The Design Journey
Step One
Whatever the occasion and inspiration, your journey begins by meeting Antonia for a chat to share your initial ideas and unique Story.
Step Two
Based on your vision, Antonia will then prepare a visual moodboard of design concepts and suggested stone options, along with relevant costings for your approval.
Step Three
Having chosen a design direction, the next step is to select the perfect stones for your piece. We only source our stones from trusted suppliers.
Once you have chosen your stones you will work closely with Antonia to create the perfect, hand drawn 2D design. Our team will then produce a 3D render of the final piece for your approval.
Step Five
The final stage of the journey is the casting and hand-setting of your piece in your chosen metal by our talented Goldsmiths in our Melton Mowbray workshop.
Engagement Rings
We understand that your Engagement Ring isn't just a symbol of love; it's a testament to the chapters that have led you to this moment. Antonia takes pride in delving into your narrative, capturing the essence of your relationship and translating it into a bespoke masterpiece that is uniquely yours.
Our Engagement Rings are a celebration of individuality – from classic designs with a modern twist to avant-garde creations that push the boundaries of tradition. Each piece is meticulously crafted to resonate with your distinct Story, ensuring that the ring on your finger is as exceptional as the love it symbolises.

“Honestly so so so thrilled with it!!...Thank you so much for all your help with this, it’s honestly been such a dream of an experience with your guidance (and patience!)

“I contacted Antonia when it became apparent that my engagement ring no longer fitted me and further enlargement would damage the structure. She assisted me with the decisions every step of the way and everything was always on schedule. Needless to say I absolutely love the end result and couldn’t recommend Antonia and her team highly enough.
”
“Antonia’s talents in jewellery design have given me an absolute showstopper of a ring! I would definitely recommend consulting with Antonia for a unique piece of jewellery that has the personal touch. The first time I have taken this approach and it won’t be the last!
