NOLAN FINE JEWELRYEngagement Ring Investment Guide
How It Works
Every ring is designed and built around your vision, executed with the highest level of craftsmanship. To guide the process, our work falls into two tiers.
Classic | Starting $4,500 - $7,500+
Your ring begins with one of our NOLAN signature styles: solitaire, halo, 3-stone, or floral. From there, we design a ring made entirely for you.
Bespoke | Starting $7,500 - $30,000+
Your ring begins as a vision or story. Nolan takes your inspiration, shapes it into something made to be worn for a lifetime and crafts a one of one piece, start to finish.
What Shapes Your Investment
-
Every ring begins with selecting the center stone, whether diamond or gemstone, as the design is shaped by what the stone calls for. The center stone can vary widely in investment based on type, carat weight, color, and rarity.
-
Hand engraving, french pavé, mixed pavé stone setting, and detailed basket work.
-
Hidden halos, stones set inside the band, private engravings, a stone set into the under gallery. Touches that make a ring entirely yours, among our favorite details to add.
-
We work in 14-22k yellow, white, and rose gold, as well as platinum. Each metal impacts the total ring investment based on its composition.
For example 18k gold has a higher gold content than 14k gold, and therefore comes at a premium.
Platinum is slightly heavier than gold in weight & requires a bit more in labor, so there it also comes at a premium.
THE CLASSICS

Engagement Rings

BESPOKE
Bespoke Engagement Rings
For those who desire Nolan’s artistry to bring to life a one-of-one ring that represents the story of your union. We start with a deeply personal element, whether a vision, landscape, story, or moment in time and craft a ring that encompasses something truly unique to you.
Many bespoke pieces feature gemstones custom cut specifically for the ring they will live in, designed and cut by Nolan himself. The stone and setting are created as one entity from the very beginning.
From $7,000. Recent commissions have ranged from $8,500 to $50,000+.
