Alexandra’s designs have a modern-vintage flair to them that is unique and statement-making. Engagement rings are one of Alexandra’s favourite things to craft and on this show, she shares there’s been a shift in what’s trending in stone shape—the oval has competition. We also talk about the popularity of larger carat weight gemstones, the affordability of lab diamonds and why reworking a family heirloom piece into something new and meaningful is a very special part of Alexandra’s job. &amp;nbsp; Aisle Seat https://www.alisonmcgill.ca/ <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/34297535/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/181982575
