Imagined by you,
Created by us
In a world shaped by mass production, we remain devoted to the rare and refined — to the art of jewellery made by hand, and made with heart.
At Peter Gilder, each piece begins as a story — a moment, a memory, a feeling — brought to life in our Constantia studio by a team of master goldsmiths and designers. Together with you, we create one-of-a-kind pieces that honour your vision and celebrate life’s most meaningful milestones.
Crafted with precision, guided by passion, and finished to perfection — our jewellery is made not simply to adorn, but to endure. A reflection of individuality. A celebration of legacy.
This is the romance of true craftsmanship.
This is Handmade in Constantia.
HANDMADE STORY
From Royal Heirloom to Modern Love Story
Originally belonging to the Russian Royal Family and passed down through generations, this antique emerald and diamond pendant held deep personal significance. At Peter Gilder, we were entrusted with reimagining this heirloom into two exquisite new creations: a timeless cluster engagement ring and an elegant dress ring, each crafted to honour its past while embracing its future. The original diamonds were thoughtfully reconfigured around a central stone to form the engagement ring. The remaining stones, including the striking emerald, found their place in a one-of-a-kind statement piece. Both rings were expertly handcrafted in platinum, right here in our Constantia studio, by one of our most experienced goldsmiths.
A legacy preserved. A love story continued.

Asking for a friend…
Choosing an engagement ring especially for the first time can feel daunting. That’s why personal referrals and trust mean everything.
For this antique-inspired sapphire and diamond ring, the client came to us with a clear vision and full confidence, even from overseas. Through thoughtful texts, video updates, and a shared appreciation for detail, we brought their idea to life.
The result?
She said yes.
And she loved the ring.

HANDMADE STORY
Size Does Matter
The brief was simple: make it bold, make it brilliant, and don’t hold back.
Inspired by a reference image, this striking design came to life with a pear-shaped diamond at its centre, framed by a double halo and set on a triple shank. Intricate side engraving adds a layer of detail that makes this piece truly one of a kind.
Created for a client who embraces individuality and isn’t afraid to shine, this ring is a celebration of self-expression, confidence, and unapologetic glamour.
As for where to wear it? Everywhere.

HANDMADE STORY
Toi et Moi
A love story told in two stones.
Inspired by the now-iconic engagement ring worn by Megan Fox, this bespoke piece was designed as a surprise, personal and deeply symbolic.
The client wanted something meaningful. We began with the concept of “Toi et Moi,” the French phrase for “You and Me,” and used it as a canvas to bring their story to life. Two gemstones, representing their birth months April and May were carefully selected and set side by side, a pairing as beautiful as it is intentional.
Proportion, harmony, and the finest quality were essential to create a ring that felt both modern and timeless.
Toi et Moi rings have become a symbol of deep connection, romance, and individuality. This one captures it all.
