I keep it simple and personal. First, book a quick chat, where I’ll talk through what you’re looking for, answer any questions, and see if I’m the right fit for you.

From there, I’ll arrange either an in-person consultation at my York design suite or a virtual consultation, depending on what works best for you. You’ll have the chance to see real examples of my finished jewellery, explore diamond and gemstone options, and refine the design.

I always encourage people to book an in-person consultation if possible. There really isn’t anything like seeing the finished jewellery up close and picking the perfect diamond in person. The sparkle, the details, the craftsmanship, it’s something that just can’t be fully captured on a screen.

Once you’ve chosen the perfect stone and design, I’ll create a detailed sketch or CAD model for your approval. In some cases, I can also provide a wax model of your ring, allowing you to see the scale, proportions, and overall feel before it’s crafted in precious metal.

When everything is signed off, the crafting stage begins. This process typically takes 3 weeks.

When it’s ready, you can either collect it in person or have it securely shipped to you, fully insured.

Yes, and I highly recommend it. Choosing a special piece of jewellery is a big decision, and there’s no substitute for seeing the diamonds, gemstones, and craftsmanship in person.

When you book an in-person consultation at my York design suite, you’ll get to:

• See and compare loose diamonds and gemstones in real life, not just on a screen.
• Try on finished jewellery to get a feel for different styles, proportions, and settings.
• Understand the details that matter—cut quality, brilliance, and craftsmanship—so you can make a confident choice.

If you’re serious about creating something special, an in-person consultation gives you absolute clarity and confidence in your decision. If you’re not local or prefer to do everything remotely, I can provide high-resolution images, 360° videos, and a virtual consultation to guide you through the same process.

Yes, most designs can be tailored to your preferences. You can choose different metals (platinum, yellow gold, white gold, or rose gold), stone shapes, specs, band width, setting style, and even add personal touches like engraving or hidden details. Let me know what you have in mind, and we’ll create something perfect for you.

Our House Diamonds listed ensure the perfect balance of beauty, value, and quality:

• Mined Diamonds: D VS2, Exceptional Cut – Colourless, eye-clean, and cut for maximum brilliance.
  
• Lab-Grown Diamonds: D VVS2, Exceptional Cut – High-clarity, stunning sparkle, and exceptional value.

These specifications maximize brilliance without unnecessary cost. However, if you have specific preferences, I can source the perfect diamond for you.

No problem! Most people don’t. If you want, I’ll send you a ring sizer free of charge to help you get the best estimate—and your first resize is free, so there’s zero risk.

I understand that buying an engagement ring is a big investment, so I offer flexible payment options to suit you.

• 50/50 Payment Plan – Typically, I take a 50% deposit to begin crafting your ring, with the remaining balance due upon completion before delivery or collection.
• Finance & Installment Plans – I offer interest-free finance and installment options to help spread the cost.
• Custom Arrangements – If you’d like to begin the crafting process but need more time to pay after the ring is finished, I can keep it securely in my safe, fully finished and ready, until the moment is right for you.

In the unlikely event that you or your partner aren’t completely satisfied with the final ring, you have two options:

1. A Full Redesign – We’ll work together to refine the design until it’s something they truly love.
2. A Full Refund – If it’s just not the right fit, you’re not stuck with it. I want you to feel 100% confident in your decision.

With me, it’s a private, personal experience, no stuffy showrooms, no pushy salespeople, and no mass-produced designs. Every ring is crafted in-house, meaning no costly middlemen or retail markups. You’ll work one-on-one with an expert to create a ring that’s completely unique, designed around you and your partner, not a sales target.
