What Is a Custom Wedding or Engagement Ring?

A custom wedding or engagement ring is designed specifically for the person who will wear it rather than selected from a pre-made setting. The process allows couples to choose the metal, stone, proportions and design details before the ring is created.

Flexible Stone Sourcing

Stones are sourced through trusted suppliers and can include genuine diamonds, lab-grown diamonds, sapphires, moissanite and other coloured gemstones.

Redesign Options

Existing jewellery can often be reused in a new ring design, allowing meaningful materials to remain part of the finished piece.

Design Previews

Detailed CAD renderings allow couples to review proportions and details before the ring is produced.

Ongoing Care

Cleaning, polishing and resizing services can be completed at the Ajax studio to keep rings looking their best over time.

The Custom Ring Design Process

Designing a custom ring happens through a collaborative process that allows couples to refine details before the ring is created.

1. Consultation: Meet in the studio or connect virtually to discuss inspiration, lifestyle needs and budget.
2. Design Development: Sketches and CAD previews are created while stones are sourced and options are reviewed.
3. Production: Once the design is approved, the ring is produced using the selected metal and stones.
4. Fitting and Delivery: The ring is finished, bpolished and sized before delivery.
5. Aftercare: Cleaning, resizing and maintenance can be handled through the studio.

Wedding Bands and Matching Sets

Wedding bands can be designed to complement an engagement ring or stand on their own depending on the couple’s preferences.

Options include:

• Classic gold or platinum bands
  
• Contoured bands designed to fit engagement rings
• Diamond or gemstone bands
• Stacking bands

Both partners can design rings that reflect their personal style.

Engraving for Wedding Rings

Wedding bands can be engraved with meaningful details such as:

• Wedding dates
• Initials or short messages
• Handwritten notes
• Coordinates of special locations

Engraving can be added during the design process or completed afterward for existing rings.
