Guide to Ordering

Guide to ordering a custom made engagement ring from Leon Mege

An engagement ring is considered the most important token of love and devotion. Distinguish yourself by wearing a Leon Megé engagement ring. Commissioning a custom ring requires some degree of imagination. Ability to visualize design that does not exist yet is very important when considering your options. If the choice of prongs keeps you up at night - lean back and let us do the heavy lifting. Our expertise and experience will virtually guarantee your success. Alternatively, buying a finished piece from our inventory is a smart choice in case your imagination is playing tricks with your vision. 

Gather ideas


Start by gathering different designs. Try to limit your choices to one or two styles through a process of elimination. Look online, at retail stores, see magazine ads, and involve friends and relatives.
Our online Portfolio is a very useful tool for comparing different options.

Make sure to bring your stone with you, you'll need to leave it with us. Your stone must remain with us for the duration of the time it takes to make your piece. We will not take an order without having the stone in our possession at all times.

 

Choose sidestones

We will supply the side stones. Selecting side stones is an artistic skill and must be taken seriously. It’s not just the size and quality of the stones that matters.

We have to consider subtle varieties of the stone shapes, faceting, proportions,
fluorescence, as well as your finger size, ring design, angles, steps, etc. That is why it's important to have your stone on hand while choosing the side stones.

 

Finalize the order

Once we are clear on all aspects of the job we will prepare a work order where we describe the job in minute details, list stones, and calculate your costs and payments. We'll require your signature before we start the work.

We consider your order to be formally placed when your work order is signed and we have received your deposit. For more info on prices and payment click here>>
