"It’s almost a shock to see hands full of such tiny little rings do any work at all. Shouldn’t they be the hands of ladies who lunch? Shouldn’t they be grasping a china tea cup or a cucumber sandwich or something? No. As my forays into the world of delicate jewellery have proved, you should wear your fine pieces everyday. Only then do they become part of your routine and only then do they take on the kind of utilitarian simplicity that all the best jewellery has."
