CHAMPAGNE & GATSBY


A tale of love, lust, immense wealth and debauchery: The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald has the perfect mix of ingredients to inspire new Regal Rose designs. There's absolutely no modesty when it comes to jewellery in the 1920's: it's all about being flashy and every once in a while that’s something we can totally get on board with...



If you’re not already drooling of the idea of the most glittery, sparkly cocktail rings you ever did see then feast your eyes on these new beauties. Drooooooling much?


opalite gatsby inspired rings 
 
We opted for a killer combination of Opalite and Cubic Zirconia to create pieces that catch the light and SHINE. Characteristic of the 20’s art deco style; the Gatsby ring sports a fan of Cubic Zirconia surrounding a central Opalite gemstone. The aesthetic for the Champagne design is a little softer: a central Opalite featuring star-like cut Cubic Zirconia.


These rings are ready to accompany you on date night (just make sure bae is wearing a tux & you’re going somewhere with chandeliers).


Want the ultimate look? Team together to pack a party punch. Now all you have to do is find your nearest underground jazz club and you’re ready for a summer of style (and fun!)

In the name of Love


IN THE NAME OF LOVE
 

We wanted to start here by thanking each and every one of you

for taking the time to enter our latest giveaway. The giveaway

was held on the Regalrose Instagram page earlier this month

and received a total of 557 entries!



To enter, we asked:

name this ring

 

 


We we're so amazed to see all the thoughtful, heartfelt

and creative ideas that came rolling in! Of course, it did

make choosing just one winner a little hard.

However, after much deliberation we did... The entry

we selected was a name that artfully combined two

meanings of the word 'love' relating to both the

emotional and physical sense of the word.

 


 

So, congratulations and much much thanks for naming

one of the new additions to the Heritage collection so

creatively; @mandy.rosebud

We think Mandy nailed it, covering all basis linking

dark romance, colour and meaning. Bravo! A well

deserved free ring is on it's way to you soon.

We hope you enjoy!

A CITY ROSE.


 

Picking a location was easy. With the #regalrosestudio located on the outskirts of London, we decided upon one of our favourite areas; Shoreditch. The diverse options of backdrops meant we could have a good search for the perfect place to really set off the colour and styles in the collection.

 

 

It's never straight forward to shoot on an outside location. Apart from walking around as a team of 'bag people'; carrying everything from ladders, cameras, tripods to a whole wardrobe of clothes, stack of make-up and collection of emergency jewellery pliers, there's also the problem of keeping a half dressed model warm who's dressed for the height of summer! Poor girl. Luckily we were kindly given a room at The Hoxton Hotel to get hair and make-up complete before we headed outside. BIG thanks to The Hoxton!

 

 

The face of our new SS17 collection. Angelina Jesson from Premier Model Management had the ideal look we wanted to complement the collection. Fresh faced with a grungy vibe, we went with a sultry smoky eye and thick dark glossy lip. Perfecto.

 

 

We had the amazing Nikki on board for make-up and also her wonderful assistant. A talented duo who's efforts were second to none. Nikki hand painted the delicate tattoo inspired shoulder rose you can see throughout the campaign imagery.

 

 

And so we got to work. Shooting against soft greys and hard surfaces whilst searching for abstract backgrounds of distorted patterns and decaying vintage paint work.

 

 

On hair we had the lovely Charlie Wilkinson. Talented with a great eye for detail, Charlie took Angelina's hair to the next level with a quirky, textured yet subtle feel. 

 

 

And last but not least! Photographer Marc Hayden shot and edited the shoot. Marc's unique style of photography and editing was perfect for the City Rose campaign. And his experience in shooting in the City was a big plus!

 

 

 Styling by twin sisters Rebecca & Louisa who co-founded Regal Rose Jewellery and also design the seasonal collections! (and everything else in-between)

Cleaning & Caring for Sterling Silver Jewellery

Cleaning & Caring for Sterling Silver Jewellery.

If you haven't already, we recommend you read our last blog post; The 'Green Finger Myth'. This helps explain why Sterling Silver rings can make your finger green.

It is important to note that all jewellery made from Sterling Silver will tarnish to some degree. It is not a manufacturing fault. The next thing you will need to know is what to do if your finger (or ring) does turn green. But first, to help avoid the speed at which tarnishing happens, keep reading for some helpful care tips...

How do I avoid my Sterling Silver rings from tarnishing so quickly and often?

1. AVOID WATER.
When we say water, we basically mean any liquid. These include chemicals like bleach, chlorine in swimming pools and salt water (like the sea!). Hairspray, perfume, moisturisers and cosmetics are all liquids that should be kept away from your Sterling Silver rings.

2. CLEAN OFTEN
We recommend using a polishing cloth regularly to prevent the natural process of tarnishing. If your ring does not contain a gemstone(s), clean your ring using warm soapy water and a soft brush. If your ring does contain a gemstone(s), avoid covering your ring in water and just use a small soft brush with soapy water. We do not recommend the use of silver polish and silver dip as it can destroy any delicate oxidised details of your ring.

