Guess who i've invited today for a special cocktail hour? No, no, don't prepare your Margaritas yet because today we'r talking about cocktail rings! More precisely, about Ippolita.
“My goal is to create jewelry that you really want to wear all the time, that is easy and that makes you feel good – jewelry that is unintimidating yet cool” says Ippolita. She is strongly influenced by fashion, yet manages to create pieces that stand the test of time.


David Yurman originally studied sculpturing and came into the jewelry design business after a short artist career as sculptor. After positive reaction to an angel shaped copper belt buckle that he designed for his wife, Sybil, he created and sold additional belt buckle designs and started experimenting with wire and eventually crafted his signature design – that of a twisted cable.
His original twisted cable design was crafted into helix-shaped bracelets with jeweled terminators. Now this twisted cable design is incorporated into every piece of jewelry he designs. For example, his large cocktail rings are set with a twisted cable bezel and his link necklaces will alternate twisted cable links with smooth links.
