Share Your Ideas
Unsure where to start? No stress. Our initial chat is all about uncovering your dream design – even if you’re not quite sure what it is yet. We’ve got a knack for teasing out your perfect ring vibe. Like ring detectives – equipped with magnifying glasses – we ask all the right questions to draw out your vision.
Gemstone First, Design Second
We’re all about the gem. So we’ll say that again – we’re all about the gem. This gemstone-first approach ensures your stone shines brightest – crafting the ring’s design to complement its glory. Why? Because we believe the gemstone is the absolute heart of your ring – like the real centrepiece. Really.
Some Of The Crucial Things We’ll Cover:
- Budget Boundaries: We'll talk numbers. Dreaming of a 1ct diamond on a $2,000 budget? We may need to tweak those dreams a bit, but we promise to always keep it real and within reach. We want expectations to align with your wallet without sacrificing splendour.
- Gold or Platinum? Whether you’re all about gold (yellow, white, rose) or leaning towards platinum, we can help you choose the metal that best complements your chosen gem and skin tone.
- Gemstone Galore: Beyond diamonds, the world of gemstones is vast and vibrant. From the deep hues of sapphires to the brilliant sparkle of moissanite, we’re here to find the gem that’s truly you.
- Shape and Size: Every detail, from the gemstone’s shape to its carat, matters. Because the right shape and size can transform a ring from beautiful to breathtaking. We'll lead you through options that flatter and fit, to find the perfect match for your finger’s real estate.
- Aesthetic Ambitions: Modern, vintage, art deco, or utterly unique - whatever your style, we’re here to translate it into a ring that’s unequivocally, undeniably you.
- Ring Size Secrets: A surprise proposal? It should be. We’ve got stealthy ways to figure out the perfect fit without giving the game away.
- Timing is Everything: Our bespoke creations take time - usually about 6-8 weeks after design approval. The full process from "Yes, let's create!" to "OMG, it's perfect!" typically spans about 3 months, but trust us, it's worth the wait - the result is forever!
- Secret Keeping: Plotting a surprise? Our lips are sealed. Post-consultation, we can move to email or discreet messages, ensuring no spoilers ruin the big moment.
- Ethics at Heart Values matter. If ethically sourced gems are your jam, we're here to ensure your ring reflects not just your love but your beliefs, too.
There you have it – the secret’s out. Our bespoke process is designed to be as individual as you are, turning the daunting into the delightful.
