Buying Checklist

Budget

Start by deciding on a budget that feels right for you. This will help guide your choices and make it easier to explore designs confidently. There’s a beautiful ring to suit every budget.

Style

Think about your partner’s personal taste. Do they lean towards classic and timeless designs, or something more modern or unique? Consider the diamond shape and setting that best reflects their style.

Metal

Has your partner hinted at what metal they prefer? Take note of what jewellery they wear day to day — whether it’s yellow gold, white gold, platinum, or rose gold. Their current choices often reveal their favourite tone. 

Ring size

All our rings include complimentary resizing. It’s ideal if you can find out their size beforehand, but don’t worry if not — we can easily adjust it after the proposal. 

Final Tips

What to expect

Aftercare & lifetime service

Something you can do

If sizing is needed, it takes 1-2 weeks. 

Bespoke items take 4-6 weeks. 

If you’re planning a proposal for a specific date or trip, let us know — we’ll always do our best to meet it.

Something you can do

Take photos of your partner’s jewellery to help us narrow down their style.
If you’re unsure on size, bringing a ring they already wear on the correct finger can be a great clue.
