Kiki McDonough is celebrating 20 years of its Detachables Collection with the addition of 20 new, limited edition pieces.
The concept, where hoops and earring drops can be selected separately, was first pioneered by the designer two decades ago to allow for “seamless transitions from day to day, or day to night”.
The new limited edition detachable drops feature Rhodolite Garnet, Fire Opal, Morganite, Briolette, Pink Opal, Pink and Green Tourmaline, Yellow Beryl, Peridot, Fluorite, Aquamarine and Iolite, many of which are surrounded by diamonds.
Each gemstone has been selected for its “vibrancy”, including Fire Opal sourced in Mexico and Pink Opal sourced from Peru. Some new editions are “distinctive” in the way they are cut, in such a way that requires skilled lapidaries to perfect diamond shaped facets over the entire stone’s surface.
Additionally, these gemstones come in a multitude of colours and shapes including hearts, ovals, pears and cushions, which fit on a selection of Kiki Hoops.
Kiki McDonough, founder of the eponymous brand, said: “I love choosing different detachable drops to put on to Kiki Hoops depending on my outfit and my mood. All the earrings add a touch of colour, which brightens the face.
“It’s wonderful to be marking two decades of the Detachables collection, as the concept simply didn’t exist before we developed it, and I am so pleased that so many customers find it as practical and pleasing as I do to pick and choose how to tailor their jewellery to fit in with their lifestyle.”
