FAQ
How does the design process work?
Once you've decided to move forward, a deposit secures your project and allows us to begin designing your ring. You'll receive sketches, renders and a 3D CAD model for approval before the ring is made.
Two rounds of design revisions are included, giving us the opportunity to refine the details and make sure everything feels just right before production begins.
Can I add additional stones or other custom details?
Absolutely. Additional gemstones, hidden stones, engraving, custom settings and other design details can often be incorporated into your ring. If you have a specific idea in mind, let me know and I'll tell you what's possible.
Every design is unique, so the best approach is to share your ideas during the design process and we'll explore the options together.
Does my ring need to feature mountain terrain?
Not at all. While many clients choose to incorporate mountain terrain, it's just one way to tell a story through a ring.
The most important thing is creating something that feels meaningful to you. That might be inspired by a favourite mountain, a shared adventure, a beloved dog, a favourite flower, a landscape, the ocean, or another place or memory that holds significance.
I specialise in creating personal, non-traditional rings with a story behind them. Together we'll explore ideas and create something that feels uniquely yours.
Can you make a ring from any mountain in the world?
Yes - if the topography data exists, I can use it. Most mountains worldwide are covered. If you're not sure about your mountain, just ask.
How much do custom rings cost?
Bands start from $2300+ and engagement rings start from $3200+. Final pricing depends on the design, metal + weight, gemstones and level of customization. You'll receive a quote before any work begins.
Why do you only take a limited number of clients?
These rings are highly personalized and involve a lot of collaboration, stone sourcing, design work and refinement behind the scenes.
Limiting the number of custom projects allows me to give each ring the level of attention and thoughtfulness it deserves, while keeping the process enjoyable and manageable for both of us.
It also means I can stay creatively involved in every part of the design process rather than rushing projects through.
Do you make matching wedding bands to go with an engagement ring?
Yes - designing a matching band at the same time as the engagement ring is a great idea as it ensures they sit perfectly together. We can even create a contour mountain band to fit perfectly with your engagement ring. We can make men's bands, too.
What metals and stones are available?
Engagement rings are made in 10k, 14k or 18k gold, or platinum, available in yellow or white. Stones are sourced to suit your design and budget. Learn more about choosing stones
How long does the process take?
Custom rings typically take 6-12 weeks from design approval to delivery. Stone sourcing and cutting can add extra time, so if you have a deadline or proposal date in mind, mention it in your enquiry and I'll let you know if it's achievable.
What if I don't know exactly what I want yet?
That's completely fine - most people don't. Fill out the form with what you do know and we'll figure out the rest together.
Can the design be kept secret for a proposal?
Absolutely. Just let me know and I'll keep everything completely discreet.
Do you ship to the United States?
Yes. Prices are shown in CAD with approximate USD equivalents for reference. Please note that customs charges or import duties may apply for US orders - these are the responsibility of the buyer.
What if the ring needs resizing after delivery?
I recommend getting your ring size professionally measured before we finalise the design. Resizing rings can cause weakness in the band, so it's worth getting it right first time.
What Can Be Customized?
• Your chosen mountain range or meaningful place
• Gemstones
• Yellow gold, white gold or platinum
• Engraving
• Fitted contour bands
• His & hers wedding bands
• Low profile or statement settings
• Lifestyle-focused details for comfort & durability
