The anatomy of a solitaire

The Signature
The Aurelia Solitaire — from $6,400
The idea

We don't just set stones.
We compose them.

Every Aurelia solitaire is built part by part — a hand-cut diamond, a setting raised to catch the light, four claws bent to hold without hiding, and a band forged in solid gold. Watch it come apart, and you see the craft you're paying for.

The Anatomy

Four parts, one ring.

A finished Aurelia solitaire ring

Nothing is set by accident. Each part is cut, raised and placed by hand — so a ring meant to last a lifetime is built like it.

01
The stoneA brilliant-cut diamond, graded for fire and clarity — the ring's whole reason.
02
The settingThe head that cradles the stone and lifts it clear, so light can pass right through.
03
The prongsFour claws, hand-bent to hold the diamond secure without ever hiding it.
04
The bandThe shank — forged in solid 18k gold and sized precisely to you.
The Bespoke Commission

Made for one person. Once.

Most of what leaves our bench never repeats. Bring a stone, an heirloom, or just an idea — and we design and hand-build a piece that exists only for you.

01

The conversation

Sit with a designer — in the atelier or over video. Bring references, a budget, the story behind the piece.

02

The design

We sketch it, then render it in 3D. Every proportion refined until it's exactly right — before a gram of gold is cut.

03

The bench

A master jeweller hand-cuts, sets and finishes it. Four to six weeks, start to hallmark.

04

Delivered with GIA papers and an insurance valuation — then cleaned, checked and resized for life, free.

Sample reviewsillustrative — Aurelia is a fictional house; names and quotes are invented

He proposed with a ring that existed nowhere else on earth. Watching it come together was half the magic.

Priya & James · Engagement

They reset my grandmother's diamond into something I actually wear every day. I still can't stop looking at it.
