The solitaire classic
A single diamond on a fine band: the timeless form of the proposal ring. Prong, bezel or tension setting, entirely to your taste.
Our own goldsmithery
A proposal is a moment you keep for life — and the ring you hold in that moment should be equal to it. At Zerin Gold in Freiburg we design and craft engagement rings in our own atelier, from the classic solitaire to a wholly personal commission. You choose the stone, the setting and the metal; we realise it with goldsmith precision.
The diamond is at the heart of it. We select it with you by the four Cs — carat, colour, clarity and cut — and work only with certified stones. That way you know exactly what you are buying and can weigh quality against budget calmly, with no pressure and no sales talk.
If the proposal is still a secret, we advise you discreetly — on your own if you wish, with samples for sizing and a solution for when the ring size can only be confirmed later. And when the day comes, we match the engagement ring beautifully to your wedding bands.
Our engagement rings
A single diamond on a fine band: the timeless form of the proposal ring. Prong, bezel or tension setting, entirely to your taste.
We choose the stone together by carat, colour, clarity and cut — always certified, so quality and price stay transparent.
14k and 18k gold in white, yellow and rose, or platinum 950 — we recommend the metal that flatters both stone and skin tone.
From first sketch to finished ring, everything is made in our atelier in Freiburg — not a catalogue piece, but your ring.
On request we advise you alone and in confidence, help with the ring size and find a way to keep the surprise intact.
Later we complete the engagement ring with matching wedding bands — a harmonious set from one pair of hands.
Trust & quality
Every engagement ring is made in our own atelier — we set and polish ourselves, keeping full control over quality and timing. We buy diamonds only with certification and show you the certificate openly.
We advise honestly on budget. An impressive proposal ring need not be the most expensive piece in the window — what matters is the choice of stone, its proportion and a setting that shows the diamond at its best. We discuss the price range transparently, in line with the daily gold price.
As a family-run shop in central Freiburg, we stand behind every commission with our name. We guarantee our own work and offer lifelong service — cleaning, refurbishing and resizing, even years later.
For the whole region
Anyone planning a proposal in Freiburg will find the right ring at Zerin Gold. Customers come to our atelier in the city centre from every district as well as from Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald and the Emmendingen district.
Arrange an appointment for a personal, discreet consultation — and gladly outside the usual hours, so the proposal stays a surprise.

Common questions
Everything about the diamond, the commission, sizing and price.
The four Cs are carat (weight), colour, clarity and cut. Together they determine how a diamond sparkles — and its price. We explain each factor and help you choose the stone that fits your budget.
It is often the biggest worry — and almost always solvable. An existing ring, a discreet hint from friends, or a later adjustment all help. We can resize the ring afterwards with no trouble if the fit isn't perfect.
Ideally allow 3 to 5 weeks. If the proposal is already near, we can almost always find a solution — simply talk to us early.
The price depends mainly on the diamond (the 4Cs) along with the metal and setting. We work transparently and in line with the daily gold price, and find a solution for nearly any budget — from a discreet solitaire to a special stone.
Yes. On request we match engagement and wedding rings exactly, so they sit perfectly side by side — a harmonious set from our atelier.
