This is a simple job that Jennifer and Ian started. So simple but so hard. Getting the spacing between the stones just right so you can see the bright wall around each stone. I did 5 layouts before I got the right balance. The pattern left one stone out so we set it in the bottom as a fetish stone. This is one that exceeded my expectations.

Here we had several heirloom diamonds. We added this amazing sapphire (purple changes to pink) and made a right hand ring for the customer. I worked on this design for hours on end trying to use all of the customers stones in a graceful way. It took three version of how to hold the smaller stones. Curves bezzels and prongs. We finally settled on the prongs that almost disapear. I think it came out great. Unfortunaly I wasent inn when she picked it up but I hear she loves it.

This customer is in the art and crafts world. I loved making her ring. She came in with a solid design. A beautifuly delicate ring with a matching band.

Helix

Inspiration comes from a lot of places.

This customer wanted to give her daughter a special ring with some family diamonds. Her daughter was studying biology so we came up with a double helix design. Creating this one was a bear but it came out beyond cool

Simple and realy cooool

This is another customer that came in with a solid idea, we just had to make the design work. Holding the diamond with just rails was scary but I was able to sneak in an under carrage that worked great.

Customers design

Often a customer comes in with a design. Often its a great concept but the enginering needs work. This was the case with this one. This one came out just right. I tweaked the customers design to make everything work. No prongs we were able to use the leaves to hold the stone. We scanned the customers drawing into the computer then used it as the background as we built the cad model over the image. Once we added the exact size stone and moved things around we came up with a great design.

Matching bands

Finding a matching band is one of the hardest things to find. Many E rings come with them but more dont. This customer wanted an exact match so we scanned her E ring and used that to build the wedding band.It came out perfect the shanks match and everything ligns up.
