Can I make my own wedding ring?


Two platinum wedding rings

Exchanging wedding rings that you designed yourselves is a lovely personal touch.


However, we certainly don’t suggest that you attempt to make your own wedding rings.



There is a trend for couples to make their own rings, but, as goldsmiths with many years of experience, we know that making jewellery isn’t as simple as it looks!


It takes years of training to make jewellery to a professional standard. - It is not something you can learn overnight!


Making even a perfectly plain wedding ring requires skill and practice.


The thought of couples with no experience at all being thrown in at the deep end with a lump of platinum or gold is quite scary!


After all, would you consider making your own wedding dress or suit?

Unless you are a seamstress or a tailor, it is highly unlikely!


Are you going to make your own wedding cake? Probably not, and we suggest you don’t consider making your own wedding rings unless you are a jeweller!


Leave it to the experts


In the same way that you might use the services of a professional dress-designer or a wedding cake-maker, you can commission a professional goldsmith to create your wedding rings.


We’ve been making bespoke wedding rings since 1985, so we have a wealth of experience in helping clients design their own rings.


Let us turn your ideas into reality! You’ll be wearing your wedding ring for the rest of your life. - It needs to be right.




Design your own wedding ring


There is no reason at all why you should not design your own ring.


We specialise in working with couples to create bespoke wedding rings that are perfect for them.


Our clients can have as much creative input as they wish in the design of their own unique rings.


We offer a free design-consultation to discuss ideas with one of our goldsmiths.


You might arrive knowing exactly what you want or you might be looking for inspiration.


It doesn’t matter.  - We’ll lead you gently through the design process, offering you all the advice you need.
