Ruth Tomlinson at Polka Dot Gallery

An emporium of contemporary jewellery in the heart of Exeter, Polka Dot Gallery is home to a standout selection of jewellery collections from a brilliantly talented line-up of south-west based and international designers. From Sophie Harley’s distinctive and dazzlingly beautiful designs to Alex Monroe’s dainty, nature-inspired pieces, there’s something for everyone – whether you’re seeking an engagement ring, wedding band, bridal jewellery or wedding party gifts.

The Ruth Tomlinson collection is a favourite at the gallery. Based in London’s historic jewellery district of Hatton Garden, the British designer is celebrated for her exquisite signature style and unique approach, marrying fine craftsmanship with stunning artistry. Often drawing inspiration from the natural world, folklore and her travels, each piece is a lovingly handcrafted work of art, marked by her signature granular intricacies and ethereal character. With sustainability being key to Ruth’s ethos, all metals and stones are carefully and ethically sourced. “We are committed to sourcing our materials in a responsible manner, exclusively using 100% recycled gold and individually sourced gemstones,” she explains. 

Picture a dainty pendant featuring a solitare diamond nestled amongst tiny golden granules; a gently textured engagement ring scattered with champagne and white diamonds; a wedding band dotted with tiny blue sapphires and diamonds, and a ring of pink-red rubies seemingly floating amongst granules of gold. You’ll find these ethereal and enchanting heirlooms – and so much more – amongst the treasures of Polka Dot Gallery.
