Have it made.

Six to ten weeks from the first conversation to the day you collect it. One piece at a time, designed around your stone and made at this bench.

How a commission runs

01

The brief

Forty-five minutes to an hour and a half, at the bench or on a call. What it is for, who wears it, the budget, the deadline. Most commissions take two or three conversations before the design is locked.

02

The stone

We bring you two to four stones to choose between, with the papers to match. The setting is designed around the stone’s dimensions, never the other way round.

03

The drawing

Pencil first, then a render you can turn in your hand. Half the fee falls due when you approve the design, and it is not refundable after that.

04

The wax

The ring is carved and printed in wax so you can wear it before a gram of gold is committed.

05

The bench

Cast, filed, set under the microscope. The making typically takes two to three weeks, and you are welcome to come in and watch it happen.

06

The handover

Fitted, hallmarked, boxed, with the certificate. Cleaning and a check every year after that, no charge.
