Bespoke Design

You can choose the exact width and depth of your ring, and specify the individual characteristics of each surface, flat, convex, concave, with crisp corners, rounded or bevelled.

The finish can be highly polished, matte, hammer-finished, or given any texture you wish.

Shown here are a matte platinum flat-court, a polished yellow gold court, and a matte red gold court.

What do you do if one partner likes platinum and the other prefers gold, but they want "matching" wedding rings?

We made this bespoke pair of court rings so they each got the metal they wanted, but with the other metal hidden inside.

A practical finish

If your lifestyle means you are likely to damage a perfectly plain wedding ring, you could consider a finish that will disguise any marks you put into it.

With a textured finish, scuffs and dents blend into the background.

This red gold court ring has a hammered finish that's ideal for someone with a manual job.

Wedding Ring FAQs

Can I design my own wedding ring?

Absolutely! Insstead of simply picking a mass-produced wedding ring from a high-street jeweller,
speak to a bespoke jeweller about creating a unique wedding ring. This will allow you to get involved the design process.

At Aurum designer-jewellers we specialise in creating custom made wedding rings in platinum, gold, and palladium.

We offer a free design consultation at our showroom. This is an opportunity to meet one of the goldsmiths from our workshop to discuss ideas for your wedding ring.

When you opt for a bespoke wedding ring you have control over every aspect of the design.

There are lots of points to discuss, and many small decisions to be made.

If you have an engagement ring your wedding ring should be designed to complement it.

We give you all the advice you need to design a ring that is perfect for you.
Should wedding bands be plain?

Traditionally, wedding rings were plain gold bands. However, these days many people ignore tradition, and go for a wedding ring that suits their style.

At Aurum designer-jewellers, we specialise in creating bespoke wedding rings in platinum, gold, and palladium.

Many of the rings we are commissioned to make are, in fact, perfectly plain bands.
How can I commission a bespoke wedding ring?

To commission a bespoke wedding ring it is best to speak directly to a skilled goldsmith or jewellery designer.

Aurum designer-jewellers specialise in producing bespoke wedding rings. Our goldsmiths are always happy to discuss ideas.

The design process starts with a consultation at their showroom.

You’ll meet one of the goldsmiths from the on-site workshop.

Our job is to discover your exact requirements.

We’ll ask lots of questions, and from your answers we’ll gradually piece together the specifications for the wedding ring that will be perfect for you.

If you have an engagement ring we’ll need to see it and take measurements so that we can design the wedding ring in exactly the right proportions.

You’ll be offered all the advice you need to make informed choices about all aspects of the design.

There is no obligation, but if you do decide to order we’ll require a 25% deposit.

The balance is due when the ring is complete.
What is the best metal for wedding rings?

There are various things that you should consider when choosing the metal for your wedding ring. If you want a gold wedding ring you have a choice of 22ct, 18ct, and 9ct gold.

The numbers denote the number of parts of pure gold out of 24 in the alloy.

22ct gold is the purest and the softest. It has a rich colour, but it is not the best choice for anyone with a manual job or an active lifestyle.

9ct gold has only 9/24 pure gold, and contains a lot of silver and copper, resulting in a paler colour.

18ct gold is the alloy favoured by good jewellers.

With 18/24 pure gold it has an attractive yellow colour and is tough enough for everyday wear.

If you prefer a white (silvery) metal, you have more metals to choose from.

White gold is made by mixing pure gold with a white metal such as palladium. White gold has a yellowish tinge and jewellery in this metal is usually electro-plated with rhodium to make it look whiter.

Unfortunately, rhodium plating wears off quite quickly, revealing the true colour of the white gold beneath.

Platinum is the best white metal. It is very tough and hard wearing, and because it is naturally white it does not require rhodium-plating. Platinum’s density gives it a luxurious hefty feel.

There are other metals available such as Palladium and Titanium, and we are always happy to discuss metal characteristics as well as your personal preferences and lifestyle in order to help you decide which will be the best metal for your wedding ring.
