With the pearl held at the center of the ring by a [protective halo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spectre-lunaflair), the ring bears a resemblance to the planet saturn. The gorgeous ring is handmade in the UK and goes for just over $100. It's clear that White is incredibly creative and he has a substantial background in product design and development, which involves everything from attending the Glasgow School of Art to co-founding his own business and even working as the Head of Product innovation at [Dyson Ltd.](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/water-based-intimate-mist) at one point. The jewelry designs that White now creates are beautiful and truly a testament to his talents. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Futuristic Jewelry Design:** Opportunity for designers to create unique and modern jewelry pieces inspired by futuristic elements. - **Protective Halo Settings:** Opportunity for jewelers to explore innovative ways of securing gemstones using protective halo settings. - **Handmade Luxury Accessories:** The rise in demand for handmade luxury accessories presents an opportunity for artisans to create high-end, custom items. ### Where This Applies - **Jewelry Design:** Jewelry designers can leverage futuristic concepts and materials to create innovative and eye-catching designs. - **Gemstone Setting:** Jewelers can develop new ways of setting gemstones using protective halo settings to provide both style and protection. - **Artisanal Luxury Goods:** Artisans can capitalize on the growing market for handmade luxury accessories by offering unique and customizable products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pearl-Accented Modern Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wonder-pearl.md) - [Jewel-Inspired Chandelier Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pearl-chandelier.md) - [Confectionery-Inspired Ring Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brilliant-earth.md) - [Luxury Solar System Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bejeweled-solar-system-set.md) - [Free-Form Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pandora-essence.md) - [Contemporary Sapphire Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zadie.md) - [Personalized Wedding Bands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personalized-wedding-bands.md) - [Galactic-Inspired Stationary Pins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/planet-pins.md) - [Personalized Mixed-Cut Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/austen-blake.md)
