From Angela, With Love
"In my 15 years as a jewelry designer, there’s nothing I love more than collaborating on a one-of-a-kind project. No design is ever too big or too small; anything is possible! At AMJ we believe in creating a personalized and professional experience that feels welcoming and inclusive for everyone. There's no jewelry more meaningful than a custom design, crafted uniquely for you or your loved one. We look forward to getting to know you as we create your one-of-a-piece. See you soon at our flagship boutique in Philadelphia, or on Zoom!"

Join Us in Giving Back with Every Custom Engagement Ring
When you choose Angela Monaco Jewelry to design your dream engagement ring, you're not just investing in a symbol of love; you're also investing in a cause that matters to you. For every custom ring we create, we'll donate $50 to a non-profit organization of your choice.
Dreaming up Your Perfect Ring
There are many things to consider when you're designing your new heirloom. For example, what gem will star as the center stone? And what about its cut and color? Which precious metal will hold the piece together? Perhaps you already have direction, inspiration or even a stone from a previous design you'd like to upcycle; or maybe you're starting from scratch. With Angela's guidance, you'll work together on choosing all the right design elements for your custom project.

“I've been following Angela's work for a long time, so I always knew I wanted to go to her for my engagement ring. She took my grandma's heirloom ring and expertly deconstructed it to use some of the stones for my mom's new engagement ring and set a beautiful new salt and pepper stone in mine. My ring turned out perfectly and it's exactly what I wanted! Angela was great to work with...I really appreciate her dedication to her work and the care that she puts into her craft.

“Angela and her AMJ team are the best at what they do. My fiancé and I had an idea in our heads of what we wanted for my engagement ring, and Angela created a piece that was both exactly what we wanted and better than we could have imagined. She put so much care and attention into every detail — I always get compliments on my ring! Special bonus: Franc the shop dog

“Angela & the AMJ team are phenomenal to work with! We designed a custom engagement ring that we couldn't adore more. We are going back for custom wedding bands too! Angela is professional, knowledgeable, charismatic, and very responsive. AMJ was recommended to me, and I would recommend to ANYONE looking for a jeweler and artist they can collaborate with and trust.

“Angela was so great to work with. The process seemed so daunting and intimidating but Angela put me at ease during our consultation. I felt like there were so many options, but at the same time I could completely trust Angela to point me in the right direction and take the lead on the design. I explained my fiancée’s style and the type of ring I thought she would like, showed Angela some examples, and she really took it from there. I would absolutely recommend AMJ to handle any sort of custom jewelry you’re looking for. We’re so excited to go back for our wedding bands!
”
“Angela was very easy to work with and despite hiccups due to no fault of her own delivered an absolutely gorgeous ring ahead of schedule.

“I can't recommend Angela enough after having the most amazing experience working with her to create a one of a kind engagement ring for my fiance I was looking for a custom ring, traditional in style, but with a nature inspired twist. She absolutely "rocked" the design with her signature texture made of micro crystal formations to deliver a ring way beyond our expectations.

FAQ
I have an heirloom ring. Can I use its gemstones for my custom jewelry design?
Absolutely! In fact, reusing gemstones and metals is one of the most sustainable ways to create jewelry.
Can I get my custom jewelry engraved?
Yes, totally! We think engraving is one of the most meaningful final touches to any custom project.
Can an existing AMJ design be used to jumpstart my custom order?
One of our favorite requests is to make one of our designs your own! We can change just about any detail: finish, material and even color.
Can we still work together if I can't visit your location in Philadelphia?
Yes, absolutely! We do fabulous work remotely through communicating via phone, emails and Zoom. 2020 has taught us how to provide an intimate customer experience from a safe distance, filled with education, connection and fun!
How do I best maintain the fresh look of my custom ring?
At AMJ, we offer free cleanings for life with your custom order.
How do I find out my partner's ring size?
We offer complimentary ring sizers through our online store. And they ship free!
If you want it to be a secret you can take a ring that they wear and carefully trace the inside of the band as close to the edge as possible with a pencil or fine-tipped pen.
How long does a custom project take to complete?
Typically, our timeline is 8-12 weeks from consultation to delivered product so we encourage our clients to plan accordingly.
What if the ring my partner proposed with doesn't fit?
If we designed the ring, your first resize is on us! Just bring it by our Philadelphia location or mail it to us (with insurance!). If using the mail these days scares you, you can always go to any local jeweler in your city.
