Client Journey

Oval Solitaire

From the first cut of gold to the final polish, each ring is crafted with care, precision, and passion. Our bespoke process transforms simple materials into elegant pieces of fine jewellery, tailored to highlight the brilliance of every stone. The result is a timeless design, made to be worn, loved, and admired for years to come.

Consultation & Design

Every bespoke piece begins with raw materials and a vision. For this design, we started with a bar of yellow gold, a hand-crafted claw setting, and a beautiful oval diamond chosen for its brilliance and balance. Before any work began, we carefully measured and marked the gold to ensure perfect proportions between the band and the setting. Each component was checked for symmetry and alignment, laying the foundation for a ring that would not only showcase the diamond but also feel beautifully balanced on the hand.

Design & Mould

Once the gold band was shaped and prepared, the next step was to join the setting. Using precise soldering techniques, we carefully attached the claw mount to the band, ensuring a strong, clean join that would provide lasting durability. The ring was then refined and adjusted, with each claw positioned to hold the diamond securely while allowing maximum light to reach the stone. Throughout this process, accuracy and craftsmanship were key — every detail contributing to the ring’s final elegance.

Finished Piece

With the structure complete, the diamond was expertly set into its claws, secured and aligned to capture the perfect angle of light. The entire ring was then polished to a high shine, revealing the warmth of the yellow gold and the brilliance of the diamond. The finished piece embodies the transformation from raw material to refined beauty — a timeless solitaire that highlights both the craftsmanship behind the process and the natural radiance of the stone itself.
