DISCOVER OUR MIDAS COLLECTION

30th December 2024

Intricate, decorative details have always defined our Midas collection, drawing the eye in to discover the beautiful minutiae ingrained in the precious gold. The unique aesthetic of the collection is a fusion of influences from Ruth’s travels and fascination with India, combined with a sense of history and a contemporary twist.

Ruth took some time away this year on a creative sabbatical and visited Jaipur where she rekindled her love for India and used the opportunity to inform the inspiration for some new designs. The newest additions to the collection were inspired by the creative energy of the city and its craftspeople, celebrating the tiny marks and forms that the hand can forge into gold to produce enduring wearable treasures.

See snapshots from Ruth's trip below alongside some new favourites from the collection.

FREE DELIVERY

We offer complimentary, fully insured and tracked worldwide shipping on all orders, delivered in our signature R.T packaging

RINGS

Our goldsmiths can craft rings in UK, US and European ring sizes, please leave us a note during checkout if you wish to order in an international ring size or do not see your size listed online. Half and quarter sizes can also be accommodated. Ready-to-Ship styles can be resized in approximately 10 working days from order date, all other styles will be made to order in your chosen size.

Try to provide us with the correct ring size when you place your order. The most accurate way to have your finger size measured is with a professional jeweller with the correct tools. Alternative methods such as print-at-home guides and plastic ring gauges can be convenient but they may not provide a precise measurement. Please note that conversions between UK/US/ EU ring sizes are accurate to within approximately 1/4 of a finger size.

All ring purchases are inclusive of a complimentary resize (plus shipping) within three months of delivery, with the exception of eternity and wrap style bands which cannot be resized. If your ring needs further adjustments to the size, or falls outside of this timeline, this will be a chargeable service and will be quoted for based on the complexity of the resize, plus a delivery fee. Shipping, handling and custom fees for resizes are the sole responsibility of the customer.

If you have any questions about sizing, please contact us on info@ruthtomlinson.com

Tips for Measuring your Ring Size

Your finger size can change during the day and will also fluctuate depending on how hot/cold they are – your fingers tend to be at their largest at the end of the day. We recommend measuring your hands when they are at an average temperature for you to give the most accurate size.

A wider band will feel tighter than a narrower band. When purchasing a particularly wide band, we recommend choosing a full size larger than your normal ring size.

When measuring a size, we would look for resistance at the knuckle particularly when removing, and some movement on the finger to allow for when your hands are warmer and your fingers at their largest. Each person’s finger will be shaped differently, our team/a jeweller can advise more specifically for each individual in person.

Bracelets and Cuffs

Our chain and beaded bracelets measure approximately 17.5 cm in length as standard. Our signature cuffs can be ordered in the following sizes:

Small 56mm (inside diameter) Medium 61mm (inside diameter)Large 66mm (inside diameter)

A custom length/ size can be ordered on request, please enquire before placing an order as this may affect the price.
