Always Made, Never Mined

Moissanite and Lab Diamonds

Moissanite is a gemstone born from the stars. It was first discovered in 1893 by a French scientist named Henri Moissan, who later won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. He discovered microscopic particles in a crater created by a meteorite that fell to earth.

Lab-grown diamonds are identical to their natural counterparts in every way, except that they are grown in a lab from a diamond seed instead of being mined from the earth. Both lab-grown diamonds and mined diamonds are comprised of pure carbon and have the exact same physical properties. Lab-grown diamonds come at a 20%-30% lower cost then that of a mined diamond making it a much more desirable purchase from a consumer standpoint.

WHO IS RING COME TRUE?

OUR BRAND STORY

We specialize in making the finest quality, fully customizable jewelry pieces, using recycled gold and sustainable materials to complement our stunning moissanite and lab grown diamond gemstones.

Our mission is to give customers the confidence to break through societal barriers with a product that will stand the test of time, at a price they can comfortably afford.

"Having worked for years in the wedding industry prior to establishing Ring Come True, I didn’t share the desire, like most young women, to have a big expensive wedding and a diamond ring that costs a small fortune. I had an acute understanding of the societal pressure placed on individuals to purchase and receive diamonds as a symbol of love and status, however, I did not buy into the status quo hype. In my pursuit to find something that made more sense financially, versus what society deems as 'socially acceptable', I began looking into the specifics and costs of purchasing a more affordable engagement ring. My investigation led me to Moissanite and in-turn Lab Grown Diamonds," - Shir Andrews, Founder.

Ring Come True was the first of its kind in Canada, a jewellery business that solely focused on using Moissanite as the centerpiece to the tradition of engagement rings. “I’m proud to be able to provide couples with the ring of their dreams at a fraction of the cost to that of a mined diamond equivalent. An engagement ring is meant to symbolize love and commitment regardless of what materials it is made from." Not only are we able to provide the same luxurious, high quality pieces of jewellery that any high end diamond retailer would produce, we also offer a highly personalized and unique no-pressure experience by allowing full customizability for each of our made-to-order pieces so that each client can feel unique and special at this momentous time in their lives.
