which is why now might be the best time to plan your future ring...

 

Gold has officially reached its highest price in history - over £3,000 ($4,000) per ounce and is expected to climb to £3,700 ($4900) by the end of 2026.

It’s a milestone that reflects global uncertainty, shifting markets, and the timeless trust people continue to place in this metal.

For jewellers like us, it reshapes the landscape. The cost of materials rises and with it, the importance of thoughtful design, honest pricing, and craftsmanship built to last.

At Lelya, our response is simple:
to continue creating pieces that are made to last, and made with integrity.

We work exclusively with solid gold, never plating or vermeil, because fine jewellery should be heirloom-worthy. Each piece is crafted to order, minimising waste and ensuring that nothing is made without meaning.

As gold prices reach record levels, we’ll be reviewing our pricing in the coming weeks to reflect new material costs. If you’ve been considering a piece, now is a good time, our current pricing will remain in place for a short while longer.

For custom designs, quotes will now remain valid for two weeks, as gold rates continue to fluctuate more rapidly than before.

We know this news may bring mixed feelings, but our values remain unchanged.
And that’s exactly why, to help our customers plan with confidence, we’re introducing something new.
