I'm not sure what design I'm after, can you help me?

What metals can you make my design in?

Katie Crompton works in 9ct gold, 18ct gold and platinum. We can mix metals too if you are after, for example, a gold band with a white metal setting. A white metal setting is particularly beautiful for diamonds as they appear to 'float' and can do all the talking without the distraction of yellow gold claws. However it is completely down to personal choice and the style you are after.

Can my bespoke jewel be engraved?

Personalisation is such a special part of the bespoke process, Katie Crompton offers complimentary engraving. 

I'm not sure about ring sizes!

Not to worry, I can help you with your ring size (and what to do to secretly find out a ring size!).
