ENGAGEMENT RING STARTING PRICES

We work with recycled gold (14K, 18K, yellow, rose and white) and platinum.

The price of precious metals is constantly changing and generally trending upwards.

The chosen design will determine the weight required and the global market will determine the price per gram for the selected precious metal.

9K GOLD AND STERLING SILVER:

Due to the characteristics of these metals we don't recommend them for engagement rings. This is to ensure longevity of the piece as engagement rings are intended to be worn every day. If your preference is for one of these metals we may be able to recommend a suitable design depending on your stone choice.

Diamond prices are largely dictated by the 4C's; Colour, Clarity, Cut and Carat. Each 'C' influences the price along with fluorescence and the origin of the stone. 

Precious gems also vary greatly in price depending on size, colour, clarity, quality of cut and/or treatment (heat, irradiation etc) applied.

Because there is such vast difference in pricing for diamonds and gems we can use your preferences to offer a selection of stones to choose from within your budget.

A solid design will weigh more than a delicate design. A very detailed and intricate design with multiple gems will require more labour than a classic, simple solitaire.

Both Jenna and Megan have over 20 years of experience designing jewellery so we have a wealth of knowledge available to recommend the perfect solution within your budget.

Aside from time spent consulting with you on design and the sourcing of materials there is the physical labour required to bring the piece to life!

The most simple solitaire engagement ring requires roughly eight hours of physical labour.

The more intricate the design, the more stones included and the more features such as texture and/or engraving, the more labour involved.
