Piece of the Week: Jade Trau’s ‘Billie’ Ring
The statement style is an inventive take on an ID bracelet.
An ID bracelet is elegant and modern in the hands of Jade Trau, who perfects the style with a matte gold finish and pavé diamonds.
Also present in her collection as an ID tag, now, Trau has adapted the best-selling piece into an entirely unique silhouette.
Meet the “Billie” ring. It’s a statement ring inspired by its engravable ID bracelet predecessor, transforming the hexagonal shape into a bold, right-hand style.
Just as the ID bracelet and Billie ID tag are meant to anchor a wrist or neck stack, respectively, the Billie ring can be worn with skinnier styles. The impactful jewel isn’t lacking in drama, however, and packs a punch worn on its own.
Crafted in 18-karat yellow gold (seen below), white gold, or rose gold (pictured at top), the ring features 0.58 carats of diamonds. It sells for $6,000 on JadeTrau.com.
