Brockton Gems Engagement Rings
How would you describe your brand?
Repurposed Antique Diamonds
I’m a gemologist and expert in antique diamonds and my thing is what I call “Modern Vintage”, where I repurpose antique diamonds and reset them in clean modern designs. All made in a small Toronto workshop. I love the idea of reusing something already in existence instead of digging up something or creating it new.
Each Piece Is Unique
The antique diamonds make each engagement ring I create one-of-a-kind. Each antique diamond is a unique little pieces of art and would have been cut by hand over 100 years ago (without the use of modern machinery, imaging or lasers). So each ring is unique and and has that special handmade quality that I think makes each piece special.
Special Experience
I am to provide a more personalized and relaxed alternative to the traditional jewellery store experience. I want you to feel like I’m welcoming you into my Parisian apartment for a friendly visit in my living room. I personally sit down with you for a special one-on-one appointment (it’s never a sales associate) so I only take on a limited number of clients.
What type of engagement rings are your speciality?
I have a really diverse collection of unique pieces but I would say my specialty is true vintage engagement rings and what I call “modern vintage” where I repurpose antique diamonds and gemstones and reset them in wearable more modern settings.
Do you offer custom designs?
I do offer custom designs. You can visit my website and build your own custom ring online with a repurposed antique diamond. You get to choose your gem, setting, metal and size and I will custom make your one-of-a-kind engagement ring. Your ring will be delivered to your door in approximately 4 weeks (or you can pick it up in person at my Toronto studio). You can also send me a message on my website to get the process started.
What’s your bestselling engagement ring?
I would say my James setting is the best selling for 2024.
I think it’s so popular because the low profile, floating bezel setting is so practical and wearable. The bezel protects the gem from the bumps of everyday wear while still allowing a wedding band to sit flush. It also looks great with so many different gem shapes and orientations.
Where are your engagement rings made?
Everything is made locally in house or vintage.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes I offer flexible layaway plans for in-stock items and also offer payment using affirm on my website which allows you to finance the ring and enjoy it immediately.
What are your shipping and sizing policies?
I offer free expedited shipping including insurance and signature within Canada and the United States. I also offer a sizing service. Sizing takes approximately 5 business days. Sizing is either included or I just charge a nominal fee to cover my costs.
Brockton Gems is a great Toronto engagement ring boutique if you’re looking for vintage engagement rings or a modern twist on traditional vintage rings.
