Gucci unveils new Icon Rings & adds to Horsebit Fine Jewellery collection




Following on from Gucci’s Icon ring in black synthetic corundum, the Icon range has now been extended with the addition of two new white rings in zirconia powder. Crafted by Gucci goldsmiths in Italy, the white rings are made from a unique new material: zirconia powder. Zirconia powder is a pure material, an ideal alternative for those prone to allergic reactions from metals. Gucci Jewelry’s new Icon ring comes in two variants, each in a 7mm style. The white version displays Gucci’s GG motif around the band, while a more contemporary variant shows the GG pattern accented with yellow gold studs (shown above). Both styles feature two 18kt yellow gold strips, which offset the bright white material. 






Gucci has introduce three new pieces to the Horsebit Fine Jewelry Collection. These latest variations, designed either in 18kt yellow or pink gold, include a bracelet, drop earrings and a ring, all featuring Gucci’s horsebit motif. Each piece is crafted in a slimmer style than the current Horsebit jewelry and will match with existing pieces from the range. Conceived by Aldo Gucci in the 50s, the horsebit motif was first used as a decorative element for bags and subsequently affixed to shoes and leather goods. The new collections are available in stores this month, with the exception of the bracelet, which is scheduled in-store from September.
