Design Consultation

Collaborating to find your style

For inspiration, browse our online collections, bring images of jewellery you admire or rely on our expertise. You’ll work closely with our bespoke designer Kara or head of design Talitha to establish exactly how you’d like the final piece to look. Here we pay close attention to factors such as budget, stone type, shape, size, and colour, ensuring every intricate detail is considered and perfected.

Typically lasting around 30 minutes, this session serves as an opportunity to acquaint you with the fundamentals of the 4 C’s in diamond selection, as well as other crucial diamond details. Note: this second consultation can be done via phone, Zoom or face to face.


step three

Design Review

A 3D computerised model of your special piece

After collaborating on the design, we use advanced software to generate a realistic 3D model, providing you with a comprehensive visual representation of your unique piece from different perspectives. This allows you to thoroughly evaluate the design and make any desired modifications or refinements before the production phase begins.


step four

Highly Skilled Sourcing

Sourcing the finest and most exquisite gems

With an expert eye honed by years of travelling to diamond hubs around the world, Craig possesses a wealth of expertise to handpick the most exceptional gems from the vast array available on the international market.

Ensuring both extraordinary quality and the perfect size to align with your budget, we will hand select a range of lab diamonds exclusively for you to choose from. 

All diamonds we source come with independent certification and a unique laser inscription on the girdle ensuring the stone is the one described.

  • Jewellery is more than an art form. It becomes part of our being - a symbol that sits with us and bears witness to all of our life’s events. Co-creating personalised jewellery, turning someone’s story into an exquisite piece, is a truly meaningful experience.”
