Could you design your own White Gold Emerald Cut Diamond Engagement Ring ? That is exactly what this customer did. By trade a Cad/Cam Engineer, he came in sporting a powerful laptop and a fully fleshed out design. After some input from us, the design was tweaked and then 3D printed. We then cast the ring and set the amazing looking emerald cut diamond that we supplied. If you have the chops on a computer, you could save a bit of money by designing your very own White Gold Emerald Cut Diamond Engagement Ring.

She collaborated with us via email until we reached a consensus on the design. The resulting Prasiolite Diamond White and Yellow Gold Ring with Bands is stunning.

Pink Princess Cut Sapphire Sterling Silver Dome Ring

Katie and Lee — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 01:52:03 +0000

This Pink Princess Cut Sapphire Sterling Silver Dome Ring was carved from wax in our jewelry store, Custom. It is the base to what ended up being a terraced ring , set with black diamonds that we made for our showroom a couple months ago. There is a mold of the ring, so we decided to combine this one with some 2mm pink sapphires we had in the showcase. A sharpie was used to randomly mark where each stone would go. A drill bit slightly smaller that the size of the pink sapphires was then used to make a hole at each of the marked locations. Then using a square needle file, each seat for each stone was carefully filed away to match the particular sapphire that would reside in that spot. Once the stones sit perfectly in their new homes, a burnishing tool is used to push the silver onto the edges of the pink sapphires. Finally, a course brushed finish was applied to complete the Pink Sapphire Sterling Silver Dome Ring.

Hand Engraved Scroll-Work 14kt Yellow Gold Engagement Ring

Katie and Lee — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 22:59:22 +0000

For this Hand Engraved Scroll-Work 14kt Yellow Gold Engagement Ring, the last of the photos below shows a sketch the customer brought to us. We love it when customers know exactly what they want. It makes us very happy to be able to translate drawings or ideas into to reality. With that sketch as a guide, we turned to the computer to render the idea in 3D. Once everything was perfect, the computer model was sent to a 3D printer. There, it was brought into reality as a wax model. That model was cast in 14k yellow gold, polished, and set with the stones. The entire piece was then hand engraved, resulting in the the stunning engagement ring pictured. The recipient said “Yes”. Another happy customer, and new owner of a Hand Engraved Scroll-Work 14kt Yellow Gold Engagement Ring.

Custom Fabricated Titanium Engagement Ring

Katie and Lee — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 15:39:03 +0000

This Custom Fabricated Titanium Engagement Ring ring represents another example of what sets Custom apart from our competition. Our willingness and ability to work with materials that other stores won’t touch, make us the exception in Charlotte, NC. The customer for this project has a materials and design background, and came to us with what he wanted very clearly laid out. Titanium is a purposeful material. It’s light, strong, and non allergenic. Working with it requires a new set of of skills and experiences which makes it even more appealing to us.

This ring was fabricated , using saws, drills, files, and gravers, from an 8mm wide solid titanium wedding band, into the form you see below. It is set with a round sapphire and surrounded by a sterling silver bezel. The inside of the ring is hand engraved with a section of a topographical map. It represents a place that holds meaning for the couple, and because of the nature of the metal that it is engraved into, will never fade. As you can imagine, she said Yes! Congratulations guys. Custom gold, silver, and platinum jewelry, even Custom Fabricated Titanium Engagement Rings, we do it all.
