Dana Walden Jewelry ENGAGEMENT RING designers in NYC, specializing in ethically sourced diamonds and gems + custom design Ri.

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. All of our jewelry is handcrafted using recycled metals and conflict-free diamonds, resulting in the perfect marriage of beauty, quality, and ethics. We never sell cheaply made, mass produced jewelry; rather, we strive to create symbolic heirlooms that will endure generations. 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.

A ch*****ne diamond isn’t simply a ch*****ne diamond.

Color this nuanced requires a particular eye. We look for warmth without muddiness, depth without heaviness, and an undertone that feels distinctive now but will remain beautiful decades from now.

This 3+ carat Asscher is exactly that.

The Asscher has always been an exercise in restraint: step-cut facets, precise symmetry and clean, architectural lines. There’s nowhere for the stone to hide—which is exactly why we love it.

And paired with a naturally warm diamond, that simplicity allows the color to become the character.

We’ve been collecting unusual diamonds for years. Some are sourced specifically for clients; others end up in our personal collection because Rad is, at heart, a stone collector and occasionally finds one she simply cannot leave behind.

There are more diamond options available today than ever before. For us, luxury isn’t about having the most choices.

It’s about knowing which one is exceptional.

I have a problem with this ring.

Every time it comes out, I put it on.

15+ carats of cushion-cut bliss—and somehow, despite the large scale, it is extraordinarily beautiful & elegant.

A great cushion should have dimension and softness, but it should still light up. It should feel alive.

We work with extraordinary natural diamonds. We work with extraordinary lab-grown diamonds. And after years of sourcing, collecting and designing around important stones, we know what we want a diamond to look like before it ever makes its way into a Dana Walden piece.

We actually created a natural cushion in the 10-carat range last year with a remarkably similar presence.

This one just happens to be 15+ carats.

And yes, it’s currently in the atelier.

So if you’re coming in for an appointment and want to spend thirty seconds being completely unreasonable, please ask to try it on.

I certainly do.

A few of the rings we sent off into the world this past week 🤍

Different stones, different proportions, different personalities — which is exactly how we like it.

Some very, very good hands are about to get a lot more interesting.

Which one are you taking?

5.5 carats, casually.

We believe the most extraordinary jewelry should still become part of your life — worn on vacation, with a T-shirt, to dinner, and everywhere in between.

An elongated 5.5 carat diamond, simply set and made to be lived in.

This custom piece has always felt like the best of both worlds to me: the brilliance and permanence of a diamond, paired with the depth and color of an emerald.

Here, an emerald-cut diamond sits beside an emerald-cut emerald — same clean geometry, completely different energy. One bright and luminous, the other rich and saturated. Together, they feel bold without being loud, luxurious without feeling overly precious.

What I love most is how wearable it is. It’s a statement ring, but it still has that ease that lets you actually live in it. Chic, graphic, a little unexpected — and one of my favorite pieces we make.

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!

Our Sienna from conception to finished piece. This ring is full of wonder, with the most delicate details and deco inspired framework.

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.

This showed up in our FB memories today. What a lovely reminder that sunny days and sparkles are on the horizon ✨
