Ahh, story time! You may have seen but our clients got a new AL&EM piece 🤭

Her original engagement ring (before we met) had begun to show significant wear & tear after only being engaged a year or two. The diamond was loosey goosey & we all knew it was going to need a safer home one day sooner than later. Her husband came up with the greatest surprise 😂

We worked together to review notes and created exactly what she had always wanted. She needed something stronger and safe, hence the bezel setting, and the setting to be as low as possible for her pretty active lifestyle. We built the ring and waited for the right time for him to bring it in for a “repair”.

Once we set the diamond, he presented her with a box that had her original ring sans diamond. Absolute panic!! Moments later, he gifted her the new forever ring. Same diamond, same commitment, new forever home for the stone.

Swipe to see the empty OG and her ‘omg’ face 🤭

AH! (Delayed) congratulations to this sweet couple! Meet this meaningful toi et moi engagement ring: one side is pave set with his family heirloom diamonds and the other is a new-to-them bezel-set emerald-cut green emerald. The band tapers from thinner at the top to wider at the bottom to balance the weight of the ring and also emphasize the settings. The euro shank is present to keep the setting centered on the top of her finger.

It was such a joy designing it with him. He even brought in pictures of her jewelry box to give us an idea of her style, likes, & dislikes. 🫶🥹

love is in the AIR y’allll! congratulations to M & B 💕

Love on this custom December engagement ring with us for a moment! We built a trilogy diamond ring with a floating setting to make sure any additional wedding bands will stack flush.

These diamonds are one of our favorites to talk about right now: elongated old mine cuts. Elongated old mine cut diamonds are an antique diamond cut dating back to the 18th and 19th century. Their unique proportions and faceting pattern creates a less brilliant look than modern cut diamonds. This subtle appearance is contrasted by more intense refractive characteristics caused by the larger facets. The result is soft and fiery look with a romantic feel. 💗

Ahh!! A gorgeous 2025 rework. This oval diamond got a new life in this 18k yellow gold step bezel setting for one of our favorite neighbors. 😍

We’re big fans of making your engagement ring exactly what you want!
