The Art of Custom Creation: The Fascinating Journey of Engagement Rings
Welcome to the enchanted world of CAPUCINE H, where each bespoke engagement ring is a work of art designed exclusively to capture the unique radiance of your love, while reflecting my commitment to ethical jewelry. Choosing an engagement ring is a moment to be treasured. That's why I'm here to help you choose and create a piece of jewelry that reflects the passion and devotion you feel for your loved one.
Please note: it can take between 6 and 10 weeks to create a made-to-measure ring.
A personal consultation: the first step towards a unique piece of jewelry
The process begins with a face-to-face meeting, in Paris or via videoconference, where I get to know you and seek to understand your love story, style, preferences and budget.
Every detail counts, because my aim is to transform your dreams into a bespoke engagement ring that will transcend fleeting trends to become a timeless heirloom. Whether it's a surprise proposal or you're coming as a couple, I'll do my best to capture the energy of your relationship and bring it to life in your precious ring.
Sketching and design: bringing your ideas to life
Once we've captured the essence of your vision, I'll start sketching personalized concepts. These can be based on designs from my collections that you love, or completely new creations created just for you. These detailed sketches serve as the canvas for your unique engagement ring. You're encouraged to give your input every step of the way, ensuring that every detail meets your expectations.
The choice of gemstones: magical sparkle without ethical compromise
Gemstone selection is a crucial step in creating an engagement ring. Depending on your preferences, I present you with a selection from my collection of diamonds and gemstones, or call on my gemologists. Of course, it's also possible to cut a custom gemstone to your specifications.
All stones are ethically and responsibly sourced, guaranteeing their traceability. For diamonds, I favor antique diamonds (salvaged from old jewelry, these diamonds have incredible charm and are, in my opinion, the most responsible choice), but I'm always ready to listen if your heart is set on another source.
It's also possible to entrust me with jewelry and stones you've inherited from your family, with the aim of transforming and reusing them to give them a second life.
Precious metal: the structure of elegance with an environmental conscience
The choice of metal is just as important as the choice of stones. I use exclusively recycled gold, underlining my commitment to sustainability and environmental preservation. Each piece is thus imbued with a vibrant ethic, testifying to my responsibility as a jewelry designer.
Handcrafted creations: where magic takes shape
The moment you've been waiting for arrives when our master craftsmen bring your bespoke engagement ring to life. Sculpting the wax, soldering the setting, polishing the metal, setting the stones: each step is carried out with meticulous precision, resulting in a piece that transcends simple jewelry to become a timeless work of art, fashioned with respect for people and the planet.
Numerous craftsmen are involved in this creation, including founders, jewelers, setters, engravers and polishers, all based in Paris.
During this process, we organize (when possible) a fitting of the ring to make sure it fits the finger, and to show the chosen stone(s).
Presentation and delivery: the emotion of the moment
The final step in our journey is the presentation of your bespoke engagement ring. Every carefully honed detail is revealed, creating a moment of pure emotion. Your ring is then handed over in an elegant case, ready to seal your commitment and be passed down from generation to generation, carrying with it the story of your love.
At CAPUCINE H, I believe that every love story deserves to be celebrated in a unique way. With my commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and ethical jewelry, I'm honored to create custom engagement rings that embody the eternal beauty of your love. It's a trust that fills me with joy, and I'm ready to do my utmost to fulfill it!
Because every love deserves a ring as exceptional as the one that wears it.
