THE CUSTOM PROCESS
1- It all begins with a conversation
Every custom piece starts with an easy,
personal discussion about what you envision.
It begins with a simple conversation
by email, text, or a live Zoom meeting.
During our chat, I’ll explain how my 45 years of experience in the diamond and jewelry industry allow me to create the design of your choice, crafted with superior materials, meticulous precision, and at values my competitors simply can’t match.
I’ll also provide you with a detailed, easy-to-understand tutorial on diamond grading, so you’ll know exactly what to look for and why the quality I offer stands apart from the rest.
You’ll quickly see how working directly with the source eliminates unnecessary retail markups while giving you access to true wholesale quality and expertise.
Send inspiration photos, a quick sketch, or even a screenshot from your phone and tell me what you love about it and what you’d like to change.
From there, we’ll explore:
• Design direction (classic, modern, vintage, ornate, or minimalist)
• Center stone preferences (shape, size, or carat target—lab-grown or natural)
• Metal and color options (14k,18k, Platinum, white, yellow, rose, or two-tone combinations)
• Your ring size, timeline, and ideal budget range
Not sure about the details yet?
That’s perfectly fine—I’ll guide you step-by-step and
make the entire process simple, transparent, and enjoyable.
We’ll cover:
• Design direction (classic, modern, vintage, ornate, minimalist)
• Center stone preferences (shape, dimensions or carat target; lab-grown or natural)
• Metal & color (white, yellow, rose, or two-tone combinations)
• Your ring size, timeline, and ideal budget range
2) Design & Stones—Perfected for You
We refine the look around how you (or your partner) will wear it:
Daily comfort, profile height, prong style (single or pointed claw), and any matching-band plans.
I’ll suggest smart ways to modify an inspiration photo, via thinner/thicker shank, changing the head, switching the halo, updating the gallery or creating your design in a two-tone option — so it feels truly yours.
3) CAD Renders & Transparent Quote
I create a professional 3D CAD model and send you realistic renders from multiple angles. You’ll see proportions, stone layout, and how a two-tone design plays with light.
We adjust until it’s perfect- together!!!
Once approved,
I will provide a clear,
value-forward quote no surprises
4) Crafting: Print, Cast, Set, Finish
Your design moves into production:
• Precision 3D print and premium metal casting
• Expert hand-setting of diamonds/gemstones
• Careful finishing, polishing, and quality checks
