Having wedding rings made, a unique start to your story

The wedding season has opened. The sun is shining, the days are getting longer and with the warm light, love is also blossoming. More and more couples are choosing to have their wedding rings made , a conscious choice for rings that really fit their story and personality.

At Charlotte Vogel Juwelen you can have wedding rings made that are designed with care from start to finish. No standard models imported from a faraway country, but rings that are created in consultation, based on your wishes, handmade in the studio.

Personal and artisanal design

A wedding ring is more than just a beautiful piece of jewelry. It is a symbol that is worn daily, a tangible memory of a special moment. That is precisely why many people choose to have their wedding rings made: this creates a design that truly suits who you are.

It can be understated and classic, modern and sleek, or just organic and full of character. There are many possibilities. Consider, for example, the Japanese forging technique Mokume Ganewhere layers of metal such as copper, silver, yellow gold or red gold melt together to create a structure reminiscent of wood grains. Each ring is unique. No pattern is the same, just as no relationship is the same.

Symbols, initials or even a fingerprint can also be incorporated into the design. And do you have any old gold or heirlooms with emotional value? Then it is often possible to incorporate that into the new rings.

Special wedding rings in the collection

In addition to custom work, Charlotte Vogel Juwelen also offers a permanent collection of special wedding rings . Each design is carefully composed and shows its own character: from subtle and classic to distinctive and artistic. This collection is a good source of inspiration, but also a beautiful option for those who immediately fall in love with an existing design.

How long does the process take?

The process of having wedding rings made takes an average of four to six weeks , depending on the design, choice of material and the possible setting of gemstones. We always start with a personal conversation in which your ideas, preferences and questions are central. Based on this, an initial design and a clear price quote follow.

How much does a set of wedding rings cost?

Custom wedding rings usually start at around €1750 per set , but can vary based on material and complexity. What is important: you know in advance what it will cost. No surprises afterwards.

14 carat or 18 carat wedding rings, what is the difference?

A frequently asked question when choosing wedding rings is: do you choose 14 karat or 18 karat gold ? Both are suitable for everyday use, but there are a few important differences:

• 14 carat gold (58.5% pure gold) is harder and more wear-resistant. This makes it ideal for rings that are worn intensively, such as wedding rings. Due to the addition of more alloy metals, it is slightly less warm in colour than 18 carat, but therefore somewhat stronger.

• 18 carat gold (75% pure gold) has a richer, warmer color and is often seen as more luxurious. It is slightly softer and therefore more sensitive to scratches, but with normal use it remains beautiful. For those who value the high gold content, 18 carat is an excellent choice.

Which option is best depends on personal preference, style and how intensely you wear the rings. In my collection you will find both variants and I will gladly advise you on what suits you best.

Which hand do you wear a wedding ring on?

The hand on which a wedding ring is worn varies by country, culture and personal preference. In the Netherlands, it is customary to wear the wedding ring on the right hand . This is in contrast to many other countries, such as Belgium, France and the United States, where the ring is often worn on the left hand .

There is no right or wrong, it is a personal choice. Some people consciously choose the left hand because that is traditionally seen as the 'ring finger of the heart'. Others wear it on the right hand because that is the standard in the Netherlands, or because it is more practical in daily life.

It is also common for couples with different cultural backgrounds or preferences to wear their ring on a different hand as a symbol of unity in diversity.
