A plain band if you look at it from one side – and with 9 little Diamonds when you turn it around!

One single Princess Cut Diamond on each side of the lady’s band. Both look the same on the finger, but when you look a bit closer you find this precious detail.

Add a modern edge to a plain band – Princess Cut Diamond placed off-centre.

All these rings are also good examples of wedding ring designs that are similar, yet with their own individual touches to represent the bride and groom. More designs can be found in a previous post - Matching rather than Identical.

As a tribute to all Dragons, we have designed the Goldilocks™ I am Dragon.  Since Dragons like things their own way, we have made two options to choose from. The Chinese character for Dragon [Long] on a White Gold Chain makes a clean every-day piece.

For the Dragon with a bit more attitude; a 2-tone Pendant with a golden Long and a strong White Gold plate to match this fierce animal.

The Dragon also goes beautifully with gemstones – maybe even a birthstone!

x Chris & Sara

What made you choose a Goldilocks to propose with? When I decided to propose to my girlfriend, Wanlin, I knew I needed a piece of jewellery. After some hinting from her here and there, I concluded that she didn’t want a proposal ring. On top of that, I have no idea of her ring size, so it would be hard for me to get a ring for her. So what I thought of next was a necklace. She lacks of a lovely necklace to go with her nice clothes. My friends thought it was a good idea too, provided the pendant had a meaningful design, for example, Wanlin’s and my initials.

I then started to search online for jewellery shops that provide customized design pendant service. Goldilocks was one of the first I found. The moment I saw the pendants designed by Goldilocks, I fell in love with them. The designs are simple yet elegant. To be honest, I didn’t go to Goldilocks straight. I took Goldilocks’s pendant designs as reference and went to another shop which my friend recommended. When they tried to design a pendant for me, the result was utterly disappointing. That’s when I knew I must turn to Goldilocks. After a few days, I received 2 mock designs from Goldilocks and they were both stunningly beautiful.

Could you explain what the WE stands for? It stands for Wanlin & Eugene. I guess you can also read it as “we”.

How are you planning to propose? To cut a long story short, I will be proposing at Siloso beach, and some of our friends will be gathered there to witness and be part of the proposal. I hope (I’m sure) Wanlin will like the necklace.

We had to hold this post until Eugene proposed so that the information would not leak to his girlfriend. He has now notified us that all went well, so we publish this for Eugene and Wanlin – Wishing you both all the best! 

Tiphaine explains ‘After reading Patrick Süskind’s Perfume I became absolutely fascinated with scents’. Her ‘cruel passion for vanilla’ brought her into working with French luxury fragrance companies, which in turn lead to finding her real calling – design. Making sure that she was always working on creative projects where she could use her hands, she created jewellery and accessories before taking on a second degree – this time in Arts. Lucky for us, she chose Singapore for this.

‘Here I met Chris & Sara, and after a few jewellery classes (and beers) I ended up doing this moustache with them. What a delight.’

Why a moustache? Why should a moustache be for men only? I would love to wear one. Girls may want to wear one too, if they cannot grow one (hopefully not). I think it is a great accessory. And a moustache looks very dandy, very French, very masculine and provocatively sexy (but not on all of you gentlemen, I’m sorry).

What were the challenges (if any) in designing a Goldilocks? Goldilocks is one thread only. So no crazy double tip moustache with volume can be created. I first wanted to give it a bit of thickness, but had to try something else. Actually it’s much better to keep it simple. It goes straight to the point. The essence of a moustache. Curl, wave, wave, curly curl.

Majority of you, choose to make matching bands, rather than identical. And matching is a term that gives you a lot more flexibility. Here are a few examples of how to show that you are a pair, without wearing the exact same ring.

While using the same colour, this couple chose designs that suit their respective size and taste.

His works well as a contemporary statement ring with matte finish. Hers borrows the same element of round squarishness, but made to be worn together with her Diamond engagement ring.

Matching colour and finishing, but with different shapes. The lady’s band required square edges to fit the Princess cut Ruby. He chose a rounded band which he thought looked better on his finger.  

This couple chose to make their rings in an overall same shape, but with Diamonds for her.

As you can see, the options are endless when you open up to the idea of matching rather than identical wedding rings. As they say, opposites attract, and these are examples of how stunning different designs can look together. It also means that one party does not need to compromise on their wishes, as you can both get the design that you like.

Cheryl, a secondary school teacher, recently collected her third Goldilocks, and we took the opportunity to ask her a few questions.

You just collected your third Goldilocks necklace – what keeps you coming back for more? I feel that Goldilocks is customisation in its truest sense, since no two pieces are alike.

You have shown interest in the Goldilocks Doodles as well – what would you like to see next?  I’m looking forward to Goldilocks in the form of rings.What will your next Goldilocks be? Hmm…We’ll have to wait till I have another baby? But that may take quite long, so perhaps an ‘&’ for now.Thank you, Cheryl! 

One brand especially, caught our eye. At first, we only wanted to visit the shop and meet the designer for our blog, but after seeing the jewellery we knew we had to be part of it! As the first shop outside of the Scandinavian countries to sell these lovelies, we are proud to present Drakenberg Sjölin at More than Diamonds. Each piece is inspired by light and dark, which defines the seasons in the Nordic countries.

Winter, spring, summer or fall, now you can wear them all.

When we have decided on the right size for the design, we select the Diamonds.

An example of a stunning result! Large centrepiece can look even bigger with the right selection of surrounding Diamonds.Another reason to custom make is that you can make the wedding or anniversary ring match the size of Diamonds and band exactly. 

As you can see, the size of the surrounding Diamonds, affect the design more than the size of the centrepiece Diamond does.  Just as in Hollywood, it is often the supporting actors, who make a good  film great.

Chunky Men’s Ring with Round Diamond. Unpolished White Gold leaves the yellow tone of the original colour and makes this design that extra bit special. What is even more amazing, is that the tiny gap on the side of the ring, is positioned to reveal the entire laser inscription on the diamond girdle. Now, that will give you an idea of how small those numbers really are. Another chunky design with a square Diamond to match the shape. Matte Finish for that rough, manly look.

Same shape in a much smaller version – for the pinky. Can be set with a gemstone of choice, and if you have a family crest or want to engrave your initials, that will sit just fine, too.
