- Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the custom ring process take?
From final design approval, please allow approximately 30 days for our artisans to carefully handcraft your ring.
What is the typical price for your custom rings?
Most of our custom ring designs fall within the $200 - $400 range, offering accessible personalization with quality materials.
Is an opal durable enough for frequent wear?
Opals require extra care as they are softer than gems like diamonds. With protective settings (which we recommend and use) and mindful handling (avoiding impacts, chemicals, extremes), they can be worn regularly but may not suit very active lifestyles without precautions.
How should I care for my Opal or Turquoise ring?
Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Store it separately to avoid scratches. Avoid harsh chemicals, lotions, and extreme temperatures/humidity. Remove during strenuous activities.
Can I combine multiple birthstones or other stones?
Yes! Combining stones is a great way to personalize family rings or represent loved ones. We can design settings within the typical scope to accommodate multiple gems beautifully.
