Engagement Rings for Every Couple
You already know. You've known for a while. Maybe it started the first time you caught yourself staring a little too long across a crowded room, or the morning you woke up and realized this was it. The ring is just the last piece of a decision your heart made a long time ago.
Haejin Jewelry. A woman-owned studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Lab-grown diamonds. Recycled gold. For the moment you've been carrying quietly.. As featured in Brownstoner and Plan with Laur
Why Haejin Jewelry
No Assumptions
We don't assume who's proposing, who's wearing what, or what your ring should look like. You tell us your story. We listen. Then we design something that's yours.
Lab-Grown Diamonds
Every diamond in our studio is lab-grown, IGI certified, and conflict-free. Same brilliance, same hardness, same fire. The only difference is the origin, and the price.
A Space That Feels Right
Our Williamsburg studio is a private, one-on-one space. No salespeople hovering, no gendered displays, no scripts. Just Sue, a bench, and the ring you've been imagining.
Your Space
Haejin Jewelry sits on a quiet block in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, one of the most LGBTQ-friendly neighborhoods in the country. When you walk in, it's just you and Sue Kim, the founder and designer. She'll ask what matters to you. She won't ask anything else. Every ring is made to order in recycled 14K or 18K gold, set with IGI-certified lab-grown diamonds. No pressure, no timeline, no judgment. Walk-ins are welcome. Private appointments are available.
How to Design Your Ring
Every ring at Haejin Jewelry is made to order. There is no inventory to browse, no display case to lean over. You design something that exists nowhere else in the world.
1. Explore
Start with our online Ring Builder to browse settings, shapes, and metals. Or visit the Custom Design page to begin something entirely your own.
2. Meet Sue
Walk in or book a private appointment at our Williamsburg studio. Sue sits with you, learns what matters to you, and walks you through diamonds, metals, and settings at your pace. No assumptions about who is buying or who is wearing. Just a conversation about what you want.
3. Create
Sue handles the design and production personally. 3D CAD modeling, revisions until every detail is right, and made-to-order production in recycled gold with an IGI-certified lab-grown diamond. Your ring is finished in 2 to 3 weeks.
Engagement Rings
Every ring is made to order in our Brooklyn studio. Your diamond, your metal, your size. Nothing pulled from a display case.
Wedding Bands
Or design your own. Width, profile, metal, texture, engraving. 9 dimensions, infinite combinations.
Rings for Two
There is no template for your relationship. There should not be one for your rings. These are the questions couples ask Sue most.
Why Couples Choose Haejin Jewelry
There are a lot of places to buy an engagement ring in New York. Department stores with fluorescent lighting. Chain jewelers where the salesperson works on commission and calls every couple bride and groom. Online retailers where you never see the ring until it arrives in a box. Haejin Jewelry is none of those things. We are a woman-owned studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. No gendered displays. No assumptions about who is buying for whom. Our founder, Sue Kim, trained on 47th Street and spent six years learning from the best diamantaires in the Diamond District before opening her own studio. She works directly with every client. There is no sales team, no call center, no script. When you email us, Sue responds. When you visit, Sue is the one sitting across from you with a loupe and a quiet room. Couples come to Haejin because they want someone who listens before she designs. Someone who will show them the diamond under a microscope before it is set. Someone who treats the ring as seriously as the moment it represents.
The Same Diamond. A Different Origin.
A lab-grown diamond is not a simulated diamond. It is a real diamond. Same carbon lattice, same Mohs 10 hardness, same fire under restaurant lighting. The only difference is origin. One came out of the earth. Yours was grown in a chamber that recreates the conditions 100 miles below the surface. Sue will show you the stone under a microscope before it is set. You will not be able to tell the difference. Neither will anyone else.

What Our Clients Say
"Personal care from an expert jeweler. Sue reached out to me directly, helped me design the ring, helped me pick out a diamond, and negotiated on my behalf. I got a great deal for the size and quality of diamond and it's so beautiful. Honestly couldn't be happier."
"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.'"
"From the very beginning Sue made the entire experience feel so easy, thoughtful, and personal. She found the most incredible antique elongated cushion stone. Truly the ring I had been searching for my whole life, even in my dreams!! I truly cannot recommend Haejin enough."
