Jewish engagement rings at Haejin Jewelry in Williamsburg Brooklyn

Engagement Rings for Jewish Couples in Brooklyn

The engagement ring and the wedding band serve different purposes in Jewish life. The ring under the chuppah is simple by design. Plain gold, no stones, no distractions. It represents something whole and unbroken. The engagement ring is a separate tradition entirely, a personal expression of love that you get to design however you want.

Why Haejin Jewelry

We Know the Traditions

Sue Kim understands the halachic requirements for the wedding band: plain gold, no stones, no engravings for the ceremony. She also knows that the engagement ring is your chance to choose something personal. Whether you want a classic solitaire or a custom design, she'll help you navigate both pieces with care.

Lab-Grown Diamonds, Ethical Values

Every diamond in our studio is lab-grown, IGI certified, and conflict-free. For couples who care about tikkun olam and ethical sourcing, lab-grown diamonds align with those values. Same brilliance, same durability, 40-60% less than mined stones.

In the Neighborhood

Our studio is in Williamsburg. You can walk here. No need to trek to the Diamond District or navigate a crowded showroom. It's a quiet, private space where you sit down with Sue and design your ring at your own pace.

Your Neighborhood Studio

Haejin Jewelry is in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, walking distance from much of the community. When you come in, it's just you and Sue Kim, the founder and designer. She'll help you with both pieces: the plain gold band for the ceremony and the diamond engagement ring. Every ring is made to order in recycled 14K or 18K gold, set with IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds. No sales floor, no pressure, no timeline. Walk-ins are welcome. Private appointments are available, including evenings by arrangement.

"I had no idea what I wanted but Sue helped guide and educate me. She encouraged me to take my time in my decision as it was a big one! I didn't see the final creation until I was proposed to and I was blown away. Truly exactly what I wanted. I am so happy to support a small business in my neighborhood."

"Unlike other places I visited, it was obvious that Sue really cared about finding what was best for us, and not just trying to sell us the most expensive ring possible. If you go with Haejin you absolutely will not regret it and you will receive something better than you ever could've imagined."

"She helped me create the ring of my dreams. Sue involved me in the whole process, so I got to see the stone in person before moving forward, and got a mockup of the design as it was being made. The result is unreal. Local, woman-owned, and realistic pricing...I can't say enough good things about Haejin Jewelry."

"She guided me, explained all the different options, we iterated together to find something which my partner would like and then she manufactured our dream ring for us. Sue is incredibly warm and kind and I can only recommend anyone to go to her. My fiancee immediately said yes and she thinks the ring is 'just perfect.'"

“The space itself reflects why women choose to shop for engagement rings in Brooklyn instead of Manhattan: it is calm and simple. There is time to ask questions, time to think, and it feels more like a thoughtful conversation than a performance.”

“At Haejin, every piece is designed, hand-finished, and quality-checked inside the Williamsburg studio. That kind of hands-on craftsmanship is not something you find scrolling an e-commerce site at midnight.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you understand the halachic requirements for a wedding ring?
Yes. The wedding band used under the chuppah must be a plain gold band with no stones and no engravings. Sue has made many ceremony bands that meet these requirements. She'll confirm the specifications with you and can discuss the tradition if you have questions.
Can you make a plain gold band for the ceremony?
Absolutely. We make plain gold wedding bands in 14K and 18K gold, in yellow, white, and rose. You can choose the width, profile (flat, comfort fit, half round), and finish. Even a simple band can be customized to feel personal. Our Band Atelier lets you configure every dimension.
What about the engagement ring? Is that separate?
Yes. In Jewish tradition, the engagement ring is a separate piece from the ceremony band. There are no halachic restrictions on the engagement ring, so you can design whatever speaks to you. Many couples choose a diamond ring that complements the plain gold band worn on the other hand.
What is the price range?
Lab-grown diamond engagement rings start at $1,450. Wedding bands start at $900. Many couples order both pieces together. Sue will work with your budget and make sure both rings feel intentional.
Do you work with both Orthodox and non-Orthodox couples?
Yes. Our studio welcomes everyone. Whether you follow strict halachic guidelines for the ceremony band or take a more relaxed approach, Sue will meet you where you are. The goal is always to make rings that feel right for your relationship and your life together.
