Can I customize a ready-to-ship ring?
We can sometimes do small customizations like hand-engraving depending on the ring. Send us a message or book a free consult and we can tell you what’s possible! If not, we can create a custom ring inspired by the ready-made ring you love.
Are Gem Breakfast ready-to-ship rings really one-of-a-kind?
Yes — every piece is made from scratch, one-of-one, and never mass-produced.
Are custom rings more expensive?
Surprisingly, no! Because every ring at Gem Breakfast is made from scratch, there’s no upcharge for creating custom.
What if I need a ring immediately?
Go for ready-to-ship — you’ll have it in hand in just a few days (overnight is even possible in some cases).
