Shaun Leane was voted the UK’s 2010 designer of the year; he got his start collaborating with the late Alexander McQueen. His pieces are sinuous and draw on the darker side of nature; thorns, entwined brances, black diamonds. There are also luscious sterling silver designs set with pearls that give them a very contemporary edge.

This band is listed as a men’s ring on his site and I think it would make the perfect wedding band for either a man or a woman. Crafted of 18k white gold set with black diamonds, it is also available with white stones. Sells for £2,100.00
