This hand forged platinum and ruby Overlap engagement ring is only the second we've ever made in this new design. This engagement ring design is a progression from our earlier forged rings, which taper and wrap around the finger in a similar way.

To make our Overlap rings we hand-forge precious metal bar; hammering it carefully to change its shape. By working the metal methodically we can taper, flatten and form the metal. The forged platinum and ruby engagement ring began as a piece of square platinum bar, and has been hammered to create a gradual taper. It wraps around the finger and is finished with a princess cut ruby set into the larger end.
The simplicity of the brushed platinum form and unusual placement of the stone give this distinctive engagement ring an edge.
