Cece Jewellery Celebrates Love in New Collection
The “Extraordinary Lovers” collection features engagement rings with enamel scenes inspired by art and mythology.
Cece Jewellery’s new collection centers around three motifs, “Apple of My Eye,” “Window to the Soul,” and “Secrets of the Sea” with engagement rings, matching lockets, and diamond charms.
London—Cece Jewellery has debuted a new collection centered on love.
The “Extraordinary Lovers” collection “captures your own singular love story for all time,” explained the brand, with an offering that includes chunky signet style engagement rings, matching lockets, and diamond charms.
Throughout the 15 pieces, Cece Fein Hughes, founder of the brand, reimagines romance in her signature lens, giving each piece its own story with hand-painted champlevé enamel scenes.
Hughes drew inspiration from art and mythology to create three motifs, “Apple of My Eye,” “Window to the Soul,” and “Secrets of the Sea.”

Hughes drew inspiration from art and mythology to create three motifs, “Apple of My Eye,” “Window to the Soul,” and “Secrets of the Sea.”
The “Apple of My Eye” ring in 18-karat yellow gold with a 3-carat heart-shaped diamond solitaire flanked by an enamel portrait highlighted with brilliant-cut diamonds (price upon request)
The matching locket on a belcher chain with “Apple of My Eye” engraved on the front and circled by a brilliant-cut diamond snake ($17,325)
The “Apple of My Eye” engagement ring centers around a 3-carat heart-shaped diamond that is flanked by an enamel image of a bowl overflowing with fruit, a depiction of the “sensual, all-consuming exuberance of love,” said the brand.
The scene was inspired by an 18th century painting by French artist Jean-Honoré Fragonard titled, “The Swing.”
Along with this engagement ring is a coordinating locket of the same name. Once opened, the enamel painting depicts an apple with a bite missing being pieced by an engraved arrow.
Cece Jewellery’s “Window to the Soul” engagement ring has a 3-carat emerald-cut diamond set in a frame of 18-carat yellow gold and a painting on each side of the diamond depicting a dove flying against a window, looking out to the night sky with brilliant-cut diamond stars (price upon request).
The “Lover’s Eye” locket can be customized with an image of any eye in champlevé enamel. It’s surrounded by a circle of brilliant-cut diamonds all set in 18-karat yellow gold and hangs on a belcher chain ($20,494).
Hughes’ second motif comes from “The Kiss,” an 18th century sculpture by French sculptor Auguste Rodin.
In the “Window to the Soul” engagement ring, a dove on each side of the diamond is pictured in flight, one carrying a lock and the other a key.
This chunky signet-style ring has a 3-carat emerald-cut solitaire diamond and tells the story of long-lost love stories, concealed kisses, and endless daydreams, said the brand.
The “Lover’s Eye” locket is paired with this engagement ring as a depiction of the heart’s deepest longings in a nod to vintage lover’s eye jewelry.
Inside the locket is a painting of an eye with a single teardrop that the brand said can be interpreted as a tear of joy, a couple parting ways, or remembrance.
The “Secrets of the Sea” engagement ring with a 3-carat oval-cut diamond flanked by two scenes of a trident rising from engraved waves and treasures from the sea with a message in a bottle (price upon request)
The matching locket in 18-karat yellow gold with a hand-painted enamel scene telling the tale of sailor lore, along with pearls and brilliant-cut diamonds. It hangs on a figaro chain ($17,325).
The “Secrets of the Sea” engagement ring is meant to capture the eternal nature of true love, explains the brand, as a play on sailor lore and two lovers exchanging messages in a bottle.
On each side of the solitaire diamond is a trident emerging from an engraved wave, a message in a bottle, a skull, some shells, and three painted pearls. Meanwhile, the bottom of the ring is engraved with “love prevails.”
The matching locket opens to show a similar scene with a message in a bottle and seashells surrounded by pearls.
All of the lockets in the Extraordinary Lovers collection can be customized with an engraving on the blank section of the inside left part of the locket or anywhere else on the piece.
The collection also includes three styles of diamond charms, each set in 18-karat yellow gold.
The “Sweetheart” charms are heart-shaped diamonds meant to represent a sweet expression of love and match the solitaire diamond in the “Apple of My Eye” ring.
There are also the “Window to the Soul” diamond charms with matching emerald-cut diamonds representing windows and the “Secrets of the Sea” diamond charms with oval-cut diamonds the brand said were selected to “celebrate love’s boundless expanse.”
The Extraordinary Lovers collection is available on Cece Jewellery’s website.
