Some pieces are designed to represent more than a moment. They are created to carry identity, family history and personal meaning for generations.

This bespoke signet ring was commissioned as a special gift, centred around a custom monogram created specifically for its owner. On either side of the ring, ruby birthstones are set within hand engraved starburst motifs, adding another layer of personal symbolism to the design.

In a rare departure from Christine's usual fabrication process, the ring was first hand carved in wax before being cast in solid gold. This approach allowed the proportions and flowing surfaces of the signet to be refined by hand before the engraving and gemstone setting were completed.

The result is a substantial and timeless piece that balances strength with craftsmanship. Every detail, from the sculpted form to the engraved monogram and carefully set rubies, was created with longevity in mind.

Handcrafted by Christine Price Goldsmith in Whangārei, New Zealand.
