    It’s a fresh take on a classic design – with the more refined shank and the way the diamonds are set with four prongs on every stone – it feels modern, seriously luxe, and so not clunky like a lot of other diamond bands.


    It’s gorgeous, celestial, and the most beautiful spacer band for any stack. The hand-engravings and scattered diamonds are stunning, plus it’s very comfortable and easy to wear.


    This is the ultimate classic yet distinctive solitaire – between that massive icey round brilliant diamond and the hand-applied milgrain along both the band and basket – it’s a showstopper. And the knife-edged band really takes it over the top – a dream engagement ring for sure!


    This sapphire is just insane! Normally, blue sapphires read navy blue or just very dark in certain lighting but this one is bright blue right from the core – it’s truly exceptional. Also, I love the design – it’s so unique and is truly a statement ring.


    I love spinel and the color of this one is fabulous. The design is amazing, so unique and distinctive – it’s such a powerful right hand ring. I can’t wait to see who picks this one up!

    I LOVE this ring! I just bought one for myself and one for my best friend’s 30th bday. It’s so light and easy to wear and I love the texture – it looks beautiful in a stack or would make an amazing wedding band. Honestly, every woman should have a gorgeous gold band like this to wear on the daily!


    I bought this in 18 kt peach gold as a bday present to myself! It’s amazing – so much sparkle, and the hand-engraving is beyond stunning. It feels like a classic rounded band except upgraded, modernized, and diamond encrusted! It kind of nods its cap to a men’s band with those rounded edges and I love that. I picked the thicker version because you can see the engraving more, and of course, more diamonds!


    I gifted myself this ring in yellow gold with champagne diamonds to complete my bday stack - I’ve been wanting to make an amazing stack for years and I’m so happy I finally got to make it happen! I’ve always loved champagne diamonds – they feel so warm and golden and I love odd numbers so this was the perfect custom-made band for me! It’s fun to take a GB style and customize it for yourself, and we can do that in any way you like!


    My siblings and I bought a thicker version (3mm wide) of this ring for my mom’s 65th bday! Why I love this band: it has such a fun texture and details are gorgeous. My mom loves bamboo and Asian antiques so this ring really reflects her style with all the organic bamboo details. It also feels very 70s to me – kind of retro but in the coolest way. I made a thicker version for my mom because she likes more substantial jewelry – again, it’s fun to customize pieces just for you!  


    This is the perfect holiday engagement ring or treat yourself ring. I cannot believe it hasn’t sold yet – every time I see it I fall in love again. That champagne pear is so gorgeous – I’ve never seen one more beautiful. And it’s even more mesmerizing in person, honestly. This one came from the solitaire squad collection, where the challenge was to make the most special, memorable solitaire and you can see that in the intricate feather details surrounding the stones. It’s feel natural, yet still gorgeously modern.

    Aquamarine is my birthstone and such an underrated stone, especially in fine jewelry. I’m a big fan of Emily's signature enamel work and this ring is chock full of extravagant, one-of-a-kind details - milgrain, those blue and white diamond accents, and just an overall intriguing silhouette.


    This ring was a birthday present to myself this year – a ‘congratulations you’re alive for another year’ and a treat during the craziness that’s been 2020. We all need a little self-treat after the year we’ve had, and what better way to say ‘I love you’ to yourself than with a ballin’ diamond band?!


    The multicolored ombré means it could stack with so many different colors – a pure white diamond, a pink stone, an emerald or sapphire – so many possible combos! I love that it combines the darker shades with lighter ones – it embodies my aesthetic at all stages of my life – the emo high school me and the feminine pink-lover I am now.


    First, I love its golden snitchness – Harry Potter fans will hear me on that one! I love the organic feel, the symmetry, the gentle curve – it’s the perfect shape to either stack or wear on its own. And honestly, anything that’s hand-carved nestles into my heart – it means no one else will have the same ring and that it’s truly one of a kind. It would look amazing with Nox from Attic Gold.


    Courtney's favorites


    This is just magical. I love the crescent moons and constellations and most of all that it’s hand-engraved. It’s so special knowing that someone sat there for hours etching out those designs by hand. This ring would elevate any stack or would be gorgeous all by itself!


    I’m a sucker for a green sapphire – and this one has the most amazing deep emerald green color – it’s ridiculously stunning. And that octagon shape framed by those marquis diamonds – I’ve never seen anything like it. It would make a super unique OOAK engagement ring or the ultimate ‘I love you’ to yourself!  


    This one’s been on my list for a while. I love a pointed band, and this one is just next-level – the height is amazing; it looks like a tiara but in the most chic, minimalistic way. You could wear it either with a solitaire or a stack of bands and it would make a serious statement.  


    This ring feels like a dessert to me – like whipped buttercream dusted in gold leaf. It’s just the most stunning band – it feels very much like a handmade treasure. It would add a stunning element of texture to any stack, and at that price, it’s a perfect gift to yourself just because you feel like it!  


    This is such an ethereal dream ring! Between that icy hexagon salt and pepper diamond and the amazing diamond halo, it’s magical. I love the size and that it’s stackable with other bands so you can build a truly towering ring stack. Also, the pointed knife edge band really takes this ring to another level of uniqueness.

    I love a chunky statement ring – and this one has it all for me. I love extremes and opposites – either really symmetrical pieces or really freestyle organic pieces like this one. It looks exactly like the sun it’s named for and feels incredibly unique. I love the hammered texture most of all – it gives it that artisan-made feeling that always draws me in.


    I love rings that look handmade and not too perfect – those small indentations on the band really make it feel special and unique. I love the dark salt and pepper stone and I’m a sucker for rose gold. This ring has more of a boho, laissez faire vibe which really speaks to me.


    This ring looks simultaneously royal, symmetrical, and somehow boho all at the same time. I love the face-up size of the ring – it really makes a statement yet still has that handmade feel that I can’t resist.  


    This one is just so unique – it looks handmade (like all my favorites) and has a very organic feel to it. It feels like it was designed in a very freestyle way – like the designer gave herself total freedom and let the stones dictate the design without any constraints.


    It looks so royal yet in the most modern, cool girl way. It would act as the perfect crown topper to a pear shaped diamond especially, but would add to the beauty of any stack. I would choose it in rose gold personally!
