Bespoke Engagement Ring
A promise that takes shape over time
A ring designed for a specific person, for how they experience beauty, and for the promise you wish to entrust to them.
In my studio, every project begins with a guided process, where listening, proportions, gemstone selection, and technical checks converge into a personal, harmonious ring designed to last.
The initial meeting serves to clarify direction, timing, and feasibility. It does not require an immediate decision.
A ring holds more than just the moment of the proposal
The engagement ring is the visible gesture of a promise. It accompanies the moment of the proposal, but it is created to preserve its meaning over time.
For this reason, every bespoke project starts with the person who will wear it: with their style, their story, and what you wish to entrust to the material.
Two ways to design, a single promise
Every engagement ring is born from the person who will wear it and the meaning of the promise. For this reason, I distinguish between two design approaches, both developed to be bespoke. You don't need to know which to choose beforehand; the initial consultation also serves to understand this.
Bespoke engagement ring
This is the path for those who wish to define the shape, gemstone, metal, proportions, and details based on the tastes, style, and characteristics of the person who will wear the ring.
Narrative engagement ring
This is the path for those who desire an engagement ring capable of carrying a true love story, a promise, a place, or a dream, through time and generations.
How a bespoke engagement ring is made
An important ring requires a clear and transparent process. Here's what we'll do together: in our first consultation, we'll define what truly matters to you and the recipient of your ring, considering advice and alternatives.
1 - Listening and direction
We begin with the person who will receive the ring: their style, the meaning of the proposal, and whether a bespoke or narrative approach is most appropriate.
2 - Gemstone, shape and proportions
We will assess the gemstone, the materials, and the proportions of the ring, also taking into account the wearer's habits and lifestyle.
3 - Design and verification
When the project requires it, I use 3D modelling and a full-scale prototype to verify volumes, proportions and details before the ring is made.
4 - Crafting in my studio
I craft and inspect the ring myself in my workshop, from the structure and setting through to quality control and the preparation of the relevant documentation.
5 - Delivery and care
Upon delivery, you will receive guidance on caring for the ring over time and, where applicable, the relevant technical or gemmological documentation.
Every ring is born long before its creation
Every engagement ring is the meeting of desire and craftsmanship
In this short video, I explain how listening, design, and the goldsmith's gesture transform a desire into a promise destined to transcend time and generations.
Every Ring Begins Differently
The creations you find here belong to my archive of commissioned jewellery and can become a source of inspiration for a new project. They show how different tastes, gemstones, promises and stories can guide each design towards a personal and distinctive result.
Personalised engagement rings
A personalised engagement ring originates from a bespoke design tailored for the wearer. The design, shape, proportions, gemstone, metal, and details are all defined based on their style, habits, and the presence the jewellery is intended to have.
Together Forever
Geometric forms bring two different identities together in a shared composition.
Two-tone Gem
A balance of colour and simplicity centred on the distinctive character of the gemstone.
Queen
Classic references reinterpreted through proportion, detail and artisanal skill.
Narrative engagement rings
A narrative engagement ring is born from a true story. A promise, a memory, a place, a word or a symbol becomes part of the design and guides the shape of the jewel, so that its meaning can be recognised and cherished over time through generations.
Nest
The story of a house, a little girl, and an artistic style in a marriage proposal
When matter carries a story
Sometimes the starting point isn't a new design, but material that already holds a memory. A family heirloom or gemstone, after careful evaluation, can become part of the project so that the new ring preserves its original meaning without compromising the technique and durability of the jewellery itself.
Do you safeguard family gold or inherited jewels?
If you have a family heirloom, metal or gemstone, I can assess its trade-in value or its use in a new engagement ring.
Not all materials can be reused in their original condition. First, I check their condition, technical compatibility, available documentation, and consistency with the new project. When a material carries a memory, the first step is not to transform it, but to understand its value and choose how to preserve it in a new form.
A project directly overseen by me
I personally follow a defined number of bespoke engagement rings to dedicate the necessary time and attention to each project.
From the initial meeting to delivery, I will be your sole point of contact, maintaining continuity between what we imagine, what we verify, and what takes shape in my studio, whether online or in person.
Checks and guarantees before realisation
Before proceeding with the creation, I check the proportions, gemstone, structure, aesthetic appeal, and technical feasibility of the project.
When necessary, I use 3D modelling to check volumes and details. I can ship the full-scale prototype directly to your home. The jewellery can also be accompanied by the relevant technical or gemmological documentation.
When scheduled, you can personally attend the mounting of the gemstones before the release of the authenticated appraisal.
An Important Choice, Guided with Care
Those who commission a bespoke engagement ring are looking for someone who will listen carefully, work with discretion and offer clear professional guidance. Many of my verified reviews tell the stories of people who entrusted me with an important promise, from our first conversation to the moment their ring was completed.

Frequently Asked Questions about Engagement Rings
Do I need to have a clear idea before we begin?
No. The first meeting is specifically intended to clarify the direction, style, gemstone, timeframe and feasibility. You can come along with an idea, a visual reference or simply with the desire to create a bespoke ring.
Can I design an engagement ring even from a distance?
Yes. The programme can begin via video call and continue remotely, clearly and safely.
How far in advance should I start?
It depends on the complexity of the design, the gemstone and whether 3D design or a prototype is required. For a bespoke engagement ring, it is always best to begin well in advance, so that each decision can be considered with care.
Can I choose the stone myself?
Yes. We can assess together which gemstone is most suitable in terms of colour, meaning, durability, investment and coherence with the project.
Can I use a family heirloom or an inherited gem?
Yes, but it needs to be assessed first. I’ll check its condition, technical compatibility, sentimental value, any documentation, and whether it’s actually suitable for use in the new ring.
Can I see the design before it's made?
Where the project requires it, I can use 3D modelling or a physical prototype to check proportions, volumes and details before the ring is made. If you are working with me remotely, I can also send the prototype directly to your home.
What is the difference between a personalised ring and a narrative ring?
A bespoke ring begins, above all, with a shape, a stone or a style to be defined. A narrative ring, on the other hand, begins with a story, a symbol or a personal meaning to be embodied in the piece of jewellery.
Figuring out which ring might actually be hers is the very start of the project
Before the gemstone, the design and the metal, there is a person to understand, and a promise that needs to be transformed into a piece of jewellery.
During our first meeting, I’ll listen to what you’d like to achieve, assess the most suitable direction for the project and guide you through the initial decisions, even when the starting point is still just a vague idea or a hunch.
The first meeting is introductory and doesn't require an immediate decision.
