Custom Yellow Sapphire Ring

Let us build your ethical dream ring! 

Now the design...

Select your fave sapphire from our gemstone vault, to build your custom dream ring.

This dream is yours to design. Over to you now. 

Sapphire settings:

• Classic bezel setting with gold all the way around the stone
• Open bezel setting, which goes around the girdle (edges) of the sapphire, but exposes the culet (the bottom) of the stone
• Prongs
  • Prongs only; The prongs rise up from the base of the ring, without any additional support or security.
  • Wire basket prongs; The prongs rise up from the base of the ring, with a thin wire around halfway at the pavillion (underside) of the stone for extra support.
  • Basket prongs; The prongs rise up from a base or 'basket' into which the gemstone or diamond is set. This offers more security, but can look bulkier than prongs only, especially when the stone has a higher profile.

Number of prongs:

• 4 prongs compass, positioned North, East, South and West
• 4 prongs in the corners
• 5 prongs (recommended only for stones over 5 mm)
• 6 prongs (recommended only for stones over 5 mm)

Our white gold is rhodium plated, and the rhodium plating tends to wear off over time. It wears off faster around the areas that get most wear, in this case, the prongs. So white gold prongs need more care and maintenance than a white gold bezel, or than yellow or rose gold prongs.

If you choose an irregular shaped sapphire, we can send you sketches to see some prong placement options, and you can request to position the stone horizontal or vertical.

Band shape:

• Half round band, flat on the inside and rounded on the outside, for a comfortable fit. Around 1.6 mm wide. Can be engraved. 
• Round band, this band tends to spin more and is not recommend if your knuckles are wider than the part of your finger where the ring sits. Around 1.2 mm wide. No engraving possible. 

Additional small stones in the band:

• Plain band, no additional diamonds
• Small sparkling white Canadian diamonds (G-H color, SI clarity) - you choose how many
• Small salt and pepper diamonds (you choose how many)

Additional stones on the side with bezel or 3-prong setting:

• Salt and pepper diamonds around 2.5 mm
• Purplish blue Yogo sapphires from Montana, around 2-2.5 mm

The final price will be automatically adjusted depending on the stones and design you choose.

Engraving is on us!

We offer complimentary hand engraving up to 24 characters on the inside of your gold sapphire ring to personalize it even more. This is only possible for half round bands, as the round bands are too dainty, and can be selected in the dropdown menu.
