Emily S.
I really can't say enough amazing things about Frank Darling, who worked with us every step of the way for this gorgeous 3-stone ring of my dreams, from our first time looking at rings at the Frank Darling showroom in New York to our actual selection and design process with Gia in Los Angeles. Frank Darling's beautiful, timeless styles, stunning quality and stone selection, and warm and personable staff all made me so glad we went with Frank Darling to work on this ring. Gia in LA was particular...

Absolutely obsessed with my ring. Emily in the NY showroom was so accommodating when she pulled a square radiant for me the night before my appointment as a last minute request and it’s exactly the diamond we ended up falling in love with. I also changed my mind on the setting at the 11th hour and Mila was so kind to help me. Everyone is blown away by my ring and the quality and craftsmanship is unmatched. I love it as much as my fiancè 😂

Keelin M.
My fiancé & I found this ring and never looked back. The combination of an emerald cut in an oval bezel is so unique and perfect. The chunky gold is modern but classic. We chose a 2 ct emerald cut moissanite — the setting and stone work so well together ♥️ This ring is extremely comfortable and wearable while still feeling very glamorous, I’m obsessed. The whole experience with Frank Darling from the Chicago showroom to purchase to shipping was wonderful.

I am absolutely obsessed with my ring!! It is truly the most beautiful ring I’ve ever seen! Frank Darling was so helpful, answered all of my questions, and there were many. I saw this setting in the reviews and I was immediately in love. For reference, it’s a 3.59, lab grown radiant diamond in the plunge three stone setting. It sparkles in all lighting, it’s gorgeous!! Thank you Frank Darling!

Gosh I love my ring so much, we had the best time in person at one of their studios, we went with the Chiclet with a 3CT emerald cut. The only difference was removing the couple claws for single. The experience really was educational and helpful, without any sales push at any point. I've NEVER found another setting like this and I'm so happy every day with it.

My fiancé and I had the best experience working with Frank Darling, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! I had already chosen the Plutch setting on my own, and when we started seriously discussing ring shopping, we decided to ring in the new year by flying out to their San Francisco design center to select the stone. Emmy was so patient, so knowledgeable, and such a joy to work with, and her communication with us throughout the entire process was top notch! She helped us to select the perf...

We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Olivia in NYC! My ring is beautiful and exactly as I’d envisioned. We went with the daily bezel setting and made some small customizations (milgrain detail, 2 mm band width) and it is absolutely perfect. I can’t stop staring at it! The whole process was easy and the ring was shipped several weeks faster than expected. We are thrilled with the quality and beauty of the ring and completely satisfied with our consultation and purchase experienc...

Rebecca T.
This ring exceeded all expectations!! I couldn’t dream up a more perfect ring for me and in all honesty, I had been dreaming about this moment a lot. This is the Breezy with an emerald center stone and an 18mm gold band. He chose this ring with the preferences from me that it 1. Is a three stone (a family tradition) 2. Had an emerald cut center stone. 3. That it will be able to stack flush with a classic band. I like the shape it has on my hand. I work in healthcare and the lower profile gives m...

Ana in the San Francisco studio helped me select a stone and customize the setting to make it perfect for me. She gave great advice and the very best customer service. She genuinely seemed to care about the final ring meeting our expectations. She was good at helping us combine our ideas to make my fiancé and I both happy. She noticed how in love and excited we were and she feels like an intricate part of our story now. The ring? Well what can I say? Look at the picture, it’s unique and so bea...

I absolutely love my rings!!! After 17 years of marriage I finally upgraded my wedding set to something more reflective of my current style. I booked a consultation and the entire process was phenomenal from start to finish. Lilia was super helpful, responsive and made the process enjoyable. My ring stack includes The E.W. Cutch with a 3.06 ct. lab grown oval diamond, The Vow band and The Wave band, all set in 14 ct. yellow gold. I just love her, pictures don’t do her justice!!!

We loved the experience of designing and buying the ring. We were on a trip to New York from the UK and decided to try our luck at Frank Darling and we’re so glad we did. Kegan was incredibly helpful throughout the process and myself and Sarah are so happy with the results of the ring. Thank you so much to all involved

Had an overall great experience with Frank Darling due to their policies on customization that I could not find anywhere else, the fact that they stick to those policies, and their responsiveness and kindness. Very happy with my two tone rose gold royale setting.

Heather C.
This is a replacement for my wedding set lost years ago, and an upgrade for our 15th wedding anniversary. The Triple Bezel is stunning, effortlessly elegant, and so easy to wear. We chose a 2.18ct, I VVS2 emerald cut lab diamond in platinum. My husband and I are both blown away at the quality of the setting and the stone. We paired the 3mm square wedding band in platinum as well. Clean, simple, timeless, perfect. Already looking to create a right hand Mom ring. Thank you to Claire and FD for a d...

If we could give FD 6 stars, we would!! We initially went with the double scoop emerald but decided to make some customizations, and Alice made the process extremely easy and straightforward. The craftsmanship is top notch and we couldn’t be happier with the final piece. She was incredible and so is the ring!! 🤍

I quite literally could not have imagined a better experience! I stumbled upon FD through a viral TikTok video back in 2020 and instantly fell in love with their designs, ethos, and sustainability. From that moment, I was hellbent on having a custom Frank Darling ring of my own. My fiancé and I actually went the non-traditional route and designed my ring together… 7 months after he proposed in Italy. We flew to NYC from Florida just to pick out the perfect ring. Ashley C was wonderful and we can...

