Custom Engagement Ring Design
Designing one-of-a-kind engagement rings that tell your love story, handcrafted from first sketch to final reveal.
Design from Scratch
Every engagement ring tells a story before it's ever worn. At my Granville Island studio, I design custom engagement rings in Vancouver from the ground up — working directly with you to create a piece that reflects your relationship, not a catalogue. Whether you're starting with a stone, a shape, or just a feeling, the process is personal, collaborative, and entirely yours.

Sample Custom Engagement Rings
Step One
Consultation
We start with a conversation, in person at the studio or by appointment. I'll ask about your partner, your style, your budget, and what you want this ring to say. If you already have a gemstone or a rough idea in mind, bring it. If you're starting from nothing, that's fine too.
You can share photos of inspiration, or we can explore design possibilities together by walking through my website or the gallery collections. Together, we’ll discover the shapes, styles, and details that resonate most with you.
Step Two
Sketch
From there, I hand-sketch design concepts based on what we discussed. We'll go back and forth until the design feels right, adjusting metal, setting, and stone until it matches the vision.
Step Three
Production
Once the design is approved, I hand-craft the ring in my studio using 18k gold, palladium white gold, or your preferred metal, and ethically sourced diamonds, sapphires, or lab-grown stones.
Step Four
Reveal
It’s ready! You'll come back to the studio to see and try on the finished piece, ready to propose or celebrate.
Why Order a Custom Ring?
A custom engagement ring means no two are alike, and no compromise on what matters to you. The stone, the story, the fit. As a Vancouver-based goldsmith working from a single studio on Granville Island, I handle every stage myself, from first sketch to final polish.

Absolutely! I have a whole page for heirloom redesign, check it out here. We can melt down any pre-existing jewelry you’d like to bring, and use stones you’d like to preserve/enhance/rejuvenate.
