Who says kids should have all the fun?
Inspired by childhood dreams of marriage, weddings and forever love, this bespoke ring captures the magic of falling head over heels for the first time. Because no matter how old you are, your special day should be filled with the same thrill you felt with your first crush.
We always go all the way for love. Which is why our sweet-inspired ring features a 2.70ct cabochon yellow sapphire set with 40 fancy-intense yellow diamonds in an 18ct yellow gold basket. 224 custom cut rubies totalling a weight of 3.60ct are invisible set into an 18ct rose gold band.
Priced at £25,000, we even estimate that you could purchase over 1,250,000 of the 2p jelly sweets for the same value of this ring!

“Our engagement was perfect.”
Our sweet-inspired ring also draws inspiration from the real-life sweetie proposals we’ve head about here at Taylor & Hart over the years. The spontaneity and playfulness of a candy-infused proposal was the exact thing David needed to get down on one knee for his fiancée Vivienne.
Having been proposed to with a jelly candy ring, Vivienne says that there could be no better way for the big day to have gone down. “No frills or fuss. Just simple and a very special memory I will have forever.”
On a lazy Saturday morning David said he was going to bring Vivienne a cup of tea in bed. But instead he brought up a a tray covered in rose petals and a handmake box containing the sugary ring. “I had no idea, was totally surprised and he said it was the quickest “yes” I had ever said. I couldn’t stop crying!”
After a dinner with her family that night to celebrate the news, Vivienne and David came to Taylor & Hart later that week to share in the experience of designing their dream ring.
Our design team couldn't help but dream up a few colourful variations of our favourite treats.
And if you’re after something a little more classically simple, our design team put together this delicious interpretation featuring a centre cabochon ruby starting from £1,735.
