Engagement rings, made around the stone.
A diamond found privately and graded independently, a setting designed for it, and a private viewing in London. Discreet from the first conversation to the question.
Rings available now
Finished rings we can offer at the moment, each with its report. Most of the rings we make start from a stone instead.
No finished rings are listed at the moment. Tell us what you have in mind and we will start from the stone.
What we look after
The stone
Where most of the budget goes. We show you how cut, colour, clarity and carat weight trade against one another, so the money goes where it will be seen.
The setting
A solitaire, a halo, three stones or a design of your own, in platinum or gold, made by a workshop we trust and fitted to the stone.
Discretion
We contact you only in the way you choose. Your plans stay between you and us until the question has been asked.
How it works
-
A private conversation
The shape you have in mind, a budget, your timing, and anything you know about your partner’s taste.
-
Stones, with their reports
We find stones that fit the brief, each with its grading report, and explain plainly what separates them.
-
The setting, drawn for the stone
Metal, profile and band chosen to suit the stone and the hand, then made to the design you approve.
-
See it, then ask
View the stones or the finished ring privately in London, by appointment. The ring comes with its report.
Choosing a shape
The shape sets the character of the ring before anything else is decided.
-
Round brilliant
The most light and sparkle of any cut, and the classic choice.
-
Oval
Brilliant like a round, but longer, so it looks larger for its weight and lengthens the finger.
-
Pear
Rounded at one end, pointed at the other, usually worn with the point towards the fingertip.
-
Cushion
A square with softened corners and large facets; a gentler, older look.
-
Emerald cut
Long parallel facets like steps. Less sparkle, more clarity: every inclusion shows, so the grade matters.
-
Radiant
The outline of an emerald cut with the brilliance of a round.
Questions
How do we start?
Tell us the shape you have in mind, a budget and when you hope to ask. We come back with stones that fit, each with its grading report, and a view on the setting.
Can it stay a surprise?
Yes. Tell us how and when to contact you, and we will keep to it. Nothing about your enquiry is shared beyond what making the ring requires.
How do I find the ring size without asking?
Borrow a ring your partner wears on the ring finger and bring it, or draw around its inside edge. Most solitaire and halo settings can be resized after the proposal, so a close estimate is enough. Bands set with stones all the way round are harder to resize; we will tell you if yours is one.
Which certificates come with the diamond?
A grading report from GIA or an equivalent independent laboratory. It describes the stone exactly, and it stays with the ring.
Can I see the stones before deciding?
Yes. Stones and finished rings can be seen privately in London, by appointment. Ask for a viewing when you enquire.
How long does it take?
That depends on the stone and the design. Tell us your date when you enquire, and we will say plainly what is possible before you commit to anything.
