A wedding ring is one of the most significant pieces of jewellery you'll ever own. But if you've been searching for the perfect one(s), you've likely run into two frustrations…
Generic Designs
Walk into any jewellery shop, and you’ll see the same factory-made rings, generic, mass-produced, and lacking meaning. They’re not special or unique, anyone can have one.
Won’t Sit Right
Most bands aren’t designed to fit seamlessly with many engagement rings, leading to gaps or a mismatched look. A truly special ring should feel like it was made to be worn together from day one.
Let Me Change that
I'm Michael,
I’m a gemologist and designer based in York, crafting wedding rings for those who expect more than off-the-shelf designs and demand perfection. Each ring is meticulously made to fit seamlessly with any engagement ring, no matter the style.
I trained with the GIA and began my career as Head Diamond Buyer and designer for one of the UK’s most prestigious jewellers. I then set up my workshop in York and have created over 1,000 bespoke pieces, including for A-list celebrities. Craftsmanship, precision, and creating future heirlooms are at the heart of everything I do.
(MY THREE STEP PROCESS)
Step 1: Discovery
We start with a relaxed, no-pressure conversation about your story and vision for the perfect ring(s). This is your chance to ask anything, explore ideas, and see if we’re the right fit. No sales pitch. Just expert guidance to help you make the best decision.
Step 2: Design & Selection
Once we’ve defined your vision, I’ll help you select the perfect diamond or gemstone, if needed, and design a one-of-a-kind ring. With precision 3D design, you’ll preview every detail, and I’ll create a to-scale wax model to ensure a perfect fit next to your engagement ring
Step 3: Crafting
Once the design is finalised, your ring is handcrafted in my York workshop using the finest materials. Every detail is meticulously shaped, polished, and perfected. No mass production, no shortcuts. Just precision, care, and true British craftsmanship

(FAQs)
The cost of a custom wedding ring depends on the design, materials, and gemstones you choose. Unlike mass-produced rings, bespoke pieces are crafted specifically for you, ensuring unmatched quality and personal significance. Prices typically start from £750.
Would you like a tailored quote? Book a consultation, and I’ll guide you through the options.
No problem! We’ll start with a relaxed consultation where I’ll guide you through ideas, styles, and materials to create something that feels just right.
Traditional jewellers add multiple layers of markup, from wholesalers and distributors to high-street rent and commission-based salespeople, driving up costs. I remove the middlemen, sourcing materials at trade prices and crafting each ring in-house in my York workshop.
But it’s not just about cost, it’s about precision and craftsmanship. Unlike mass-produced rings that are simply resized, my wedding rings are fully bespoke, designed to sit seamlessly around your engagement ring with no gaps, ensuring a perfect fit and timeless elegance.
Example: A £3,000 custom diamond-set shaped wedding ring at a luxury retailer could cost £1,500 here, with a higher-quality diamond and a fully bespoke design that fits perfectly with your engagement ring. Same luxury. No unnecessary markups
Once your design is finalized, crafting takes 3 weeks from start to finish. Throughout the process, you’ll receive regular updates from our workshop, including photos and videos of your ring coming to life.
Unlike mass-produced rings that are straight or generic, my bespoke wedding rings are crafted to fit seamlessly around your engagement ring. No gaps, no mismatched fit, just perfect comfort from day one.
