Summary
On this show, Alison chats with renowned custom jewellery designer Kat Florence who creates dazzling bespoke pieces. Kat is famous for her one-of-a-kind jewellery crafted with dazzling, rare gemstones (Golconda diamonds are her current obsession) fashioned into collectible pieces that feel at once old world and modern. "I love the contrast of the old with the new," is how Kat describes her design aesthetic. Kat shares her favourite engagement ring ideas of the moment on this episode, and why she has a particular passion for coloured gemstones. She also talks about her latest business venture, Kat Florence Hotels , a luxury boutique property which she opened a year ago in her Canadian hometown of Elora, Ontario. The intimate hotel just won a 2025 Conde Nast Readers' Choice Award; Kat has created the ultimate getaway, a place to slow down, savour and feel extremely well taken care of.
