RECOGNISING AN ICON

THE HOTLIPS RING HAS BECOME AN ICON OF MODERN JEWELLERY DESIGN

Designed by Solange Azagury-Partridge, the first Hotlips ring was created in 1995 as the embodiment of the perfect lipstick on a beautiful, kissable mouth. Instantly beloved by press and celebrities, the Hotlips has been featured in top publications and seen on the the world's most stylist women. In 2008, the Classic Red Hotlips was acquired by the Victoria & Albert Museum for their permanent jewellery collection. The collection has since expanded to include a myriad of pop colours, patterns, and precious materials; each release as unique as the individual wearer.

QUALITY CRAFTMANSHIP

Every ring is handmade and hand painted in enamel by skilled craftsman who have honed their skills over decades of experience in the fine jewellery trade.

Only the finest 100% recycled sterling silver and enamel resins are used in the creation. We ensure everyone we work with is a member of the Responsible Jewellery Council who have the upmost respect for human rights and the planet.

DESIGN

Each Hotlips ring starts its journey in the design phase. Solange starts with an idea or mood, working with her team based out of her West London studio, to create either hand sketches or 3D models to bring her thoughts to life. The designs are then refined through creating 3D prints, casting and polishing silver samples made by our London workshop, and hand-mixing enamel to achieve the perfect colour. No detail is left untouched to ensure every aspect is perfect before approving the final design.

HALLMARKING

Once a ring is created, it undergoes a thorough quality control inspection. Once passed, each piece is individually hallmarked by the UK Goldsmiths Company Assay Office to be independently tested for quality and fineness of material.

The hallmarking present on every piece conveys the material, the designer who made it, the location of hallmarking, and the date of manufacture.
