The ring profile is decisive for the optical effect of the ring. Each profile we offer has its own character and reflects the environment in a unique way.
The shape of the ring
In addition to the alloy and the stones, the profile is also decisive for the visual effect of the ring. Each profile we offer has its own character and reflects the environment in a unique way. Be it modern and urban, such as the HHE profile with its precisely turned edges, the perfectly shaped, elegant round wire (RD) or our timeless classic oval (OV), which has been chosen for rings for centuries: choose according to your taste.
Before buying, we recommend trying out different ring shapes and profiles in order to be able to decide for yourself which ring profile is most comfortable to wear. Trust your feelings and the expert advice from one of our partners. With each ring profile, depending on the design of the ring (possibly gemstone size and type of barrel), certain widths and heights must also be observed. Our partners will be happy to help you with this too.
