Diamond & Stone Shapes
Every diamond and gemstone shape we source and set — each with distinct visual traits, price per carat, and styling strengths.
Princess
A modern square cut with sharp corners and brilliant facets. Second most popular for engagement rings.
Oval
Elongates the finger and looks larger per carat than a round. A top-trending shape for engagement rings.
Emerald
A rectangular step-cut with clean lines — understated, elegant, and distinctly vintage Art Deco.
Cushion
A square or rectangular cut with rounded corners. Warm, vintage, and timeless — often paired with halos.
Pear
A teardrop shape that blends round brilliance with oval elongation. Flattering and distinctive.
Marquise
A football-shaped cut with pointed ends. Makes fingers appear longer and stones look larger per carat.
Radiant
A rectangular cut with cropped corners and brilliant faceting. Combines the shape of emerald with the fire of round.
Asscher
A square step-cut with cropped corners. Deeper than emerald, with a hall-of-mirrors visual effect.
Heart
The ultimate romantic shape. Best in 1.0ct+ sizes where the silhouette reads clearly.
Trillion
A bold triangular cut — often used as side stones in three-stone rings or as striking solitaires.
Baguette
A slim rectangular step-cut. Classic as side stones in three-stone and channel-set engagement rings.
Other
Old mine, rose cut, hexagon, kite, shield, or fully custom shapes — bring us anything and we'll source or cut it.
Natural vs Lab-Grown Diamonds
Both are real diamonds — same carbon, same brilliance, same hardness. The right choice depends on your goals. Here\u2019s how they compare side by side.
Natural Diamond
Mined from the earth and formed over billions of years. Holds long-term resale value, ideal for heirloom engagement rings, and carries the sentiment of rarity.
Lab-Grown Diamond
Grown under high pressure and temperature in weeks. Chemically identical to natural, with zero mining impact. Ideal when you want bigger carat size for the same budget.
| Attribute | Natural | Lab-Grown |
|---|---|---|
| Physical properties | Identical (same carbon lattice) | Identical (same carbon lattice) |
| Brilliance / fire | Identical | Identical |
| Hardness (Mohs 10) | Identical | Identical |
| Certification | GIA (standard) | IGI or GCAL (standard) |
| Price per carat | Higher (~2.5–3× lab) | Lower (40–60% of natural) |
| Resale / long-term value | Holds value better over decades | Limited secondary market |
| Ethical sourcing | Conflict-free (Kimberley + SCS) | Zero mining impact |
| Carat size per budget | Smaller for the same $ | Up to 2× larger for the same $ |
| Inclusions / character | Often unique (some love it) | Typically very clean |
| Heirloom / sentiment | Formed over billions of years | Grown in weeks under pressure |
| Best for | Engagement rings, heirloom pieces | Larger carat sizes, tennis, studs, anniversary pieces |

grayHad a perfect experience! Unmatched creativity and execution, definitely the only place to go in toronto for jewelry
Umair AlahiMy experience shopping here was excellent. They answered all my questions, worked out a price that fits my budget, & helped me choose the perfect piece and also kept in touch after the sale to make sure I was satisfied.
PadronoI've been to many shops looking for custom grillz and kept getting really high quotes. At this shop I was taken care of and the price was explained. The final product was worth way more than what I paid. By far the only place I will be going!

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of custom earrings can you make in Toronto?
Diamond studs, gold hoops, huggies, drop earrings, chandelier earrings, ear climbers, ear cuffs, threader earrings, cluster earrings, and fully custom designs — all handcrafted in our Toronto studio.
How much do custom diamond stud earrings cost in Toronto?
0.5ctw lab-grown studs start around $1,000 in 14K gold. 1ctw studs $1,500-$2,500 (lab) or $3,500-$5,000 (natural). 2ctw studs $3,000-$6,000 (lab) or $8,000-$15,000 (natural). Premium VVS clarity adds 15-25% to each tier.
Lab-grown vs natural diamond studs — which should I choose?
Lab-grown studs deliver the same brilliance and hardness for roughly 50% less — ideal if you want bigger visible size. Natural diamonds hold long-term resale value and carry heirloom sentiment. Both are real diamonds; we'll show you loose stones of each to compare.
How much do custom gold hoops cost?
Plain 10K gold hoops start around $800, 14K from $1,100, 18K from $1,500. Diamond-set pavé hoops start from $2,500. Final price scales with diameter, width, and gold weight.
Can I design matching earrings, pendant, and ring?
Yes — matching sets are a signature offering. Design your earrings alongside a pendant, ring, or bracelet for a cohesive collection. We offer set discounts when ordered together.
Do you make huggies and small everyday earrings?
Yes — huggies, small hoops, and everyday studs are some of our most popular pieces. We make them in 10K, 14K, or 18K gold with optional diamond pavé.
What metals are available for earrings?
10K, 14K, and 18K gold in yellow, white, and rose, plus platinum and sterling silver. Platinum is the most durable and hypoallergenic — ideal if you have sensitive ears.
What's the difference between push-back and screw-back studs?
Push-back (friction-back) is the standard — easy to wear daily. Screw-back is more secure for high-value diamonds you never want to lose. We offer both and will recommend based on stone size and how you'll wear them.
How long do custom earrings take in Toronto?
Diamond studs take 2-3 weeks, plain gold hoops 2-3 weeks, pavé hoops 3-4 weeks, chandelier and complex multi-stone designs 4-5 weeks. Rush production available.
Can I get earrings re-plated or diamonds tightened?
Yes — free rhodium re-plating and free diamond tightening for life on every pair we create. We also service earrings from other jewellers at competitive rates.
