Beautiful for the
life you live.

Are all these stones suitable for everyday rings?

We’ve chosen these gemstones with everyday wear in mind. Each has a hardness rating of 8 or above on the Mohs scale, which measures resistance to scratching. Durability also depends on the individual stone and its setting, so we’ll help you choose both to suit your lifestyle. To care for your ring, take it off for the gym, heavy work and when using harsh chemicals.

Are these all the gemstones you offer?

Not at all. We can source any gemstone you have in mind. The stones shown here are popular choices, selected for their beautiful hues and durability for daily wear. If you’re drawn to a different stone or shade, tell us what you love and we’ll explore the possibilities for your ring.

Natural diamond or lab-grown diamond?

Both are diamond and rate 10 Mohs, with essentially the same physical and optical properties. Natural diamonds form in the earth; lab-grown diamonds are grown in a laboratory and usually offer more size for the budget.
