[ENGAGEMENT RINGS]
Custom Engagement Ringsin Raleigh, NC
Designed with you at our private, appointment-only design house in downtown Raleigh, NC.
[01] Made for one person
A ring that is yours alone.
An engagement ring should feel like it could only belong to one person. At THE HOUSE OF ROYAL T, a private, appointment-only design house at 234 Fayetteville St in downtown Raleigh, we design custom engagement rings with you, from the first conversation to the finished ring. You choose a natural or lab-grown diamond, a solid gold setting in yellow, white, or rose, and the details that make the ring yours. You see the design as a CAD visualization and approve it before anything is made, and then your ring is hand-crafted. Begin with a private consultation, and bring any ideas, photos, or questions you have.

Every choice, made with you.
- 01
The center stone: natural or lab-grown
Choose a natural or lab-grown diamond for the center stone. Both are real diamonds, and we talk through the differences with you, along with the shape and size that suit your design and budget. Premium gemstones are an option too. Natural vs. lab-grown, explained
02The metal
Settings are made in solid gold, in yellow, white, or rose, and never plated. The color of the metal changes the look of the whole ring, so we compare the options together.
03The setting style
The setting decides how the center stone sits, how much of it shows, and how the ring catches light, whether that is a halo, a field of smaller stones, or something new. Comfort is part of it too: we confirm your ring size with you before production.
04A CAD design you approve
Before anything is made, you see your ring as a CAD design visualization. You review it, ask for changes, and approve it, and only then is it hand-crafted. The image here is a CAD visualization of a ring design, not a finished piece.
