From Your Photos to a Perfect Twin

Every My Mirroring replica starts with one thing: your original ring. We don't use generic templates or stock designs — we study your photos and recreate every detail by hand. Here's exactly how the process works.

Step 1: Submit Your Photos

Start by uploading clear photos of your original engagement ring from multiple angles — top, side, and inside the band. The more detail we can see, the more accurate your custom made engagement ring replica will be. We look at:

  • The setting style (solitaire, halo, pavé, bezel, etc.)
  • The stone shape and size
  • The band profile and width
  • Any engravings or unique details
  • The metal color and finish

Step 2: Choose Your Metal and Stone

Once we've studied your ring, you choose the materials for your replica. Every Mirroring is built on a sterling silver 925 base, finished in the tone that matches your original:

  • Silver 925 — unplated, lightweight and durable
  • White Gold Plated — a cool, bright, elegant finish for platinum and white gold originals
  • Yellow Gold Plated — a warm, classic look
  • Rose Gold Plated — a romantic blush tone
  • Two Tone — for rings that combine contrasting metals
  • Solid Gold — 9k, 10k, 14k or 18k solid gold, quoted separately, for a replica with lasting value

For stones, we offer cubic zirconia, moissanite, lab diamond, and colored stones — each matched to the shape and size of your original.

Step 3: CAD Design and Your Approval

Before anything is made, we create a CAD design — a detailed 3D drawing of your replica — and send it to you to review. You can request revisions until it's right. Nothing goes into production until you approve the design, so there are no surprises when your ring arrives.

Step 4: Handcrafted Recreation

Our craftspeople use your approved design and your photos as a precise reference to build your replica from scratch. Every curve, prong, and proportion is carefully matched. This isn't a mass-produced copy — it's a bespoke recreation made specifically for your ring.

Step 5: Quality Check and Delivery

Before your replica leaves our workshop, it goes through a thorough quality check to ensure it meets our standards for accuracy and finish. Then it's carefully packaged and shipped to you.

The Result: A Ring Only You Can Tell Apart

The goal of every My Mirroring replica is simple: a custom ring recreation so faithful to your original that only you know the difference. Wear it on your honeymoon, your morning run, your beach holiday — anywhere you'd rather not risk your real ring.
