The latest creation is this romantic and playful proposal piece with the words engraved by hand underneath the specially cut opal heart. The letters catch the light and the message glows inside the stone. Browse the over flowing gallery of all the previous bespoke pieces here. Visit the workshop and try on the pieces in person!
Each appointment is 30mins, there is a selection of pieces in a range of sizes and stones, some one-of-a-kind pieces and experiments that don't quite make it to the website. See what sings to you on the day, it's always better to see them in person! I managed to find two perfect gold chains in a pawn shop in Dover so we're making more of the Medium and Heavy chain rings as we speak.

Each bespoke piece is designed and handmade for the client. We are interested in creating everything from engagement and wedding rings to commemorative memento-mori, re-designed family heirlooms or a divorce ring. The stranger the better. Leo's proposal in a ring. Behind the scenes of the this magical opal heart is an engraved message asking his beloved for their hand.
Every stone in this piece is a sapphire. From the deepest inky blue of the love heart shoulders, to the sparkling waters of the oval centre. The bespoke internal structure is the hidden support that makes this piece possible, with the claws coming in to finish her off. The final touch of teardrop sapphires set in yellow gold on each side just warm her slightly.

I can't sing the praises of Tessa and the Team highly enough. I bought a ring 2 years ago for my 10 year anniversary gift to my wife. At the time they were incredibly engaged, eager to help and quick to answer all questions (of which there many). The turn around time and end result was fantastic, so my wife was obviously blown away with the gift.
Scroll forward 2 years I needed to get the ring altered, so took a chance and contacted the team once more. As it had been so long, I didn't expect to get such a professional, enthusiastic and speedy response. Jutta, who handled my query, was fantastic

The first Tessa ring that caught my attention. Am so glad that I managed to land a piece from the recent relaunch. The oxidised finish and the gold nails provided such a great colour contrast. Throw in a white Akoya pearl characterised by a rose overtone. A combination so perfect that photos does no justice to it. Would highly recommend this ring to those considering. Cheers to my first Tessa ring and definitely not my last.

I ordered a ring from Tessa recently. Communication was excellent from the start...very friendly and very quick to respond. The ring that I purchased was absolutely GORGEOUS when it arrived. More than I can say. Pictures don't do it justice. I had ordered a ring from the website but Tessa said it didn't meet her high standards and actually crafted me a ring so that it would be perfect. I live in the USA and was told about this shop by a friend in Scotland. It exceeded expectation I can't say enough good things. Thank you to Tessa and her team!
