Do you have an unusual shaped engagement ring and are struggling to find the perfect fit? You’ll want to consider our shape to fit service! By choosing a shape to fit wedding ring, we can ensure the perfect match so that your engagement and wedding ring will forever complement one another.
When it comes to choosing a shape to fit band, there are two options available for you.
The first is ordering one from our sample boxes. Some of the more popular shaped rings are available to view, try on and order in store. You may be thinking that by choosing a shape to fit ring you’ll be limited on choice. This is simply not true. Like all of our other rings, these rings are available in a variety of metal types, widths, finishes and with or without diamonds.
Some of our standard shape to fit rings are shown below, these are perfect for twist set engagement rings and shaped diamonds. Shape to fit rings have the following profile choice. Different profiles will suit different ring styles better. For example, curved will fit more of a twist engagement ring whereas a cutaway or wishbone would be more suitable for a diamond cluster engagement ring. Some of these rings can also be tweaked slightly so if your ring was almost the perfect fit, on ordering it could be made ever so slightly different to match your ring.
Our team can advise on the right shape style to suit your engagement ring.
Your other option for shape to fit is to have a ring specially designed to fit around your engagement ring perfectly. This is a great option for a more unique engagement ring whereby the ones available in store do not make a great match. For our talented suppliers to be able to ensure the perfect fit, they will need to see your engagement ring so that they can be confident of creating the perfect match. Using this service you can choose from plain, diamond set and some patterns. This service does have an additional charge on top of the cost of the ring but our team can explain this to you on the enquiry.
You might want to consider using our bespoke service to create a shape to fit engagement ring if the options available via our supplier didn’t quite make the perfect match. Many bespoke enquires are handled in store by out experienced consultants. This might be sourcing gemstones, picking a mount and making adjustments. When we are exploring a completely unique idea we have an award winning Jewellery Design team on hand to help, Ivonna Allum and Abigail Davies, who would be delighted to help craft your dream wedding ring.
