What our customers say
I can’t say enough great things about Boutee. I loved the suggestions they provided and was quickly able to connect with an incredible jeweller. Some of the best customer service I’ve ever received, I’d recommend them to absolutely anyone and everyone.

My experience with Boutee has been exceptional. I stumbled across Boutee online after disappointing search for my dream engagement ring with many larger companies. Boutee offers that personalised experience... Thank you for your attention to detail and outstanding customer service!

Fantastic way to find bespoke, custom-made rings from independent designers who love what they do. If you're looking for a personal, affordable option for either designing or buying a ring, this is the place.

Matched with Jodie Gearing
The process was so easy and simple and really helpful as I had no clue where to begin when I started looking. I have now received my dream engagement ring and I love that I was able to have my input on what it looked like and how it was made. I would really recommend Boutee to everyone (and I do!).

This depends entirely on the type/quality of materials and gemstones you want to use, as well as the complexity of the design. Pieces usually start from £500, but people usually spend at least £1000.
Yes - independent Jewellers can do more than you think!
If you have your ideas thought out already, we can match you up with a maker that can bring those plans to life. Alternatively, if you’re still unsure about what you want the final piece to look like, you can discuss it with any of our jewellers who will help you design the perfect piece.
The timeline for crafting a custom engagement ring depends on the jeweller, the availability of materials, and the complexity of the design. It's always a good idea to check with the jeweller about their current lead times before committing. Typically, you can expect the process to take between 6 to 12 weeks, but this can vary based on specific requirements.
