Please note: we do not sell the settings by themselves as they're created to order 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 this design will pair best with rounded or symmetrical stones such as round, cushion, oval, or hexagon. 

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 is completely one of a kind. We will hand carve your ring, and therefore, no two rings will ever be exactly the same. We will create with the same design in mind and intention, however placement and little variations in textures/widths will occur. 

Ring design details (please note that these will vary a bit depending on the gemstone's size (larger/thicker stones may require a thicker band and a taller setting):

• Sizing: please choose your ring size from the drop-down menus. We can create this ring in quarter, half, and whole ring sizes. We strongly recommend getting sized professionally prior to placing your order.
• Optional curved 5-diamond matching band (add-on option in the dropdown menus in this listing): photo examples of the two bands are in the listing. The Esme band has 4 leaves and bead-set 5-1.5mm diamonds (GH/SI). The rounded-arched band has 5-1.5mm flush set diamonds (GH/SI clarity or greater). Please note that your band will be carved to order to fit the shape/size of the gemstone setting and to curve around the leaves. Because this design is a bit asymmetric, the wedding band will also be more asymmetrical. Please see the example photos of the band style. Please email for other custom-fit bands and pricing: nicole [at] knotandsplice.com or use the Contact form here.
• Band width: approx. 2.26 mm (varies a bit in thickness as it's hand-carved with organic detailing)

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.
