There are several kinds of engraving - text and design. Engraving prices are based on the amount of work, which is determined by item shape, size and design. We can put text or symbols on your item with engraving, or we can use engraving to add to the design. We also have our new SCRATCH! line which allows you to add free-hand etching like scars, letters, holes, stitches or other freehand designs. The best way is to get in touch with us sales@deadringerjewelry.com and discuss your ideas.

Unfortunately no. We aspire to produce the very highest quality jewelry possible, so use only newly refined metals in all our work.

In short, no. This is because of the stolen jewelry trade. We cannot accept jewelry for smelting or gems for resetting because there are too many people looking to convert stolen jewelry into untraceable items. Sorry, please do not ask.

Generally yes, although some would be just too heavy to be practical if completely solid. All styles have images showing the interior of the ring for clarification, and we can always ‘solidify’ a style if you prefer that extra weight.

Yes, we regularly work 10k, 14k & 18k in both yellow and white gold, and can work in platinum if you prefer. Please provide us with your finger size so we can accurately assess the metal content/weight of your ring.

We work only in genuine natural gemstones and precious metals. We may work alternative materials in future and this will be clearly stated when any new product is introduced.

Shadow finish is a combination of a textured surface and oxidisation to give a uniform matt black finish.

Shadow finish will wear over time, and this is intended. The textured surface will largely retain its integrity creating a bone-like appearance as the natural burnishing of the surface occurs. This will result in a very similar appearance to our Industrial finish, which is essentially the same burnishing process applied in the workshop, rather than by natural wear.

The Industrial finish starts out as a Shadow finish which is subjected to a burnishing process in the workshop. This is essentially the same process that will occur naturally as your ring is worn.

Your jewelry will be shipped in a small wooden crate unless a coffin is specified for a specific style. Generally coffins are reserved for jewelry valued at US$800 and over, but it’s no problem to supply a coffin with artwork for an additional charge. Please contact us with the specifics of your design for estimation!

Because our rings are customized to your size, we do require that you confirm your size at the time of ordering. Sometimes, as is the nature of rings bought on the internet, they may require an adjustment by us and we are happy to do this. We recommend all customers confirm their ring size with a professional jeweler in your town before ordering. We will also send you a photo of your item before shipping. If for any reason the item is damaged in shipping, we will, of course, take all steps to make good. Generally, the only reason a customer returns an item is to have it cleaned and serviced, or resized due to weight-loss or gain.
