Bespoke Engagement Rings

"For me, the most meaningful jewellery has always been deeply personal. Every engagement ring begins with a story and my role is to create something that feels authentic to the person who will wear it."

The Art of Individuality

Each engagement ring is designed in Edinburgh and handcrafted in Scotland; shaped through close collaboration and careful attention to detail.


We regularly work with clients both locally and internationally, guiding each commission from first idea through to the finished piece.


Commissions typically begin around £10,000, depending on the gemstone, with a minimum of £8,000.


International clients welcome.

Colour has long defined our engagement ring commissions.

We work exclusively with natural gemstones, including sapphires, rubies and emeralds, but also more unusual stones - many of which are rarely seen in traditional jewellers.

Please note, we do not work with lab-created gemstones.

We specialise in responsibly sourced natural diamonds, focusing on more unusual colours and shapes including old-cut and antique stones chosen for character over perfection.

Personalisation goes beyond design - it’s the finer details that make your ring completely unique.

Not only is their beauty to be found in the architecture of the piece, it’s also an opportunity to include beautiful engraving, a hidden gemstone or some subtle personal touches.

Jewellery occupies a unique place in our lives.

It gathers memories and meaning over time, often becoming one of the few possessions passed from one generation to the next.


An engagement ring may begin with a proposal, but the story rarely ends there. Every commission is carefully designed to be worn, loved and treasured for generations.

Moments

Every engagement ring begins with a proposal, but its story rarely ends there.

Moira and her team are truly phenomenal! They designed my engagement ring from start to finish, thoughtfully considering the design of my future wedding band. When we first went to her studio, I didn't even know what I wanted. She guided me through the process and designed the most beautiful ring that holds so much sentimentality for me – it's incredibly special.