My fiancé and I had a wonderful experience with FD! We looked together at a few different companies, but I really fell in love with the low profile and sleek styles they have. After a few hints, I let him handle most of the process and final decisions. He did not get the 3D model, which sounds cool and very helpful, but I’m happy it was more of a surprise personally. I appreciate that they offer free resize. I know Taylor helped him a lot and he said she was really great. We will definitely come...

My now-fiancé (!!) had a great experience working with Zach at Frank Darling though the setting chosen was ultimately too thin for the size of the stone and when it inevitably got caught on something a few months in, it bent. I was devastated and reached out to FD to ask about resetting. I was connected with the amazing Alyse who was SO helpful and talked me through the whole process, helped me choose a new setting that was as similar to my original setting as possible. I am in Australia so send...

Frank Darling did an incredible job once again! I initially did a custom version of the Creampuff setting and realized I needed to change the ring altogether to match my lifestyle. I was able to send the original ring back with no issue and ended up doing a custom version of their Breezy Bezel setting. Ceirra worked with me to address any concerns I had and facilitated the entire custom design process seamlessly. Thank you FD!!

My experience was top notch! Ana was my design consultant and she absolutely killed it. She helped me find the perfect ring to stack with other rings down the road. I didn’t love the V tip so Ana helped me customize the V tip to a prong matching the bottom two prongs. The result was exactly how I pictured! Also, the diamond Ana helped me pick out ended up selling on another site (very typical as these lab diamonds are listed on multiple sites) so Frank Darling upgraded my diamond with a better c...

IN LOVE. I seriously have my own personal disco ball on my finger. It's sparkly when it's not in direct sunlight, but OMG when it is, it is crazy. Do your research on what to look for when picking a diamond!!! We chose the daily bezel because I wanted something modern and unique. Lets be for real, I wanted a rock, but I didn't want the usual engagement ring either. Ring details: size 6.25, Platinum, & 3.5 Ct Lab. I could not be happier! Now time for a band! Lol

After years of not being able to wear my full wedding set due to frequent swelling in my knuckles from autoimmune issues, my husband and I set out on a journey to find a ring that could be a beautiful statement all on its own with no band. This year will mark 10 years since our engagement (and next year 10 years since our wedding) and after months of looking, I kept coming back to the French Halo Pear. I looked at it so much that it would pop up in ads on my social media almost daily. So for my ...

I have been dreaming of upgrading my wedding set for several years and Serafina with Frank Darling in DC helped me bring this dream to life. I couldn’t be happier. We did the whole process virtually and it went so smooth and easy. We had great communication and she kept me posted each step of the way. The quality and craftsmanship of this set is superb. I cannot recommend FD and especially Serafina enough. I plan to add to my collection in the future. For reference, I chose the Nouveau five st...

Can't take my eyes off my beautiful OG pendant necklace. The claw prong setting is lovely, the chain is strong yet still looks delicate, and what can I say about the lab diamond I chose -- it's stunning! It's bright and sparkles like the stars. Couldn't be happier with my little beauty. Thank you!

A word from HIM: My fiancé (yes, she said yes) and I were struggling to find the right engagement ring that met all our expectations. Frank Darling not only hit the nail in the head in terms of three-stone ring settings styles, but also in stone selection and offering customizations without breaking the bank. I worked with Emmy the showroom manager and she was super helpful and quick to respond to all inquiries. It was a super pleasant experience purchasing the ring and having it delivered. Will...

Saw this setting on FD many months ago and it just STUCK with me. We went in person to NYC to see it and some diamonds we picked, but none of that worked out…they didn’t have the setting in stock, nor the diamonds we asked to see. So that part was a bummer honestly BUT once we worked with Emmy in the SF office, everything went so smoothly. We were able to see 3 diamonds we picked out and the setting. I got to try on 2 sizes of the 3D printed version of the ring to determine my size. In the end e...

We have ordered several items from Frank Darling and we have only had the best experience ever! Going to their Instagram was a huge help in picking what band I wanted. They showcased my exact engagement ring with several options so I got to see what it would look like before purchasing one! I ended up with this band and it is literal perfection. Amazing quality. The diamonds are perfect. The fit is perfect. The customer service is outstanding. The packaging is safe and high end. You will not reg...

I’m absolutely in love! We had a wonderful experience designing my engagement ring with Taylor. She made the entire process simple and stress free. I couldn’t be more happy with the quality of my ring. We were able to thicken the hand and create a custom floral basket. I love how delicate FD’s milgrain is. I was nervous it would be too thick like I’ve seen in other jewelry stores but this is perfect. I’m thrilled with the result and I’ll be proud to wear it on my hand for the rest of my life.

I absolutely adore this ring! This was a push gift from my husband and it’s absolutely stunning! I’ve gotten so many compliments and i can’t explain how amazed i am at the amazing quality! I’m not gentle and I’ve hit this ring on many things (don’t recommend) and it’s so just as pretty and secure. Now I do have to work on not hitting it on so much so I don’t push the luck but I definitely am in love with this beautiful piece. Will recommending at a lot of people.

So, the final ring is not made yet. But I felt compelled to share my experience with Frank Darling so far. My boyfriend bought me a band first elsewhere and now I get my choice of diamond ring. We are older and not getting married. He was hesitant to buy this online, but this experience has changed his mind! Ana, in San Francisco, was our jewelry designer. Go Ana! Another great review! She sent me pictures of rings next to a band like mine. After many emails, a few try on rings, a virtual consul...
