Buying wedding rings or partner rings can be an exciting process. A ring that will be on your finger forever. A symbol of your love! It should be unique, timeless and comfortable to wear. All this combined with your personal touch.

Take a look at a few examples here and I am sure I can design something beautiful for both of you.

Marriage for all, not just for Adam and Eve!

Your commission starts with a chat! This may be done via email, phone or in Person. If we are not able to meet in person don't worry, email will also work just fine. I work online regularly with many of my clients from all over the world.

I will ask lots of questions to get a feeling of your ideas. Sketchbook in hand we will draw our way through the conversation.

A little background information also helps. How you met, your hobbies etc. This gives me a feel for your style and will help in creating a very personal pair of rings for you both. 

It's a good idea to do a quick sketch of your idea before we meet. It doesn't have to be a good drawing! A very bad scribble is a perfect starting point for us to work on.

If you are not really sure how the final piece should look it's also no problem. During our discussion I will offer you a few ideas and drawings until we find an idea that you are totally happy with.

 

I pride myself on attention to detail and a high level of craftsmanship. Your wedding will be made by hand here in my studio in South Austria with some good music playing in the background. I work with a mix of traditional and modern tools.

 

Gemstones

Here at Atelier O 'Shea we work with a number of miners, particularly in India and Sri Lanka. We support the miners and stone cutters directly by establishing personal contact and paying them fairly.

If you choose a gemstone for your wedding rings we have the best! That means high quality, untreated and mined.

Thankfully chemicals are of no use in Gemstone extraction. Earth is moved, but usually returned back especially in small mines where the land is rented. Miners work hard! They need to be respected and fairly paid! Here at Atelier O' Shea we work together with many miners especially in India and Sri Lanka. We support miners and stone cutters directly. When we choose a stone parcel from a miner he is paid fairly, contact is made and we look forward to a happy future together.

 

 

 

Das Metall / Recyceltes Gold

.

 

Recycled Gold is made up of old jewellery or old electronics. The metal is tested, melted at over 1000 degrees Celsius and refined down to original pure gold (24 karat). The Gold is again tested and then alloyed under strict European Hallmark laws.

Recycling Gold is nothing new! Goldsmiths have always recycled their precious metal. We are very proud to say that our Gold is 100% recycled from local scrap by an Austrian refinery.

Maybe its time to mine less and recycle more

 

Finally, your rings will be hallmarked with the official O' Shea stamp and alloy stamp. Then hand polished and inspected before they find their way into one of my branded boxes. Ready for the big day!
