When Ben reached out about a custom ring, he knew exactly what he wanted: a simple silver band, with his children’s names, Harper, Savana, and Luca, stamped on the inside. He wanted it as a personal memoir, something he could carry with him every day to feel close to them no matter where he was. These are the kinds of pieces I love to create, a small but powerful daily connection.
Designing the Piece
We only needed a simple a consultation. I find these chats helpful, not just for getting measurements accurate but also for understanding what each client envisions. Ben’s idea was clear: a simple, chunky silver band with his children’s names stamped inside, personal yet private.
Adding the Names by Hand
The hand-stamping process is something I always get anxious about because it can so easily go wonky! But I love it, because it’s so personal. Each letter is stamped individually, so no two pieces are ever exactly the same. For Ben’s ring, I carefully stamped each name, on the inner side. This kind of piece isn’t about outward appearance as much as it is about what it holds within.
Why These Personalised Pieces Are So Meaningful
For Ben, this ring isn’t just jewellery, it’s a daily reminder of his children, something that means the world to him. I love working on pieces like these because they become more than accessories; they’re keepsakes that carry real, living memories. Whether it’s names, dates, or symbols, these details tell a story. They’re as much about the person who wears them as the hands that make them.
Thinking About Your Own Custom Piece?
If you’ve ever thought about carrying something meaningful with you each day, a custom piece might be the answer. Jewellery that’s made for you, with your story designed into it and has a unique energy to it. If you’ve got a name, phrase, or symbol in mind, let’s chat about how we can bring that idea to life. Just like Ben’s ring, these pieces have a way of becoming part of you.
