ISSUE FW’26
In our new FW’26 issue, we take you to the south of France and to Renée and Jan’s wedding, which was a celebration of love, friendship and style. We also sit down with Louis Abel founder Jimmy Loutfi for an in-depth interview about how his own wedding rings marked the start of a new chapter in fine jewellery, and look ahead to New York Bridal Fashion Week for the silhouettes, details and ideas that will set the tone for the coming season.

Louise PerssonIN COLLABORATION WITH KJ Design
KJ Design was founded by goldsmith and designer Kristina Johansson – a passionate jewellery lover who never tires of creating jewellery for bridal couples and customers looking to refresh their collection or invest in a brand-new piece. For Kristina, her profession is a gift: the opportunity to create jewellery based on each customer’s personality and wishes. With over 40 years’ experience and a constantly burning curiosity, she continues to explore the world of jewellery with the same enthusiasm as when she first started.
Although no one in Kristina’s family worked as a goldsmith, it had always been her dream. “I’ve always loved art and beautiful jewellery,” she says. Although her father was initially sceptical about her career choice, she followed her passion and soon established herself as a skilled and respected goldsmith. She is a member of the Swedish National Association of Master Goldsmiths, where every member must have two sponsors who vouch for their professional skill and competence.
A wedding ring should be both beautiful and durable, says Kristina. She often recommends red or white gold, or platinum – metals that can withstand being set with gemstones and which can easily be remelted or reworked. For those who love a little extra sparkle, she encourages them to go for it, as overly practical choices can sometimes lead to regret later on. For the best fit, she advises customers to always visit the goldsmith who will be crafting the ring.
Kristina also recommends matching wedding and engagement rings. A more elaborate engagement ring can be complemented by a simpler, yet stylistically matching, wedding ring. The most important thing is that the customer feels completely satisfied with their choice.
Her advice is to set a well-considered budget and think for the long term. Many people choose rings that are currently in fashion, but she encourages customers to listen to their own wishes and draw on the jeweller’s experience and knowledge. For her, it is an honour to be part of creating jewellery that symbolises love and a lifelong journey together.

Gold ring
A classic gold ring with a modern twist. This design combines warm gold with a rose-toned centre stone and smaller brilliant-cut diamonds on the sides.
For those seeking unique, handcrafted jewellery of the highest quality, KJ Design is the obvious choice. With Kristina Johansson’s passion for gemstones and her ability to create personalised jewellery, every customer is guaranteed a memorable experience and a piece of jewellery that tells a story.
