Ring Design: Design Your Own Solitaire in 4 Steps

Short answer: You can design your own solitaire in four steps: choose the stone’s shape, choose its carat, choose the gold colour and decide on the stone’s quality level. In our ring designer, every choice shows how the ring will look on the same hand at true scale. You send us your design on WhatsApp with a single tap; we send you suitable real stones with their certificate details, and after your approval we make your ring in our workshop.

Step 1: The stone’s shape

The shape sets the character of the ring. The designer has eight shapes: round, oval, pear, emerald, cushion, princess, radiant and marquise. Each shape has a short description beside it; for example, oval makes the finger look long, and emerald gives a calm light. To think about which shape will suit you: diamond shapes · choosing by finger type.

Step 2: Carat

You can choose between 0.50, 1, 1.50, 2 and 3 carats. For each carat, the stone’s approximate size in millimetres is shown too. In the photos, the stone is placed in true proportion by millimetre calculation on a finger 17 mm wide. For carats in between (such as 0.70 or 1.20), just write it in your message. How many carats should a solitaire be?

Step 3: Gold colour

White, yellow or rose gold. You see at once how the same stone changes in different gold colours: white gold makes the stone look whiter, while yellow and rose gold create a warm contrast. Choosing a gold colour.

Step 4: The stone’s quality

You choose from three levels:

• Top tier: D–E colour, VVS clarity; the highest whiteness.
• Recommended: F–G colour, VS clarity; the most balanced choice, with no difference visible to the eye.
• Balanced: G–H colour, VS2–SI1 clarity; a budget-friendly choice that looks clean and white when worn.

We explain what these levels mean in our 4C guide.

A ready-made design, or my own?

If you do not want to design your own, you can see hundreds of designs made in our workshop in the model gallery; just send us the number of the design you like. You can also combine the two: choose a design from the gallery and decide its stone yourself, as in the designer.
