I. A Note from the Bench

Rhovell began with a single brief — to draw a marquise so narrow it could pass for a candle's flame. We design from the stone outward, never the other way around. Each ring is sketched in graphite, forged in platinum, and finished by a single hand. Nothing leaves the atelier we would not place on someone we love.

Chapter III — The Cut

An elongated argument for elegance.

The marquise is the oldest of the fancy shapes and the most demanding. Cut too short, it loses its line. Cut too long, it loses its fire. We work exclusively in ratios from 2.05 to 2.25 — the proportions, in our view, that read as the unmistakable silhouette of the cut.

Every marquise we place is mapped by hand, the pavilion read in raking light before it ever meets a setting. The stone leads. The metal follows.

N° IV — Sourcing & Service

Every commission is documented, insured, and supported well after the ring leaves the bench.

Certified Stones

Diamond options include GIA or IGI documentation, side-by-side comparison notes, and clear pricing before work begins.

Private Consults

Appointments are one-on-one, either in Brooklyn or by video, with sketches and stone guidance tailored to the wearer.

Bench Made

Each setting is finished, inspected, and photographed in-house before delivery, with sizing confirmed before final polish.

Lifetime Care

Complimentary annual cleaning and inspection keep prongs, pavé, and rhodium service on a thoughtful schedule.

The Bespoke Process.

N° V — Four Movements

From first sketch to final polish — between ten and fourteen weeks.

i.

Sit— first conversation.

A private hour at the atelier, or over a long video call. We talk through references, lifestyle, hand shape, and the stone you are drawn to — never the ring you think you should choose.

Week 0
ii.

Sketch— rendered by hand.

Three graphite drawings, scaled to the finger. We refine until one of them stops you. Stone options are presented in person, under jeweler's loupe and natural light.

Week 2
iii.

Set— platinum & pavé.

Lost-wax cast in our Greenpoint workshop, then hand-set with melée diamonds matched stone-by-stone. Six weeks at the bench; not a minute fewer.

Weeks 4–10
iv.

Present— hand-delivered.

Final reveal at the atelier, in a black walnut presentation box. A lifetime of complimentary cleanings, sizings, and rhodium services included. Forever.

Week 12
Chapter VI — Visit

The atelier, in Greenpoint.

A small room above a print shop on Franklin Street. Two benches, one window, a kettle. We see clients privately by appointment, never more than two pairs in a day.

If you cannot come to Brooklyn, we will come to you — Manhattan, the Hudson Valley, and select cities for serious commissions.
