18ct Yellow Gold Sandcast Engagement Ring with Heirloom Diamonds & Sapphires

Our lovely customer had a beautiful collection of heirloom jewellery they wished to rework into a bespoke engagement ring commission, imbued with both sentiment and personality.

We worked closely together, through a series of workshop visits, to realise their vision for a stunning engagement ring and gorgeous reimagined heirloom. For extensive details on the process and possibilities of revitalising heirloom materials, please see our journal post. We have also compiled an informative post on the overall process of commissioning a piece of jewellery, which we hope is illuminating.

Our customer felt inspired by designs across our Sandcast Collection, initially being inspired by the contrast of diamonds & sapphires in our Porthminster - Sandcast 0.75ct Montana Sapphire & Diamond Ring. They also felt very drawn towards the organic and chunky bezel setting of our Vintage Mine Cut Diamond Ring in Sandcast 22ct Gold, loving how the sandcast bezel frames and showcases the central diamond while allowing plenty of space for additional gemstones to sparkle on the shank of the ring.

We love how the deep blue heirloom sapphires compliment the rich orange tones of 18ct yellow gold, while also contrastingly beautifully with the clarity of the diamonds. A soft antique polish finish also highlights the sandcast texture and glittery facets of the gemstones. For detailed information on the colours & carats of the precious metals that we work with, as well as the various finishes we offer, please do read our journal post.
