Karl Karter Jewellery Striking shapes and exquisite stones are the founding of powerful pieces that cross over the boundaries of art and fashion.

Karl Karter demonstrates his skill and flawlessness of customary hand-made jewellery, with the innovative designs essential for contemporary bespoke designer jewellery. The strong shapes which have been methodically assembled are a reflection of his passion of the relationship between design and pattern creating modern pieces whilst using timeless shapes and styles derived from a range of inspiration from Mayan and Aztec ornaments to 1920s Art Deco chic

A Unique Engagement Ring That Breaks Tradition | Handmade in London
For those who refuse to follow tradition. đź’Ť
This custom handmade engagement ring features a striking emerald cut diamond, set within an abstract, sculptural design that challenges the conventional engagement ring. Crafted in solid 18ct yellow gold, the textured, hammered gold band adds an organic, tactile finish, giving the ring a distinctive character that cannot be mass-produced.
Designed and handcrafted by our goldsmiths in London, this is bespoke fine jewellery for someone who wants something truly individual — a unique diamond engagement ring that reflects personal style rather than following the crowd.
At London Rocks Jewellery, we specialise in bespoke engagement rings, handmade diamond rings and unconventional jewellery designs, bringing original ideas to life through traditional goldsmithing and exceptional craftsmanship.
Looking for an alternative to a traditional engagement ring? We create one-of-a-kind designs featuring emerald cut diamonds, sculptural settings, textured gold bands and unexpected details.
📍 Handmade in London’s Hatton Garden jewellery quarter.

Handmade from start to finish.
A custom-made gold chain paired with a detachable medallion, designed and crafted in our workshop.
Every link is carefully made by hand, creating a chain with its own character, weight and individuality. The detachable medallion adds another dimension, allowing the piece to be worn as one complete statement or styled in different ways.
This is what fine jewellery should be about: thoughtful design, traditional goldsmithing and the freedom to create something entirely your own.
No mass production. No off-the-shelf compromises. Just gold, craftsmanship and an idea brought to life.
Made by hand. Made to be yours.

Jewellery Artist | Inspired by Kazimir Malevich
My work as a multidisciplinary jewellery artist and goldsmith is heavily influenced by the language of modern art — particularly the radical simplicity and geometric abstraction of Kazimir Malevich.
Malevich’s ideas around shape, space, balance and reduction have had a lasting influence on the way I design jewellery. I’m fascinated by how a simple geometric form can become powerful when proportion, negative space and structure are carefully considered.
I bring that thinking into my own work at the bench, combining handmade goldsmithing, contemporary jewellery design and traditional craftsmanship to create pieces that sit somewhere between jewellery and small-scale sculpture.
With over 30 years of experience as a goldsmith, I’m interested in pushing jewellery beyond decoration — creating bespoke engagement rings, fine jewellery and one-of-a-kind pieces where architecture, modern art and craftsmanship meet.
For me, the inspiration might begin with a painting, a building or a geometric shape. The challenge is then translating that idea into something that can actually be worn, lived with and made by hand.

A bold take on the classic oval diamond solitaire.
This bespoke engagement ring features an oval cut diamond set into a substantial, chunky gold band, finished with a distinctive row of east-west box-set diamonds running along the shoulders. The combination of sculptural proportions, clean lines and hand-finished detailing gives this custom engagement ring a contemporary character while retaining the timeless appeal of a diamond solitaire.
Hand made in our London workshop, this is the kind of jewellery where the design, craftsmanship and proportions matter just as much as the diamond itself.
Designed and crafted by Karl Karter, an experienced London jeweller and goldsmith with over 30 years at the bench, creating bespoke fine jewellery and one-of-a-kind engagement rings in Hatton Garden, London.

A seriously chunky custom diamond ring, handmade in my London studio.
Carved from gold and sculpted by hand, this statement ring features dramatic knife-edge detailing flowing around the band, creating a bold architectural texture that catches the light from every angle.
At the centre sits a spectacular 2 carat round brilliant cut diamond, bringing the contrast of precision and sparkle to an otherwise raw, sculptural piece.
This is what bespoke jewellery is about — taking an idea and creating something that simply doesn’t exist anywhere else.
