    We come from a family of jewelers who have worked and thrived in the gemstone & jewelry business since 1973, and we bring this business experience with us into all aspects of what we do.

    We have been crafting fine engagement rings from our studio in the heart of NYC since 2002. We proudly remain a small, family-owned business and uphold strict standards in who we choose to do business with―in particular, how we source our metals (recycled) and gemstones (conflict-free and lab created). By working with a trusted network of diamond suppliers, we can also ensure that our designs are set with the best stones. We also proudly donate a portion of our proceeds to charities including Earthworks and Cool Effect.

    From our start in the early aughts, we've had a wild ride―including a collaboration with Doo.ri Chung for her Spring 2005 Runway show, to having our pieces worn by celebrities including Beyonce, Rashida Jones, Debra Messing, Keri Hilson, and Rachel Ray. And over the last 10 years, our jewelry has received accolades from a wide range of publications including Harper's Bazaar, Lucky, WWD, Refinery29 and New York Magazine.

    But the core of our mission and our story remains―we continue to seek inspiration in this colorful city (New York!) that surrounds us. We make custom engagement rings and wedding bands that are inspired by sculpture, architecture, organic shapes, and most of all, the personal stories we hear from our clients every day.

    We can't wait to hear from you – contact us to get started!

    How I cater to offbeat weddings

    In NYC—set quietly in a nook—is a studio full of love stories that waits to tell your tale. Follow the inspirations that drive these two lovers in their passion for making love visible to the world.
    At Ken & Dana Design, we are dedicated to creating sculptural jewelry with an emphasis on symbolism and fine craftsmanship. We maintain a holistic approach to our business to ensure that each piece is environmentally friendly, socially responsible, and incredibly unique. We love to incorporate inspiration from eras gone by, the natural world, as well as our clients
    We specialize in custom engagement rings, so that no two rings are identical (read more about our custom design process here).  Part of creating meaningful jewelry is the connection we have with our clients. Though we have a studio in NYC, we have worked with clients from all over the world and are efficient at working remotely as well as in-person.
    No one story is the same and our job is to help you figure out the best way to bring your ideas to life in a way that is both aesthetically pleasing and meaningful to you. We recognize that no two relationships are the same, and only by engaging you throughout the creation process are we able to craft a truly unique product that you can call your own.

    My partner and I decided it was time to get a ring to signify our commitment to each other. He was not into all of the craziness around engagement rings, but he found Ken and Dana online and liked what they stood for— recycled metals, conflict-free everything. It was important to me to use the stone my Dad used to propose to my mom since he passed, so we brought that along. Everything about the experience we had was easy. You walk into their showroom and you feel like you’re walking into someone’s well-furnished brownstone. Within 20 minutes, we had narrowed down the setting I liked- the Rachael- in rose gold, with my Mom’s emerald. Even my partner had a nice time! We got engaged last night and I couldn’t be happier with the result. We also both can’t wait to go back for our bands. Thanks so much! - Chelsea A.
