Beginning with a single engagement ring, nicknamed The Victoria, J.R. Wood & Sons launched ArtCarved in 1850. The first seamless weddings rings and illustrated catalogue are just some of the remarkable history that surrounds the brand. But the beauty behind the story is that they are still capturing the hearts of women – and men – everywhere with their gorgeous, uniquely carved wedding ring designs.

Bridal
ArtCarved’s bridal selection is vast and versatile. Not only can you find engagement rings but you’ll be able to find wedding bands for both the bride and groom that don unique, intricate detailing. And with such a niche, you know you’re getting a design that isn’t saturated throughout the market. Instead, you’ll be receiving a ring with both history and personalization as well.
Class Rings
Wedding days aren’t the only important moments that ArtCarved has continued to help celebrate though. Class rings highlight a memory of both growth and accomplishment so topping that off with a unique piece of jewelry is a bonus. And it’s a bonus that students can invest in a ring that sports the same kind of quality and refinement that you’d expect a bridal piece to have.
Brand History
With over 150 years of history and innovation throughout the wedding world, ArtCarved has become a premier designer for engagement rings and wedding bands. Starting with a single engagement ring that had women swooning, The Victoria, is what began a beautiful success story.
It all started in Brooklyn, New York. J.R. Wood & Sons went on to create the first seamless wedding rings along with the first illustrated catalogue for their collection. But it wasn’t until the 1920’s that their famous “carved” designs would hit the scene. And then, in 1950, Nicky Hilton – found of Hilton Hotels – proposed to Elizabeth Taylor with an ArtCarved engagement ring design.
All of these small snippets of success only give a short glimpse into the ladder-climbing and trailblazing of the company. Their innovation put them on a trajectory to become a lead designer and visionary for the wedding market, eventually pushing them into creating designs for other proud moments of one’s life such as graduation with its introduction of class rings.
