Designer Spotlight: Heath London’s “My Point of View” Wins Big at the AGTA Spectrum Awards

There are few designers who can make color feel choreographed, deliberate yet effortless. Heath London is one of them.

Her 18K yellow gold earrings, “My Point of View” just swept this year’s AGTA Spectrum Awards, taking home Best of Single Entries Spectrum and an Honorable Mention for Evening Wear. And honestly, once you see them, you understand why.'

The earrings feature fancy-cut London Blue Topaz (54.67 ctw.) accented by shield-cut Tanzanites (5.40 ctw.) and cushion-cut Tsavorite Garnets (1.45 ctw.):  a trio so saturated and electric it feels like color theory come to life. Each gem is layered with precision, almost architectural in the way it moves with light.

Every masterpiece begins as a sketch. ‘My Point of View’ took shape long before the first stone was set — guided, as always, by color.

“The site of these phenomenal London Blue Topaz began my vision,” Heath explains. “The blue inspired the other stone choices, they had to have the same saturation of color and clarity.”

Of course they did. Heath doesn’t miss when it comes to color.

“My work is a product of loving color, shapes, and making the stones central to the design, always capturing light with minimal metal,” she says. “The stones always lead.”

The making of “My Point of View” was a full circle collaboration between expert eyes and steady hands, one of those rare alignments that feels meant to be.

Color first, always. A glimpse at Heath London’s table mid-inspiration — a palette of gems that could spark a dozen new ideas before lunch.

Royal Touch brought the vivid blue violet Tanzanite.
Prima Gems USA provided the Tsavorites.
Paul Otto Cosmos sourced the London Blue Topaz.
Gregory Morin brought it all together at the bench.

And then there’s Heath, pulling it all together with that calm, confident energy only a designer who truly listens to her stones can have.

This isn’t her first win, and if history tells us anything, it won’t be her last. Heath’s relationship with the AGTA Spectrum Awards goes way back. Her “In The Swim” earrings won 3rd Place in 2015, followed by the “Rajasthani Dreams” and “Seeing Red” designs that took Honorable Mention and 2nd Place the following year. Editors at W Magazine and Gem Obsessed called her work “an artistic success” and “one of the standouts,” and they were absolutely right.

Proof that artistry speaks for itself. Heath London’s growing Spectrum collection — years of color, precision, and persistence made tangible.

Her designs have graced the covers of Santa Barbara’s Dining & Destinations and Retail Jeweler, and even walked the red carpet at the Golden Globes and Emmys, not that she’d ever brag about it. But we absolutely will.

Still, through all of it, her north star never changes. The stones lead, and she follows, turning each collaboration, each cut, each color into something that feels impossibly intentional and beautifully alive. With “My Point of View,” Heath London reminds us that when you let the gems take the lead, brilliance always finds its way.
