Bespoke

Made for one person

An engagement ring, an anniversary gift or a piece to mark a lifetime: designed with you by Michel Germani and made by hand.

Bespoke yellow and white diamond rings
Engagement & Bridal

The ring of a lifetime

Custom engagement rings are at the heart of the Germani house. Choose a diamond with Michel’s guidance, whether a classic round brilliant, an elegant pear or a rare coloured stone, then shape the setting and band around it.

Matching wedding bands can be designed alongside, so that the pair sits perfectly together.

The Process

From first conversation to final piece

  1. Consultation

    Meet Michel privately to talk through ideas, budget and timing. Bring inspiration, or simply a feeling.

  2. The Stone

    View a curated selection of diamonds and coloured gemstones, and learn what makes each one special.

  3. Design

    Michel prepares sketches and detailed designs, refined together until every proportion feels right.

  4. Craftsmanship

    Your piece is handcrafted, carefully set and finished, then presented to you in person.

Coloured Gemstones

Rare colour, set with care

Sapphires, emeralds, rubies and Australian black opals each call for their own approach. Calibré-cut frames, diamond halos and hand-finished mounts are designed to bring out the colour of the centre stone.

Michel can also redesign heirloom jewellery, giving treasured stones a new life.

Selecting Stones

Every stone, chosen by hand

Before a design is made, Michel selects the stones himself, comparing colour, cut and life side by side, so that each piece begins with the right gem.

Designs for Approval

Drawn before it is made

Every commission is drawn in detail before any metal is worked: each view, measurement and stone size is set out and approved with you, so the finished rings are exactly as you imagined.

Designs

Ideas on paper

Every Germani piece is designed and produced by Michel Germani, including the sketches. Pages from his design books: suites, collars and gentlemen’s rings, each worked out in colour before a stone is set.

Design Process

From sketch to suite

Ideas begin by hand. Here, a finished ruby necklace sits beside Michel’s sketches for its matching earrings, ring and bracelet, with every ruby counted out so each piece of the suite is in proportion.
