Rings can be ordered online by visiting the online shop or by post by using the ring order form. If you are wanting to order members rings you must be signed in in order to access them.

Apologies, due to a small number of members actions we will only ship items to members when funds are confirmed as cleared.
Please note – if you require rings quickly then the fastest payment method is debit card.
