Tanzanite’s is named after its place of origin, in Northern Tanzania.1000 times rarer than diamonds, Tanzanite is a fitting stone to give your one in a million, and with only an estimated 30-year supply left in the world, this is a particularly precious choice for an engagement ring.
Onyx
Onyx is a beautiful mineral that comes in a variety of colours but it most commonly found in its black form for fine jewellery.
A dense, yet silky stone, (at 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale) Onyx would make a unique and utterly stylish addition to your engagement ring, as a classic black stone, it will be timeless and chic modern choice which will not date.
Lapis Lazuli
Its deep, celestial blue is the most captivating colour and its beautiful gold flecks can add a really opulent touch to a gold setting. Its name comes from the Latin lapis, “stone,” and the Persian lazhuward, “blue.”

The giving
A heart they have to break
Every piece arrives in a Stephen Einhorn box. For the ones that should be remembered, we wrap the piece in soft cloth and seal it inside a plaster heart, hand painted in the colour you choose. To reach what is inside, they have to crack it open.
Personalised
Engraved by hand
Almost everything we make can be engraved by hand in our workshop: initials on the face of a signet, a date inside a ring, a line only they will understand. Engraved pieces cannot be returned, so if you are unsure of the size, order it plain and we will engrave it afterwards.