3. TAKE OFF AT BEDTIME
This is because we all sweat. Make it a habit to take off all your rings before bed! We also recommend taking your rings off when exercising for the same reasons.

4. STORAGE
Never store your jewellery in the  humidity of your bathroom.  Jewellery should be stored away from natural sunlight and heat. Your ring should be stored in the plastic zip lock bag it was supplied in.


My finger has gone green, what should I do?

Take off your ring and refer to point 2 above. Next, you'll need to run yourself a little finger bath. Warm soapy water and a soft scrubbing brush should do the trick! If it still won't budge, try the below...

1. WATERPROOF EYE MAKEUP REMOVER

2. ALCOHOL CLEANSING WIPES

10 amazing facts about women.   1.

International Women's Day



10 amazing facts about women.

 

1. DEVASTATING. Over 60 million girls worldwide are child brides, married before the age of 18 and 603 million women live in countries where domestic violence is not yet considered a crime.

 

2. AWARENESS. Women's International Day is now an official holiday in many countries including Afghanistan, Cambodia, Mongolia, Vietnam and Zambia. 

 

3. SAD. Only 2% of women describe themselves as beautiful. Not entirely sure if this refers to physically beautiful, mentally beautiful or both, but nethertheless a sad statistic. We personally feel it's more likely due to the fact Women (and Men too for that matter!) are not socially 'allowed' to convey any self-love without being deemed and judged as self-centered, egocentric, arrogant, narcissistic or vain.

 

4. FACT. The two highest IQs ever recorded on a standard test both belong to women. #booooooooom

 

5. CREATIVE. Generally considered to be the world’s first novel, The Tale of Genji was written in Japan around AD 1000 by a women; Murasaki Shikibu.

 

6. WEIRD. Research has shown the probability of a woman giving birth to a baby girl instead of a baby boy increases significantly the nearer the mother lives to the equator. What the!!! Must. Find. Out. Why. Need answers.

 

7. YUM. An average women eats about 1.82kg to 4kg of lipstick in her lifetime. Seriously?

 

8. SEXIST. An average time a women can keep a secret is 47 hours and 15 minutes. Hmmm we feel a little sexist! In our experience Men are just as terrible as keeping secrets.

 

9. WOW. Brace yourself for this one......The most children born to one women is 69. OMG. Did this wonderful woman receive a medal?

 

10. THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT. Growth in women-owned businesses has outpaced the overall increase in new businesses by 1.5 times. 

 

Make everyday International Women's Day. Do your bit to ensure that the future for girls is bright, equal, safe and rewarding.

Green Finger Myth


Are you partial to a little green finger?


green finger sterling silver ring


FEAR NOT! You have not just been conned into buying a fake ring. Nor are you a green monster.

Many people think that your finger (or ring) turns green because it is not real silver. This is not the case. In fact, the opposite is true! Sterling Silver rings can turn your finger green because of the moisture (including water, sweat or humidity!) in the skin, causing a chemical reaction with the alloys in the Silver.

green finger ring

Some people will react more than others. This is simply due to the fact of 'human-ness' and different levels of moisture and acidity in the skin varies from one person to the next. So don't freak! You're not a green monster. Nor do you have to stop wearing Silver!!

Other acids that can cause tarnish and oxidisation are also found in the air, water, soaps and body lotion. Stay tuned for our next blog post on 'How to clean and care for your silver jewellery'

The 16th century was a dangerous time to be different. Many people believed that witches were part of a conspiracy who were given magical powers by the Devil to destroy the human race.

5 signs you'd qualify as a Witch in the 16th Century


witch burn fire 16th century

The 16th century was a dangerous time to be different. Many people believed that witches were part of a conspiracy who were given magical powers by the Devil to destroy the human race. Most of those who were branded Witches were women, as they were seen as the more 'wicked' sex. As mass paranoia spread across Europe, thousands of innocent people were sentenced to death.


You could have been considered a Witch if you qualified for any of the below...


1. If you own a cat.

If you were an owner of a cat, you we're more likely to be considered a Witch. Most cats during the Tudor period in England were burnt or otherwise destroyed because of the fear that they would attract evil. You may recall we often hear Royalty kept pets such as dogs and monkeys...but never cats!


2. You have a large mole or birthmark.

Any of these found on the body could be interpreted as the Devil's mark. The suspected 'Witches' were completely rid of their body hair until a marking was found.


3. You have attempted to predict the identity of your future husband.

That's right! No dreaming. To imagine or discuss what your future husband would be like was a sign of looking into the future and practising Witchcraft.

4. You have mouldy butter or milk in your fridge.

Several testimonials against the accused 'Witches' mention spoiled dairy products found in their homes. Go check. NOWWW!!!!


5. You float in water.

Many people were thrown into water with their thumbs tied to their opposite big toes. If they floated, they were guilty; if they sank, they were innocent...(and dead)
