Making Of: Herstellung von RETINA®-Schmuck in unserer Basler Werkstatt

SEITE IM AUFBAU

Wir erschaffen Schmuckstücke, die es nur ein einziges Mal gibt – eine Verbindung aus Wissenschaft und Goldschmiede-Kunst, die Ihre persönliche Signatur in ein zeitloses Juwel verwandelt.

Personalisierter Schmuck so individuell wie ein Fingerabdruck – für echte Verbundenheit

One eye. One ring. One story: There Is Only One

Every love story is unique. Your wedding rings should be too. At Retina® we transform the hidden pattern of your retina into a timeless design, turning your most personal feature into the ultimate symbol of unity and devotion.

Unlike mass-produced rings, a Retina® wedding ring carries your identity. Each design is born from the delicate structure of your retina, invisible to the world yet unmistakably yours. It becomes a ring that doesn’t just shine — it connects, expresses, and remembers.

One eye. One ring. One story: There Is Only One

Your Retina® Signature, the Soul of the Most Personal Rings

Hidden within your eyes lies a pattern that exists only once in the world. We transform this delicate signature into wedding rings that are as intimate, unique, and timeless as the love you share.

How We Do It

01 Consultation

Book a personal consultation, online or in our Basel atelier. We take the time to understand your wishes, your style and your story. Visiting our atelier is a beautiful experience – but not a requirement. Your Retina can be scanned by a local partner, and your design journey can also take place entirely via video call.

Design

Your personal Retina® signature, styled to your exact preference, is transformed into a lifelike 3D rendering, offering a captivating first glimpse of the jewel that will soon become exclusively yours forever.

03 Crafting

Your approved design is brought to life by our goldsmiths with precision, patience, and devotion. Within a few weeks, your one-of-a-kind creation is in your hands, ready to wear or to gift from the heart.

Your personalized 3D visualization

Before production even begins, your wedding rings start to come alive. Through our detailed 3D visualization, you can explore every element of your design — from refined surface textures and sparkling gemstones to engravings and delicate finishes. This allows you to perfect your rings exactly as you imagine them, before they are transformed into timeless masterpieces in precious metal.

Combine your own style here:

01 Select your precious metal

Select the precious metal that reflects your style — from the warmth of yellow or rose gold in various shades to the timeless sophistication of platinum. Your wedding rings need not be identical; many couples choose different materials, united by the shared Retina® pattern that links both rings into a perfect whole.

02 Stone options

Whether you desire a pure, minimalist design or the brilliance of diamonds, emeralds, and other precious stones, we bring your vision to life with masterful craftsmanship. Each option is previewed in a detailed 3D visualization, allowing you to see your ring before it is created. Every choice you make turns your Retina® wedding ring into a true reflection of your love and individuality.

03 Select your pattern style

“Cameo”-Style:

Beautifully polished Retina lines on a matte background bring your personalized pattern to life in a fascinating, subtle, and elegant relief.

“Verso” style:

Distinctive engraved Retina lines for a powerful, high-contrast look.

04 Select your border style

“Ordo”-Style:

Straight, parallel edges – classic, clear, timeless. Inspired by traditional wedding ring designs.

“Mare”-Style:

Organic and irregular, shaped by the natural flow of your retina pattern – perfect for adding a personal touch.

Lifetime service & quality promise

We stand behind the quality and meaning of every Retina® creation, caring for your jewelry with the same devotion that went into crafting it.

As part of our lifelong promise, we offer free cleaning and refreshing to keep your piece as brilliant as the day it was made.

Whether in gold or platinum, adorned with gemstones or kept pure, your personal piece deserves not just admiration, but lasting attention — for you, and for all it represents.

Your Love, Made Visible

Your love is unique, and your rings should be too. Beauty alone is not enough — true meaning is what makes them unforgettable.

Each Retina® wedding ring carries more than just your names; it holds the hidden signature of your eye, a natural pattern that no one else in the world shares. When your Retina patterns merge, they create a visible symbol of the invisible bond between you — a promise as personal as your love itself.

At RETINA®, jewelry becomes more than an accessory. It becomes the story of your relationship, a timeless declaration of love shaped into precious metal. Every piece reflects who you are, what you share, and the journey you continue together.

There is only one. Which one will be yours?
