For lovers of white metal, you might want to consider Palladium. It has the durability of platinum for less than the price of white gold, and unlike white gold, it does not need rhodium plating - making it very low maintenance jewellery. We can handmake jewellery in Palladium or you can choose from an extensive range of premade pieces.
We are now offering gemstones from Ruby Fair http://www.rubyfair.com, feel free to check them out for yourself. If you choose to buy direct, tell them we sent you:

Not sure which metal to choose? Try looking here.
It must be noted that handmaking creates a small amount of 'wastage' due to filing, carving and other processes used to shape the ring and ensure that the stones fit securely. Therefore it is necessary to purchase slightly more (10 - 20% depending on the design) metal than required for the finished piece. Less malleable metals such as Platinum and Palladium may generate slightly more wastage, you will be advised during the discussion of your design.
