Tourmaline is one of the birthstones of October, and is the more durable of the two, its counterpart being opal. Tourmaline has been said to be a stone of reconciliation, a stone that fosters compassion and cool headedness, healing and friendship. It also creates a commitment towards the completion of one’s goals and is said to protect the wearer against dangers. It is also the gem that married couples traditionally gift on their 8th wedding anniversary.
The Designer
Jo Hayes Ward's creative journey started with a fascination with sculpture, as she was drawn to experimenting with shapes, structures and 3D patterns. Jo describes her work as 'metamorphic' for many reasons. Each piece of jewellery is formed of multiple elements and textures that combine to create extremely original compositions that hint at geological form, and have an architectural but also organic feel. 'Metamorphic' also means that Jo's jewellery is transformative; rings work particularly well as stacks, necklaces layer delicately, and earrings can be worn in various ways. JHW jewellery is endlessly versatile; worn and adored both night and day.
Harnessing the way light is reflected off delicate golden blocks and their facets is the magic of Jo’s designs; pieces come alive when worn, shimmering like dappled light on water. Gems work beautifully alongside glistening cubes and patterned formations. Scattered diamonds sparkle in many pieces, enhancing the metal structures with their cuts and colours, while unique precious gems and rose cut diamonds render her one-of-a-kind pieces utterly spellbinding.
