favourite wedding photographers and we were honoured to create the rose gold set of rings for her and her groom’s special day.

Often couples choose to coordinate their wedding bands. While Anouk Jewelry offers several matching wedding band sets, such as the Fine Sand set, the Moonlight set or the Timeless set, sometimes simply coordinating the band colour does the trick!

Our Mens wedding bands are available in a variety of widths to compliment larger, or more slender hands. One of our best loved bands, the Organic Mens band comes in yellow, rose or white gold. A comfort fit will ensure the band feels just right, even if you’ve never worn a band before. And a personal engraving on the inside of the band is an especially touching way to communicate with your partner!

One of our most beloved alternative engagement rings, the Vintage Rosetta is as versatile as the brides’ personalities. Available in yellow, rose or white gold, it features a central stone of your choosing – most often a diamond, a sapphire or a moissanite, surrounded by a halo of gemstones. A perfectly classic design with a touch of modern sensibility, it is a true masterpiece and we are thrilled to recreate it on a regular basis.

Anouk Jewelry’s Spring Leaves band perfectly compliments an engagement ring with a larger stone, embracing it from below. This delicate golden leaf design features a small diamond, adding a sparkle to the hand.

Our design process starts with Anat meeting the couple to discuss their ideas for the rings. A meeting in person is a great opportunity to share our design philosophy, and learn about the couple’s taste and preferences. Some people have a clear vision of what they’re after, and some appreciate a gentle guidance selecting a ring to reflect their love.

We’d love to hear from you and look forward to designing the perfect ring set for your special day!

Raw Diamond Engagement Ring

Category: Bridal Inspiration, Raw Diamond Rings, Unique Engagement Rings, Wedding bands

Our friends from Bridal Hair Collective highlighted a special bridal style shoot, featuring one of our more unique designs, the Raw Rosecut Pear Diamond Halo ring. We are thrilled with this romantic setting for our nature-inspired jewelry!

Staged in the Victorian Great Hall in Toronto, with its floor to ceiling bay windows and crisp white walls, the room was a limitless backdrop for this styled shoot. The model’s flowing hair and dress recall the fashion of the Romantic Era, with our rings the perfect accessories to evoke the timeless elegance of the eighteen hundreds.

The Rosecut Pear Diamond Halo features a one of a kind dark multicoloured diamond and can be worn either as an alternative engagement ring, a right hand piece, or a bohemian style signature ring. Inspired by nature’s geological splendour and the craftsmanship of Classical times, this raw diamond piece looks like a found treasure that connects the wearer not only to the earth’s textures and colours, but to the opulent ancient times as well.

Anouk Jewelry has always been fascinated with raw diamonds. These un-faceted, irregularly-shaped and purely-coloured stones highlight the unaffected beauty and inherent perfection of the diamond in its natural state. One of our favourite characteristics of raw diamonds is their colour diversity. Once set in a bespoke design, it allows the wearer to stand out of the crowd, making a statement with her individual sense of style.

Co-starring in the feature is Anouk Jewelry’s Golden Wreath Band, a beautiful example of our Golden Leaves collection. This elegant gold band design was created for nature loving and unconventional brides, who wish their style to reflect their passion for the outdoors and the role the natural world plays in their lives. As with most our designs, this band is available in yellow, rose or white gold.

Golden Leafs Wedding Ring in an Indian Wedding Style Inspiration

Category: Bridal Inspiration, Photo-Shoots, Wedding bands

Anouk Jewelry is forever in awe of the natural world around us, and our Golden Leaves non-traditional wedding ring is one example of our eternal inspiration. It features a double gold wreath of leafs and diamonds, and is a perfect fit for nature-loving couples, looking for alternative wedding bands.

This original design is influenced by nature, with the hand-sculpted delicate leaves gently enveloping the finger. Small accent diamonds are set among the gold leaves to add a bit of sparkling glamour to this bohemian wedding band. As with most our jewelry, this ring is available in 14k yellow, rose or white gold, set with a variety of accent gemstones. Please browse our Golden Leaves collection for more unconventional ring designs.

The unique style of our nature-inspired 14k gold wreath band was celebrated recently on The Wedding Co. We love its call of encouragement: Take a creative chance.

“Loving this bright style shoot created by an equally vibrant group of Toronto wedding professionals, for the couple looking for creative inspiration and who are willing to take a chance and have some fun! Planner and stylist Sidra Ahmad from Ruby Refined Events describes the inspiration for this colourful shoot. “Toronto is home to a thriving arts and culture scene. We wanted to create a styled shoot for the modern Toronto couple who loves cinema and who live and play in neighbourhoods like Parkdale, The Junction, and Roncesvalles. Our shoot was inspired by Wes Anderson’s “The Darjeeling Limited”, set on a train traveling through India. The new Drake Commissary was the perfect setting for our shoot with its mix of bright colours, contemporary style, and artistic exhibits. … We hope this shoot inspires Toronto couples from all cultures to take creative chances when planning their wedding day.”

Late Summer Vibrant Outdoor Wedding Style

Category: Bridal Inspiration, Engagement Rings, Photo-Shoots, Raw Diamond Rings, Unique Engagement Rings, Wedding bands

Recently Anouk Jewelry teamed up with the talented Tamara Lockwood, taking part in an elegant styled outdoor photoshoot. The beautiful results of this inspired collaboration were featured in Wedluxe last month. Celebrating the last sunny days of late summer, we simply can’t get enough of the vibrant colours of this lovely wedding inspiration.

The bright colours of the tablescape flowers complement nicely the bride’s warm-tone yellow gold rings. Three of Anouk’s signature rings are playfully stacked together. As most our designs are stackable, we encourage the brides to experiment with different styles and combinations, discovering that original look that’s uniquely their own.

The star of the show is our classic Rustic Canadian Diamond Cushion Halo engagement ring with an alternative twist of Seashore texture. It boasts a rosecut diamond mined locally in Canada, and a halo of accent diamonds, artistically set in 14k hammered yellow gold.

The bride is pairing the engagement ring with a nature inspired Morning Dew Band – a perfect choice if you’re looking for a little bit more sparkle to add to the set! The band features nine accent diamonds, and is available in rose, yellow and white gold.

And finishing the look is a delicate gold piece from our Golden Leaves collection. Leafs Twig band is a favourite with nature inspired boho brides looking for organic, non-traditional rings to complete their style.

All our designs are fully customizable to make them truly one of a kind. The rings may be set with a variety of gemstones (may we suggest green sapphires?) and are available in yellow, white and rose gold, as well as platinum.
