Please note: we do not sell the settings by themselves as they're created to order (custom) based on a loose gemstone chosen from the shop. To have a ring made, please select a loose gemstone from the shop and then a ring setting...this will equal the full cost of the ring that will be made especially for you by hand in our workshop.

Please note: we can special order many types of gemstones in a variety of shapes/sizes including: Certified lab-grown diamonds, natural diamonds, salt and pepper diamonds, natural sapphires (in a variety of colors; heated or unheated), lab-grown gems (emerald, ruby, alexandrite, sapphires in a variety of colors). We special order gemstones for approximately 90% of our custom/bespoke orders. Please contact us by email: nicole (at) knotandsplice.com or use the contact form.

This is a handmade ring that serring for a custom-made ring. The pictured ring is sold, but your ring will be made just for you. Each ring is first hand-carved in wax, cast using the ancient lost wax casting process (cast in 14K gold). The bezel setting is fully enclosed and polished, illuminating the facets within the stone. A little surprise under the setting with droplets of gold gives this ring the perfect dewy feeling of a flower on the vine. 

Bezels are a very low-maintenance setting for a daily wear ring. They're perfect for the adventurer (although for longevity of even the strongest ring, I always recommend you remove your ring before gardening, lifting weights, etc.). Heavier bezels are so strong, in fact, that in order to remove the stone, they'd have to be cut apart...aka one doesn't have to worry about prongs becoming loose or worn over time from normal daily wear.

Please note: While every effort is made to photograph the items to be an accurate representation, photography and computer monitors have limitations and differences. These images were taken with a Canon DSLR and macro lens (this shows much more detail than the eye can see). Colors and brightness may vary on different devices. I believe these pieces look so much prettier in person when held in the hand and admired by the eye (I've also been told this many times by Knot & Splice customers). I hope you're delighted when you receive your special piece.
