Ms Ramshaw first began designing jewellery in the early 60s. Over the past five decades her work has attracted attention worldwide and has led to her appointment as CBE for services to the arts.

However, it is the stacking ring, found in high-end jewellery stores as well as high-street fashion outlets, for which she is best known. It is Ms Ramshaw’s most enduring design and won her a Design Council award for innovation in 1972. It is still produced by her studio, which has been based in Clerkenwell, London for the past 30 years. Her stacking rings, which sit one on top of another on the finger, are fashioned in yellow 18ct gold or more subtle white gold or silver and are as skilfully made as any pieces from more famous jewellery houses. However, Ms Ramshaw favours semi-precious stones over emeralds and diamonds, to make her jewellery pop with colour. She also loves to use moonstones and make the most of their white, yet iridescent lights.
