How much does a bespoke engagement ring cost?
Our Bespoke Experience starts from around £2000. If you have a particular budget in mind we can help tailor stone options to suit you.
How much is a solitaire engagement ring?
Single stone rings start from around £1800. Vintage solitaires may be available for less.
You can choose between natural, lab grown, or salt and pepper diamonds, adjusting size, colour, or clarity to suit your budget.
Why shouldn't I choose an Emerald or Opal engagement ring?
Emeralds and opals are softer stones and can chip easily. Engagement rings are worn daily, so it's better to choose a harder stone.
Which stones are best for engagement rings?
Choose gemstones with a Mohs hardness of 7 or above: Diamonds, Sapphire, Ruby, Tourmaline, Spinel, Moissanite or Alexandrite.
Can you re use my gemstones?
Yes, we can reuse sentimental precious stones. There is a small risk of chipping depending on how they were originally set, but stones can sometimes be re-polished or the design adjusted to suit.
Can you melt down a gold chain?
Chains contain solder on every link making them brittle when melted. Odd earrings, rings or pendants are best for melting.
Can I collect my order?
Yes. We will send you a link to book a collection appointment.
Do you repair jewellery?
We don't offer repairs, but we recommend K & E in Newcastle.
Can I visit your studio?
Our studio is not open to the public, but consultations take place in beautiful meeting spaces around the city.
How do you price up a custom made wedding or engagement ring?
The cost depends on stone selection, CAD design, 3D printing, metal casting, metal weight, setting, finishing, hallmarking, packaging and more.
We provide a starting estimate, refine this after stone selection, and finalise once the CAD design indicates the accurate metal weight.
