New Gemstones, New Possibilities 💎

I recently attended a private gemstone showing, and I felt like a kid in a candy store. I brought home a beautiful selection of stones, each with something different to offer a custom design.

One that caught my eye was a 0.95-carat Montana sapphire with a long hexagonal shape. Its soft green colour and elongated outline would make such a lovely starting point for a ring.

I also selected a 1.33-carat square cushion blue sapphire, a 0.97-carat hexagonal pink sapphire and a rich rhodolite garnet weighing 2.21 carats. The garnet is an emerald cut—that refers to its shape and cutting style, rather than the type of gemstone.

The teal sapphires offer three different shapes to explore: oval, long hexagon and baguette. Choosing the shape is part of creating the overall feel of a piece, whether you prefer softer curves or more defined lines.

And my personal favourite? The 0.70-carat oval tsavorite. I had been looking for that beautiful green all year, and I was so happy to find it.

Thinking about a custom piece for Christmas? Book a consultation at my Ladner Village studio and let’s look at these stones together. 💛

Here's what I've been working on lately! ✨

I've been busy in the studio creating some beautiful custom jewellery, and I wanted to share a little of what I've been working on.

From vibrant green tsavorite garnet rings to a classic three-stone diamond ring and a custom yellow gold diamond pendant, each piece has its own personality.

One of my favourite projects was a custom 18K yellow gold pendant featuring a 1.57 ct Old Mine Brilliant Cut diamond, surrounded by 18 smaller diamonds. We also incorporated the customer's own 0.49 ct diamond into the design, making it even more personal. It's the second photo!

I love seeing how different gemstones, settings and ideas come together to create something unique for each customer.

A timeless design with a modern approach to diamonds. ✨

This 18K Yellow Gold Natural Diamond and Lab-Created Diamond Ring brings together the warmth of rich yellow gold with the brilliance of diamonds in a bold, beautifully detailed design.

At the centre, a striking diamond takes the spotlight, surrounded by additional diamond accents and structured rows of smaller stones along the shoulders of the ring. The combination of natural and lab-created diamonds creates a piece that feels both classic and contemporary, while the substantial 18K yellow gold setting gives it a distinctive presence.

It’s a beautiful example of how thoughtful design can bring together different types of diamonds to create something completely unique.

Did you know sapphires aren’t just blue? 💎

Sapphires come in an incredible range of colours—from soft pinks and yellows to greens, purples, and beautiful shades in between. It’s one of the reasons I love working with them so much.

When most people think of a sapphire, they immediately picture that classic deep blue. But exploring different colours can completely change the direction of a piece and open up so many possibilities for creating jewellery that feels more personal.

At my studio, I love introducing clients to stones they may not have considered before. Sometimes you come in with a very specific colour in mind, and other times you discover a stone that catches your eye and becomes the starting point for the entire design.

That’s part of the fun of creating custom jewellery. You don’t have to choose what’s expected. You can choose the colour, shape, and stone that feels right for you and build something truly individual around it.

If you’re thinking about creating a custom piece, especially with Christmas approaching, now is a great time to start planning so we have plenty of time to bring your idea to life.

A little sparkle, a lot of character. ✨

This 18K Yellow Gold Natural Diamond and Lab-Created Diamond Ring is a beautiful study in contrast, bringing together diamonds in different shapes and sizes to create a design full of movement and brilliance.

The delicate arrangement of natural and lab-created diamonds gives the ring a unique, layered look, while the warm tone of 18K yellow gold adds richness and timeless elegance. From every angle, the diamonds catch the light beautifully, making this a piece that feels both sophisticated and distinctly personal.

At Trish Arato Design Studio, jewellery is about more than the finished piece—it’s about creating something that reflects the person who wears it.

Thinking about a custom ring or reimagining a piece of jewellery you already own? Book a consultation with Trish in Ladner Village.

A striking combination of colour, light, and timeless elegance. 💚✨

This Yellow Gold Natural Diamond Emerald and Citrine Pendant brings together rich green emeralds, warm golden citrine, and natural diamonds in a beautifully balanced design.

Set in yellow gold, the geometric arrangement gives the pendant a refined, almost Art Deco-inspired character, while the combination of emerald green and golden citrine adds warmth and depth. The diamonds bring just the right touch of sparkle, drawing the eye through the entire design.

It’s a wonderful example of how coloured gemstones can transform a piece of jewellery into something distinctive and deeply personal—something that feels both classic and completely individual.

A Closer Look at Some Beautiful Diamonds ✨

One of my favourite parts of what I do is helping clients find a stone that feels just right for them.

In this video, I’m taking a closer look at a few beautiful diamonds, from fancy orangey-yellow to deep orange-yellow, as well as a stunning D colour emerald-cut pair.

Every stone has its own character, and there are so many possibilities when it comes to creating a custom piece around the right diamond.

If you have a stone in mind, or you’re simply curious about what’s possible, book a consultation at my Ladner Village studio and let’s have a look together. 💛

A Look at What’s Been Coming Together in the Studio ✨

A few of the pieces I’ve been working on recently, each with a very different approach to colour, metal and design.

The 18K Yellow Gold Tsavorite Garnet and Lab Created Diamond Ring brings together rich green colour and diamond sparkle. The 18K Yellow Gold Multi Diamond Bubble Ring is all about movement and the way different diamond sizes create dimension. And the 19K White Gold Multi Diamond Ring With Yellow Gold Diamond Jackets explores the contrast between white and yellow gold.

What I enjoy most about designing jewellery is bringing all of these elements together and understanding how they change the feel of a piece. A gemstone can set the direction for a design, while the choice of metal, setting and proportions helps determine how the finished piece comes together.

After years of working with gemstones and jewellery design, I’ve learned that small details can make a big difference. Sometimes it’s the colour of a gemstone, sometimes the way diamonds are arranged, and sometimes it’s simply finding the right balance between the metal and the stones.

These are just a few examples of what has been keeping me busy in the studio lately. 💛

A Night to Celebrate Ladner ✨

What a night at the 2026 Art & W**e Stroll!

Even with the rain, the event was sold out and Ladner Village was full of people coming together to support local businesses, artists and our community.

I loved spending the evening visiting local businesses, catching up with familiar faces and meeting new ones along the way. It was wonderful to see so many people out supporting the businesses and artists who make Ladner such a special place.

I was also proud to support the evening through Trish Arato Design Studio and to donate a sterling silver hummingbird pendant, which was won by Angela. Congratulations! 🐦✨

A big thank you to the Ladner Business Association, the artists, volunteers, musicians, food trucks, sponsors and everyone who came out and made the evening such a success.

This is what community looks like. Proudly Canadian, and proud to call Ladner Village home. 🇨🇦
