If you have an engagement ring that’s a little out of the ordinary, whether it has an unusual shape, prominent stone or unique curves, you might find that a standard wedding band just doesn’t sit right.
That’s where a shaped to fit wedding ring comes in. And if you’re searching for a way to create your own wedding ring, perfectly matched to your engagement ring, this is the ideal next step on your journey.
Our expert team can not only help create your dream wedding ring, but ensure it blends beautifully with your engagement ring.
What Exactly Is a Shaped to Fit Wedding Ring?
A shaped to fit wedding ring (sometimes called a custom fit or contoured ring) is designed to follow the exact shape of your engagement ring. Rather than forcing a straight band to awkwardly bump up against a stone or setting, it’s crafted to curve around it seamlessly.
This means the two rings sit snugly together, like they were made for each other — because, quite literally, they were.
At BWR London, we use cutting-edge technology like 3D scanning and printing to design and produce shaped to fit rings that blend beautifully with your engagement ring, no matter how unique the style.
Why Might You Need One?
You might need a shaped-to-fit wedding ring if:
- Your engagement ring has a large central stone, especially one that sits low on the band.
- You’ve opted for a halo setting, which creates a wider top profile.
- Your ring features side stones or decorative elements that extend across the band.
- You want your rings to appear as one fluid design when worn together.
Essentially, if a straight band leaves a gap or rubs awkwardly against your engagement ring, it’s worth considering a shaped design. Not only will it look better, but it’ll also feel more comfortable to wear daily.
Our Process: Designed to Fit, Made to Last
Here’s how we help you create a wedding ring shaped to fit:
- 3D Scanning Your Engagement Ring
If you’re able to visit us in person, we’ll scan your engagement ring using specialist 3D equipment. This gives us a precise digital model, down to the smallest detail. Alternatively, we can come to you.
Alternatively, we can send you a ring impression kit. It’s easy to use and completely safe for your ring. You simply make an impression of your engagement ring at home, send it back to us, and we’ll create a 3D scan from that.
- Designing the Ring on Screen
Once we’ve got the scan, our designers use CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software to create a custom wedding ring that flows perfectly with your engagement ring. This is where you can get creative: adding diamonds, choosing metals, or keeping it beautifully simple.
We’ll share the design with you digitally so you can approve every detail. You’ll be able to see exactly how the two rings will sit together.
3. A 3D Printed Preview
Before we make anything in precious metal, we 3D print your shaped wedding ring in resin. This gives you a physical mock-up you can try on at home: a proper preview of the final fit.
It’s one of the reasons clients love working with us. There are no surprises, no guessing. You’ll know exactly what you’re getting before we proceed.
4. Crafting the Final Ring
Once you’ve signed off the design, we handcraft your ring in the metal of your choice: yellow gold, white gold, platinum, or even a mix. We’re meticulous with finishing, ensuring every curve, contour and polish is perfect.
