Custom Reclaimed Gold Chunky 9ct Rings with 4mm Parti Sapphires
Custom Reclaimed Gold Chunky 9ct Rings with 4mm Parti Sapphires
FOR THE PURPOSE OF THE GREEN AND RED WEEKEND SPECIAL - NEW CUSTOMS CANNOT BE ORDERED AT THE DISCOUNT - BUT YOU CAN PURCHASE THE CURRENT TRILOGY
Chunky chunky reclaimed gold and amazing natural parti sapphires.
These beauties have come about as sometimes we have bought pieces that are just beyond repair. Instead of refining them, we have used them to make these chunky bands and set them with one of our favourite stones.
Now both of these are flat profiled, one tapers its width and the other remains chunky the whole way around. Can we make them a more rounded profile - sure! That is the delight of custom - we can make them to your desire. Look at the edges of the rings and you will see that the trilogy has a polish finish and the five stone has a brushed finish - all of these things are customisable.
With reclaimed gold there is limits though - we have to have good margins of gold, we are governed by the height of the stone in the minimum depth of the ring, and they can only be made in 9ct yellow gold. But as you can see from these two rings, the colour does vary from gold to pale rosey gold - it is all about what we melt.
Prices are driven by the gold amount - these two are both over 11g of gold, the stone quantity and size, the choice of stone (we are looking at other options - but not for the next few months) and the width and size of the ring.
We have priced the two rings made (one of which was made as a custom order for an amazing customer from the start) so that you can see approximate costs - but you will need to get in touch and we can get you a quote (which you are not obliged to follow through on - we are firm believers in the choice and being governed by the heart) - that is unless the trilogy is your Cinderella slipper - as she is available right now - as she is!
So - to the trilogy for its specifics - in case she is the perfect piece for you - if not she will be happy with us!

FAQ
Sizing
What do we mean when we say a ring is "sizeable"? Well, most standard rings can be made bigger or smaller by up to three letter sizes. If we say the item is "moderately sizeable", this usually means about 1 size, and if we say it is "not sizeable" or that "sizing is not recommended" it will be due to the construction - it could be age related, pattern related, have enamel etc.
We can happily help with sizing of rings, so please do get it touch if we can give you a quote.
