The month of March marks the arrival of spring. A time of rebirth, rejuvenation and renewal, this festive time of year brings the sun out to shine chasing away the remnants of winter’s snow to make way for delicate buds and florals to peek through the warming earth. With springtime comes a riot of colour from bright yellow daffodils to pink camellias. This is Mother Nature's nod to flowers and blooms to remind us that the long awaited sunshine of the summer months is just around the corner.

March also marks the revival of one of jewellery’s most treasured design trends - florals. With much to celebrate around this time of year, such as the ever important Mother’s Day, it is the perfect time of year to give those you love a beautiful piece of jewellery inspired by the florals of the season. While we see stunning bouquets of freshly picked flowers displayed in homes and in every shop, much like the fleeting seasons, they will only last for a brief moment. We say, let’s make this beauty last! Give those you love a floral arrangement that will invoke the spirit of spring last not only year round but many lifetimes. From ancient gliptics of lotus flowers to today’s fine jewellery pieces featuring floral inspired patterns and vivid colourful gemstones, jewellery designers across the world have brought flowers to life through various precious materials and stones.

Traditionally, the classic combination of white gold and diamonds are a true staple in floral jewellery design. Whether a simple setting on a custom diamond band, or a pair of drop chain earrings resembling morning dew, Mappin & Webb have been creating beautiful pieces of fine jewellery for over 240 years.
