Right from my first enquiry, the 1791 team impressed me with their care for detail and willingness to go to extra effort to provide quality service. I am living overseas but wanted a New Zealand made engagement ring for my Fiance. Ardouin from Customer Services organised the shipping and tackled the challenging French customs systems to get the ring safely across to the other side of the world. When it arrived it was perfectly crafted and beautifully designed. I needed to resize the ring and again Ardouin organised everything for the ring to be resized in Europe by a trusted jeweller. Throughout the entire process comunication was fantastic, even across so many timezones, and I felt completely at ease that the ring was safe. My fiance loves the ring and we will be in touch again soon to choose our wedding bands from 1791.

I had something specific in mind for my wife to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary, and 1791 couldn't have made it easier. I told Designer Alice roughly what I was after and within a day I had a beautiful rendered image of the ring design sitting on my desktop that you could have sworn was a photo of the real thing. So from idea to reality in about 48 hours, not bad! We were easily able to make a couple of small design tweaks, and the result was stunning. Right through the process from design to the paperwork afterwards was a pleasure and I would highly recommend 1791 to anyone looking for value for money and an outstanding result. I know my wife loved it :)
Ignite Diamond Ring Review
Ignite, from the 1791 Diamonds Modena collection, offers a graceful alternative to traditional solitaire diamond engagement rings. With the diamonds channel set into the white gold band the design is simple, almost understated, yet lacks nothing in elegance.
As the name Ignite suggests, the diamonds sparkle with fire and brilliance, creating a fabulous wave of shimmering light. The effect is one of tasteful opulence; it is quietly chic rather than fabulously ostentatious.
The channel setting means that the diamonds are securely nestled within the band and there is little danger of losing them for those who lead active, outdoor lifestyles or play a lot of sport.
The Ignite design stands apart from traditional engagement rings with its distinct style. It is not awe inspiring in the manner of large, flashy solitaire diamonds, but nor does it pretend to be. With its clean lines this design offers simple and graceful beauty.
