Ordering an engagement ring is not simply acquiring a piece of jewelry. It's starting a story. In Sara Benavente's bespoke fine jewelry workshop in Madrid, each ring is born from an intimate conversation and becomes an autobiographical, unique, and unrepeatable piece.
Below, we guide you through the steps to begin this process with confidence and clarity.
1. Decide what to tell
Every custom engagement ring is born from an intention. Do you want to capture a shared moment, a family symbol, a gemstone with emotional significance? You don't need to be a jewelry expert. All you need to know is what you want to feel or evoke. Sara's mission will be to transform that story into a truly authentic jewel.
2. Establish a preliminary budget
In handcrafted luxury jewelry, materials and processes are tailored to each individual's story. Having an initial investment range (for example, between €4,000 and €10,000) allows you to explore realistic options without compromising on excellence.
Sara will advise you transparently so that every choice, from the gem to the setting, fits your priorities.
What does it mean to commission a piece of fine jewelry?
Fine jewelry is not just about elegant design or precious stones. It is a craft discipline involving expert gemologists, highly skilled goldsmiths, and meticulous creation processes, guaranteeing excellence in every detail.
Ordering a piece in this context involves investing in:
- Certified premium materials, such as traceable diamonds, natural sapphires or 18K gold
- Exclusive and personalized design, without standard models or mass production.
- Time commitment, both in the conceptualization and in the execution, which requires weeks of specialized work
Ultimately, this is a piece designed to last for generations. Therefore, the price isn't a fixed rate, but rather tailored to the story you want to tell, the finishes you choose, and the level of personalization you desire. The price can be adjusted according to complexity, the type of gemstone, or the level of customization you require.
3. Book an appointment at the Madrid jewelry workshop
Ordering a piece of jewelry requires a conversation; you can contact Sara Benavente in the following ways:
Through the contact form
Through private message in our Instagram
Once we receive your message, the team will propose a date for an initial in-person or online appointment.
It is essential to arrange this visit in advance, as the number of designs accepted each month is limited.
4. Prepare for the date: Inspiration, freedom, and confidence
You don't need to come with a finished idea, but it can be helpful to gather the following:
- Inspirational images (colors, styles, symbols)
- Information about the size and preferences of the person who will receive it
- Ideas about metals (white, yellow, rose gold) or precious stones (diamonds, sapphires, emeralds…)
Sara and her team will listen, propose, and translate all of this into a personalized first draft, tailored to your personal story and budget.
5. How long does it take to make a custom engagement ring?
From the initial consultation to final delivery, the process can take between 4 and 8 weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and the availability of the materials. If you have a specific date in mind, we recommend booking your appointment at least two months in advance.
6. A jewel, many emotions
In addition to its design and high-quality craftsmanship, each ring includes a certificate of authenticity, maintenance recommendations, and, if desired, the option to engrave a hidden message in bas-relief.
Because what is truly valuable is not the jewel itself, but what it symbolizes.
