'Fine jewelry is the ultimate decorative accessory and a personal statement,' says designer Stephen Webster. 'It should have a breath of the exotic, of the far-flung treasures of the earth.' The award-winning jeweler has long been a fashion insider's secret but he caught the media's attention after creating Madonna's wedding ring in 2000. His eye-catching gems have since been spotted on everyone from Sienna Miller to Charlize Theron. Webster's signature is large brightly colored precious stones set in vibrant white gold which he's been designing since the line was launched in 1976.
