You only get engaged once in your life (hopefully) and the ring is a symbol of your union and has been traditionally presented to the bride-to-be for thousands of years. Trends come and go, we know, yet one fashion that doesn’t seem to be going away is customised engagement rings; there are a few reasons for this, which we dive into in this article.
Personalisation
We can see personalisation everywhere we look – on clothing, towels, wallets and even cars that are designed for the driver. There is no better occasion for customised jewellery than an engagement and when you look into the eyes of your soulmate, you can be sure that the ring is truly a one-off.
If she has a special thing for emeralds, they can be combined with diamonds and no one knows her like you. Talk to a custom jeweller about what they have in their unique emerald ring design collection. Create a stunning ring from scratch, which will be hand-crafted by an expert.
Who Says A Man Can’t Wear An Engagement Ring?
Traditions are being thrown out of the window as new generations demand a unique slant on almost everything and when you consider that hand-made jewellery is no more costly than choosing a piece from the jewellery store, it’s no wonder custom jewellers are busy! Quite a few men wear a gold band to signify they are in a serious relationship, and matching engagement rings are becoming a thing.
Affordability
There was a time when commissioning jewellery was only for the rich and famous; fast forward to today, we have state of the art technology and a skilled jeweller can create a masterpiece based on your concept of the perfect engagement ring. Why not talk to your partner about having the ring(s) made? You can do a Google search for custom jewellers near your area and arrange a Zoom call with the jeweller to discuss options and costs.
One Of A Kind
Like anything personalised, there isn’t another ring in the universe that is identical to the one on your third finger and that’s kind of a nice feeling; your love is unique, the ring should be too. The process of designing the ring is smooth, thanks to the experienced jeweller who knows how to take the client’s concept and turn it into reality.
Computer Imaging
You start with a green screen, then add a band, a setting for the gemstones and the type of metal to be used. With your input, the jeweller can build the ring and making small alterations is easy. Finally, the design is complete and the next stage is acquiring the loose gemstones. The expert has access to the wholesale market. When selecting a central diamond, for example, the cut greatly impacts the sparkle factor and only a jeweller can look at a raw, uncut stone and know what it will look like with a Brilliant Round or Emperor cut.
Why don’t you and your soulmate explore the options for hand-made engagement rings? Set aside a budget and the professional can work to that. There’s never been a better time to think about personalised solutions for an engagement ring.
