DESIGN

The reverse design by Chris and Rosina Reid of Three Degrees Creative is inspired by the 0.24 carat Forevermark Black Label oval cut diamond centrepiece. The engraved arrangement is an artistic interpretation of the diamond’s light performance and features rising layers of geometric shapes engraved in ultra high relief (UHR). The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

“What struck us most about the oval-cut diamond was the exquisite contrast of a smooth, curving outer shape with a complex interior filled with geometric angles and shapes. In many ways, it reminded us of how we view a cherished memory: each one is precious and self-contained, but also filled with many thoughts and emotions that manifest at different times.” - Chris and Rosina Reid of Three Degrees Creative, Artists

“It is privilege to be able to work with the Royal Canadian Mint and bring to life another collector coin with a Forevermark Black Label diamond. Each diamond is carefully handcrafted and polished to maximize the brilliance of every facet. The continued collaboration between Crossworks Manufacturing and the Royal Canadian Mint has led to another true masterpiece—a coin that is not only one of a kind, but a true work of art that features the most beautiful, rare and responsibly sourced diamond.” - Itay Ariel, HRA Group/Crossworks Manufacturing

“Sculpting this coin was like putting together a puzzle, and the hardest part was getting the edges of all the angled planes to line up. Looking at the master tooling, I’m quite pleased with the way the facets catch the light as you move it around, and I hope collectors enjoy that same element on their coin.” - Samantha Strath, 3D Artist/Engraver

DID YOU KNOW?

• While oval-shaped diamonds have existed for centuries, the oval diamond cut was only developed in the mid-20th century. Many consider its elongated form to represent the longevity of a relationship.

PACKAGING
