Independent award-winning jewellery retail business Bradley's Jewellers York has updated its Eco Rocks brand with the new Eco Rocks Colour Editions Collection of fine jewellery set with synthetic coloured stones and laboratory-grown diamonds.

Following the success of its first foray into laboratory-grown diamond jewellery, Bradley's Jewellers York has created a debut line of three-stone rings, each one set with a laboratory-created coloured stone solitaire flanked by two laboratory-grown diamonds.

The collection follows the same branding and commitment to honesty, authenticity and transparency as the wider Eco Rocks brand, which was launched in 2021. All pieces carry the Eco Rocks sponsor mark, the Eco Rocks logo, the anchor hallmark to denote Birmingham Assay Office, plus the date letter for 2023 and the King Charles III Coronation commemorative hallmark.

Eco Rocks and Bradley's Jewellers York owner, Kay Bradley, commented: "I have always strived to give my customers the widest possible choice when it comes to diamonds, laboratory-grown diamonds, coloured gemstones and now synthetic coloured stones. We lead with a commitment to best practice, especially around terminology, so that our clients understand exactly what they are buying. I am so proud of Eco Rocks Colour Editions and I can't wait for my customers to see these exceptional quality stones in all their vibrant glory!"

Bradley's Jewellers York sources its synthetic coloured stones from a US-based supplier, which is globally recognised for the quality of its laboratory-grown materials. Its modern production methods ensure large carat weights, exceptional clarity and bright, saturated colours across a range of synthetic stones, including synthetic emeralds, synthetic rubies, synthetic sapphires, synthetic spinels, synthetic chrysoberyls and synthetic alexandrites, starting from 0.50 carats and rising to 10 carats. Examples include oval, round and emerald-cut stones and one-off masterpieces, including a special York Rose Cut synthetic chrysoberyl. Designs are available in platinum and 9k and 18k white, yellow and rose gold.

To support its customers, the Eco Rocks website (ecorocksyork.com) has been updated with a dedicated explainer page that shares further information about laboratory-grown coloured stone production processes. Prices for new items start at RRP £950 for a 0.91 carat oval-shaped synthetic chrysoberyl and laboratory-grown diamond ring set in 9ct white gold, rising to £2,950 for a 5.42 carat oval-shaped synthetic yellow sapphire and laboratory-grown diamond ring, set in 9ct yellow gold.

Customers can shop pieces online and in-store at Bradley's Jewellers York on Low Petergate in the historic city. Further information about Bradley's Jewellers York can be found here: bradleysjewellersyork.com

Celebrant vs registrar vs humanist celebrant: What's the difference? Ceremony Master explains... Choosing who will lead your wedding ceremony is an important decision, but understanding the difference between a registrar, an independent celebrant and a humanist celebrant can help you decide what's right for your day. From the legal requirements of getting married to creating a personal, meaningful ceremony that reflects your relationship, each option offers something different. A registrar takes care of the legal civil marriage, while an independent celebrant can create a bespoke ceremony tailored to your story, preferences and values. A humanist celebrant also leads a personal ceremony, but one rooted in humanist beliefs and a non-religious outlook. The important distinction is that not every celebrant is authorised to legally marry a couple, and the rules vary across the UK

Modern wedding rituals revealed as Brits bury sausages for the big day

For decades, the British wedding has followed a well-known rulebook of etiquette, from formal seating plans to three tier cakes. However, new research from Moonpig, the UK's leading online greeting card and gift retailer, has revealed that the nation is moving away from these traditions in favour of highly personal and often quirky rituals. The study of 1,500 Brits reveals that authenticity is winning over tradition. Six in ten (59%) believe a wedding should be a true reflection of the couple's personalities, even if it means breaking classic wedding etiquette. To ensure their day feels truly unique, many are turning to unconventional superstitions and spiritual services. Over one in five (22%) Brits said they have buried or would consider burying a sausage to guarantee good weather on their wedding day. Meanwhile, over a third (39%) would consider hiring an 'Etsy witch' or similar spiritualist to provide blessing rituals for their big day.

Wowcher’s spa expert Cheryl Corns shares five ways to enjoy a little luxury for less

A relaxing spa visit doesn't have to involve an overnight stay or a three-figure budget. From choosing a shorter treatment with facilities access to comparing afternoon packages, there are ways to enjoy a little luxury while keeping spending down. Cheryl Corns, Wowcher's spa expert, shares five practical tips to help people find a spa experience that suits their budget. "Start with what you'd most enjoy from your visit," says Cheryl. "A massage, a swim and some time in the sauna might be exactly what you're looking for. You don't necessarily need a long treatment or an overnight stay to make it feel like a treat.
