David Law
Engagement Ring Designer
As a bespoke engagement ring designer-maker, my job is to interpret my client's ideas and develop them into a series of design concepts and wax ring models before handcrafting the chosen ring in my London's Hatton Garden workshop.
DESIGN YOUR OWN
WHAT IS A BESPOKE ENGAGEMENT RING ?

There is nothing more romantic than presenting your loved one with a ring that can't be found or seen on anyone else's finger and that you have helped to design.

Once I have a clear idea of the style of rings you would like to see I will set about in my design studio, creating a series of six one-offs, engagement ring designs for you to view and admire in stunning and realistic 3D.

ADDING COLOUR
GEMSTONE ENGAGEMENT RINGS
White and natural coloured diamonds will always occupy a special place in the world of the engagement ring. The modern woman is feeling much more adventurous. Some for ethical reason are choosing lab-grown diamonds or moissanite. But the most significant increase is in gemstone engagement rings.
The hardest gemstone and the most popular is the Sapphires that come not just in blue but in an array of stunning colours yellow, purple, pink orange and green, followed by the ruby. But there are many more stunning gemstones that I can propose to you for your consideration.

Although I have worked to very tight schedules, typically a bespoke engagement ring takes from design to handcrafting about three to four weeks.
