During the holiday season I completed an alternating diamond and sapphire wedding set. The rings were made in platinum and featured both lab-grown diamonds and lab-grown sapphires.
The really cool thing about this project was that we used the clients original half carat diamond for the center stone. As a goldsmith, I’ve had plenty of opportunities to redesign rings using existing materials.
As a result, clients can get something new that they love without completely sacrificing the essence of the original ring!
The Wedding Band
The wedding band features alternating diamonds and sapphires. The band was made with a twist design. Additionally, one side of the twist has the alternating stones and the other side is just the high polished platinum.
Platinum is an excellent choice for wedding rings because it holds up very well over time. It’s also perfect for those with sensitive skin as platinum is truly hypoallergenic.
The Engagement Ring
The engagement ring design was make with a 3 stone look for the center. The center stone is the original diamond from the client, and the lab-grown accent sapphires sit on each side.
Further down the sides of the ring we have the same twisting band with stones on one side. We decided against doing alternating diamonds and sapphires in this portion as to let the focus remain on the 3 stone center.
Custom Made Wedding Set
The great thing about custom jewelry is we are able to use any of your existing jewelry to create something new and beautiful. For example, if your original wedding set was made in yellow gold but you now want it in white gold, the set can be created again but this time in a different color!
In addition, if you wanted to redesign your wedding set but use the original materials, that is an option too! For all custom inquiries, just contact us!
