Swedish GemGroup

Swedish Gem Group travels the globe sourcing sapphires and forwards the story of each one to their customers. The reason why the details of each sapphire can be preserved through the cutting process is that this Swedish company operates their own 5-cutters lapidary in Nivithigala, Sri Lanka. Here, traceability is taken so seriously that each rough crystal yielding a clean gem above 1 carat is photographed before it is cut.

Renisis

Renisis is the artistic vision of Sardwell, a sculptor and designer whose work lives at the intersection of jewellery, sculpture, and theatre. Rooted in the Latin words renitor (to strive or resist) and genesis (a beginning), Renisis represents struggle, rebirth, and creative transformation. Each piece channels the power of sculpture to alter space—now reimagined as wearable art that empowers and transports its wearer. Drawing inspiration from Sardwell’s travels through China, Brazil, and beyond, Renisis celebrates human connection, craftsmanship, and the beauty of becoming.
