A couple of pretty pendants, one of which was designed by our littlest team member, 7yo Miles Chin.

The organic gold pendant w twists and turns was created using a a vine he found in Prospect Park a few months ago. He twisted it into a ring shape and asked us to fabricate a replica pendant and ring in yellow gold. He showed Dana where to add tiny diamond details.

We’ll post a picture of the ring soon!

This light show happened while driving down the 1-95. It really does speak to how remarkable a beautifully cut diamond can be when you least expect it.

The many shades of blue sapphire 💙

Every sapphire ring starts with custom sourcing. We consider your aesthetic preferences, budget and how your stone will harmonize with your setting, as we curate a selection of sapphires for you to select from.

The first time Beyoncé bought our jewelry at !

Such a crazy morning when Rad found out that and her stylist bought a bunch of pieces from their jewelry collection, which used to be housed at BG. This was before Dana and Rad decided to open their own studio and work with clients directly.

Rad immediately searched for recent pics of Bey out and about in the city, until she landed on this gem! She’s wearing a necklace and ring that Dana designed & made with his own hands.

This was before the 5th ave studio, private workshop, and clients from all around the world. They were just a couple of kids doing what they loved. And they kinda still are ❤️

Our Story

For more than a decade, Dana Walden Chin has designed engagement rings for people who embrace art and visual culture, but who also find importance in knowing their ring’s designer. At Dana Walden Bridal, we pride ourselves on designing pieces that go beyond adornment; our engagement rings are elevated to art, through the merging of client and artisan.

Our studio is centrally located on Fifth Avenue in NYC, just a couple of blocks away from the Empire State Building. We are appointment-only, so as to ensure that each client has a one-on-one experience. Dana will chat with you about your ideas and walk you through our environmentally/socially responsible design practices. You can relax as you try on sparkly rings from our signature and vintage collections. And if you’d prefer a custom creation, Dana will explain our process, showing you his personal sketches and hand-crafted models along the way.

Dana’s wife, Rad, is the company’s Creative Director. She is jokingly called the ‘Aesthetic Police’ by those who know her well, and for good reason -- Rad has an ireverant passion for design and finalizes every sketch and model before it gets produced. She is also responsible for sourcing and curating DWB’s collection of vintage engagement rings, acquired from her network of dealers from across the globe.

Dana and Rad’s work has received accolades from Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, Lucky, and New York Magazine's Wedding Guide. In addition to designing jewelry for major commercials and editorials, the duo has had the honor of collaborating with some of fashion's top style makers, including Geren Ford and Doo. Ri.
