Start with the hand, not the stone
Long fingers carry tall settings; working hands want a bezel or a low prong. If you wear gloves or type all day, height is the first decision, not the last.

Before you choose
How to choose a ring
Pick the stone for the life it will live
A ring worn daily needs 8 or harder on the Mohs scale: sapphire, spinel, diamond. Softer stones like opal and emerald are occasion stones, or need protective settings.
Size in the afternoon
Fingers run a half size larger by evening and in summer. We size to your afternoon measurement and resize free within two sizes.
Buy the cut, not the carat
A well-cut smaller stone reads larger and livelier than a lazy big one. This is where our money goes, and where yours should.
The short answer
Studs rings are made to commission at Made With Color: one artist, one bench, in New York. Ask and we will pull stones in daylight and send passports before you decide. The first real jewel most people own and the one they wear the most hours of their life.
About studs rings
Built around the stone first, like everything in the studio. Nothing in the studio matches this exactly today, which is what commissions are for: we will build it around the stone. We choose every stone loose, in daylight, and every work above carries a passport that says exactly what it is.
CHOOSING THE STYLE
On the style
Match the stone to the earlobe, not the outfit: 4 to 5 mm reads quiet, 6 mm noticeable, 8 mm deliberate.
Fit before beauty
Measure a ring you already own at the end of the day, when fingers run largest.
Then the look
Decide setting height first. Hands that type, garden, or lift want the stone low.
What size studs should I buy?
For daily wear, 5 to 6 mm carries color without shouting. Buy the stone a size smaller than instinct says; lobes are smaller stages than they look.
How long until it arrives?
Ready-now works leave the studio within two business days, insured and signed for. Made to order pieces state their bench time on the page, most within three to four weeks.
What if it does not suit?
Thirty days from delivery, in original condition, in the slate box. Resizing is free for life on rings, and any stone we set can be reset into a new mount as taste changes.
How do these wear?
Screw backs for stones that matter. Butterfly backs loosen; screws do not.
