Bespoke Engagement Ring and Wedding Rings

Drew contacted me a year or so ago to talk about redesigning a family heirloom and turning it into the perfect engagement ring for his girlfriend. The heirloom he was given was an old, chunky white gold ring with aquamarine and he wanted to turn it into a more elegant and delicate ring. He knew his girlfriend loved filigree patterns and with her being from Hong Kong, he wanted to incorporate the lotus flower. To make this engagement ring really stand out, I designed a filigree pattern to run up to the aquamarine that had lotus leaves throughout. She was over the moon when Drew proposed on a romantic trip to Rome, so much so that only a few months later they were wed in front of their family in York.

 

They had a big wedding planned to take place in Italy which was postponed due to the pandemic but we went ahead and created their bespoke wedding rings anyway, they are after all, married!

For their wedding rings Drew knew he didn’t want something too classic and wanted to stand out so we created him a chunky platinum wedding ring with a hammered texture. And for Clara, we created a showstopping wedding ring that flows with her engagement ring so elegantly. We used diamonds and sapphire to frame her aquamarine in a wishbone shape. The sapphires we chose are of an extra fine quality, a bright blue to contrast against the ice-blue, making the aquamarine of her engagement ring stand out even more. We also incorporated the filigree pattern by having it engraved on the shank on the wedding band and if they weren’t enough beautiful details for you, we had the date of their original wedding engraved on the inside in roman numerals; so Drew can never forget their anniversary!

I enjoyed making this bridal set so much because of the personalisation and the thought that has gone into every tiny detail. The couple got so involved in the design process that it was never going to be anything but perfect.

About the Jewellery



  • The engagement ring is made in Platinum with an oval Aquamarine and diamonds set into the shoulders. We decided to use Platinum for the set because of its durability and power to last the test of time.
  • The wedding rings are also both in Platinum and Clara's wedding ring is set with round diamonds and two pear shaped sapphires.
  • This is a wonderful example of bespoke jewellery design. Not only have we redesigned an heirloom ring belonging to Drew's family but we also designed their wedding rings completely from scratch, using the engagement ring and their story as inspiration.

Testimonials

“Roseanna is a fantastic lady to deal with; she helped all the way through the process and answered all the questions I had. She is very knowledgeable in her field, and this shows with the ring she designed for me and my now fiancée. The first drawing she did was the one I fell in love with — how she managed to come up with the design so quickly from my briefing was fantastic to see. I can’t thank her enough. I would give her more than five stars if I could.”
