House of Vanci the home of unique and rare jewellery and objects of precious metals and gems |
Each ring has been delicately hand designed to be unique and exclusive out of solid 18ct gold then individually hand molded and worked to a high standard of polish by our jewelsmiths.
Every Diamond is expertly triple cut to size and highly polished before individually mounted in the ring. We use the highest quality diamonds that are naturally grade A clarity and colour with wonderful scintillation and fire to ensure your ring makes a glittering statement.
To enhance the rings luster and shine, we plate our 18ct white gold rings with Rhodium. This not only adds a beautiful finish to the gold, it ensures the gold is protected from scratching as pure gold is soft while Rhodium is extremely hard. But most importantly it eliminates any allergy a wearer may have to white gold.
Rhodium is the most valuable precious metal in the world, twice the price of gold but despite its price, its used on most higher valued white gold jewellery for all the above reasons. All this ensures our customers of a unique and exclusively designed hand made diamond and gold ring of the highest quality.

How Vanci Collection rings are made: The jewelsmith first designs a ring using 3D rotating imagery creation and editing software. Once satisfied, the image is then passed to a 3D laser printer which creates an identical ring out of resin. Sometimes this process is completed several times before a resin ring matches every tiny detail. The resin ring is now placed in a specially prepared clay compound and a mould is obtained into which a measured amount of molten gold is poured while being vibrated to release any tiny pockets of air. Once set though still very hot, the newly made gold ring is extracted and immediately dipped in cold water. This process ensure the gold is soft enough to easily work on. Although identical to the original design, the jewelsmith then uses a range of extremely fine tooling, hand rubbing and machine buffing to ensure even the finest detail is perfect. Depending on the complexity of the design, this can take from a few hours to a whole day and even longer for very specialised and intricate designs. The ring is then heated again to soft red colour and allowed to cool at room temperature. This hardens and strengthens the gold against scratching as gold is a naturally soft metal, especially the higher purity 18ct and higher. The next step is plating in Rhodium if using white gold and the delicate work of setting the diamonds or other precious gems. A unique feature in many of our rings is that where many diamonds are used, we taper off the size of the diamonds to match the ring design, rather than just a load of diamonds all one size. This requires considerably more skills and is obviously time consuming as each stone must be exactly measured and matched to each other when setting in the ring. The final result though is well worth it. The completed diamond ring then has an inspection along with any fine details attended to and given a final polish before placing in its box. |
