Kate&Bee is a London-based jewelry designer that creates these amazingly detailed, on point, stunningly clustered rings which are now available at Opening Ceremony.

I am crazy about these [handmade accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pretty-weird) and this collection by Kat&Bee for Spring/Summer has a list of many notable features. To start, these rings were inspired by [undersea life](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tuckernuck) which is apparent by the colorful combination of different stones, beads and gems all clustered together. Secondly, the variation of bright beads and obscure rocks are all intricately coiled together with fine gold wire and fixed onto the face of a gold or silver skull adding a slight contrast to the pretty colors.

Rings are always a nice addition to your accessory collection and these [detailed clusters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiyu) by Kat&Bee are 14k gold will add a touch of fun to your fingers.
