Custom Celtic Rings — How Does It All Work?

Custom Celtic Rings — How Does It All Work?

Our custom "Frame Rings" are created by hand-fabricating decorative and symbolic elements — filigree, granulation, carvings, and castings with gemstones. Yellow, white, and rose gold combined with a deep selection of gemstones offer endless possibilities. Whether you want something we have in stock, a variation on a previous design, or a completely original creation, here is how it works.

Option 1: Have It Now

The custom rings shown on our website are ones we currently have finished and in stock. Within each listing you will find the size available and whether the ring can be sized. We carry a variety of styles — from gorgeous cocktail rings to unique and dainty engagement rings. These are ready to ship directly to you.

Option 2: Get It Customized

Have you seen one of our previous rings but wished it came in a different color gold or was set with a different stone? We can do that. The beauty of our custom Celtic rings is that they are all one of a kind — a new one can be handmade just for you.

Throughout the process we will work with you to decide what elements, symbols, colors, proportions, and dimensions of a previous ring you love, and which ones you would like to change. Our ultimate goal is for you to have your perfect ring. If there is a certain stone or color you are looking for, let us know — we have a wonderful selection of unique gemstones and diamonds to choose from, including stones from Peter Torraca, whose focus is on providing one-of-a-kind fine colored gemstones suitable for high-quality jewelry.

Option 3: Design Something Entirely New

Is your dream ring something you have not quite seen yet? Work directly with our designers to create the ring you have been imagining. We will explore elements from previous rings together — what you love, what you would change — and from there build something that is uniquely yours. These rings can be as simple or as extravagant as you wish.

Materials & Gemstones

Every custom ring begins with your choice of yellow, white, or rose gold (10K or 14K). From there, the possibilities expand: Celtic knotwork, filigree, granulation, and symbolic carvings can be combined with diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, garnets, and dozens of other fine gemstones. If you have a family stone or heirloom gold you would like to incorporate, we also offer a Re-Use Your Gold service.

    I am interested in a ring you have pictured on your custom page. It is an amethyst sitting on top of a group. Can you please tell me the price and how to work out the size.
    Thankyou
