“My milestones”: The 2025 annual ring from Wellendorff

The year is coming to an end and there is this very special mix of anticipation and looking back in the air. It is the time when we pause and reflect on the year. What have we experienced? Which goals achieved? Learned something new? It is these moments, the milestones, big or small, that shape our lives and make us grow. His this yeardedicates the traditionalWellendorff jewelry companyexactly these milestones.

Since 1997, the Pforzheim jewelry manufacturer Wellendorff has dedicated a new ring every year. The annual rings are limited and always associated with a special story. This makes it clear: a piece of jewelry is so much more than just an accessory. It is the combination of value and meaning in which the most precious materials come together. Only through the artistry of the creator does the special piece of jewelry become what it is.

The 18-carat yellow gold ring can be rotated to show off the sparkling line of diamonds that runs around it even better. The sweeping wave of over 50 diamonds represents the recurring rhythm of life. For the ups and downs that are experienced throughout the year. Every single diamond represents a milestone.

is known for its sophisticated and innovative craftsmanship. So it's no wonder that this year's annual ring is also a real eye-catcher - in the truest sense of the word, because the honeycomb pattern, which initially appears simply hexagonal and two-dimensional, gets the illusion of a three-dimensional cube in certain light thanks to the precise engraving techniques and different engraving depths captivates viewers.

The color of the ring is also worth a second, third and fourth look: If the piece of jewelry initially appears in a shimmering emerald green, the next time you look at it it can flash in a rich petrol blue. With every movement, the ring changes color depending on the light and viewing angle. Wellendorff's cold enamel artists apply these by hand and in several layers to the total of 97 individual surfaces.

This year there will be 225 rings for 225 people celebrating life with its ups and downs, the big and small moments. No matter whether it's a career move, a big trip, a convivial evening with loved ones or even a difficult time that you've overcome - Wellendorff creates a homage to life, captured in gold.

The “My Milestones” annual ring will be available from December 6, 2024 at selected jewelers and Wellendorff boutiques.
