At Lena Cohen, we work exclusively with 18k solid gold—crafted from 75% pure gold, alloyed with other fine metals for added strength, resilience, and enduring beauty. This is the sweet spot in fine jewellery: luxurious in look and feel, but strong enough for daily wear.
Unlike 9k gold, which contains just 37.5% pure gold and often lacks depth of colour or long-term durability, 18k gold retains its rich tone and brilliance for years. And while 24k gold is 100% pure, it’s simply too soft for practical, everyday jewellery. 18k offers the perfect balance—refined, wearable, and lasting.
Diamonds
Each of our diamonds is hand selected for brilliance, clarity and ethical integrity. Our jewellery is made in solid 18k gold and set with natural diamonds. Diamond sizes and total carat weights vary by design and are listed on the individual product page where relevant. For bespoke or made to order pieces with larger diamonds, centre stones or matched pairs, the key diamond details are confirmed before production.
We are proud to make our jewellery by hand in London, using materials sourced through trusted UK suppliers. This helps us maintain consistent quality, support local goldsmithing heritage and keep our production process close, considered and carefully controlled.
We are a family run business that values personalized client service.
When you contact us, you will be speaking directly to a member of our team who is dedicated to providing a meaningful interaction and top-tier support, even during busy times.
