Wax Seal Rings
Traditional signet rings were used to leave an imprint in sealing wax, identifying the wearer who had "signed" a document or letter with his family seal. For this very traditional look, we recess the design into the face of the ring and mirror it, so lettering reads backwards - ensuring the imprint made in wax produces the correct coat of arms image. Others like this recessed look but have no intention of using their ring as a seal, so we create a similar look without reversing the image. For a more modern style, many prefer a sculptural, raised version of the coat of arms. This type of ring can't be used to create a seal, but it's often very eye-catching and detailed. Check out a few examples of each style for inspiration.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a project take?
Typically, your custom piece will be in your hands 2-4 weeks after we've finalized your design. However, because each project is different, the time it takes to complete your project may vary. Here's a rough breakdown of how long each part of our process takes:
Design: As long as it takes for you to tell us it's perfectWhen it comes to creating your design, we'll work at your pace. Some customers only need to exchange a few messages with us - we'll often be ready to make their piece within a few days. Others may prefer to design and iterate with us over many weeks, or even months.
Production: Approximately 2-4 weeksOnce you've approved a design, we'll manufacture your piece, finishing all the details by hand. When it's ready, we'll send you photographs of your finished piece so you can give us your seal of approval before we ship it to you.
Shipping: 1-3 days (domestic), Approximately 1 week (international)We offer free shipping! Depending on location, international shipments may be subject to additional import charges, for which you'd be responsible. International shipments can sometimes be delayed by local customs for inspection, which can extend the delivery time.
How much will my ring cost?
In general, our custom rings are the same price as similar rings off-the-shelf ('similar' meaning a comparable selection of metals and gemstones used, which are the biggest factors in price). Our aim is to make high-quality custom designs accessible to everyone.
Each ring we produce starts off as a brand new concept. Because of that, it’s difficult to know how much a piece is going to cost without knowing a bit more about the idea you have in mind.
The easiest way to figure out how much your ring will cost is to start a consultation with us and let our team know what you're looking for - we can provide an estimate with only a few details.
When do I get to see a design? Do I have to pay first?
There's no charge to discuss your design and price out options with our team. We request a deposit prior to producing 3D models and renderings of your design and that deposit goes toward the final cost of producing your piece.
Do you offer a warranty?
We stand behind our jewelry 100% and we offer a comprehensive set of warranties so that you can purchase with confidence.
Lifetime Manufacturer WarrantyWe guarantee our workmanship and take responsibility for any structural defects.
Certificate of AuthenticityAll the materials (metals, diamonds, and gemstones) we sell are authentic and properly specified in your proposal agreement.
Accent Stone Loss WarrantyIf any small accent gems (<$100 value) break or fall out of their settings in the first year after we create the ring or within a year of us performing maintenance on the ring, we’ll replace them free of charge.
