The Custom Design Process: From Concept to Creation
Just like a relationship, the making of a custom ring has several steps. The couple must stay on board as everything besides the crafting relies on their shoulders. Here is a step-by-step guide on how custom rings are made.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
The beautiful journey begins with a consultation with your designer or jeweler. This is where you discuss everything on your mind from the budget to the design you want. It is always better to come prepared with photos or sketches of inspiration. If you miss out on that part you can always have a look at the collections available in-store or online for inspiration. Always answer the questions of the jeweler with an open mind for the best result.
Step 2: Conceptual Design
After the first step, the jeweler will proceed to show you a conceptual design. This might be in the form of a sketch, 3D renders, or wax models. The aim is to ensure you are satisfied with the design and it looks the same as it is in your head. If you have any problems feel free to speak at this moment or it will be too late.
Step 3: Selection of Materials
The fun part of getting a custom ring begins right here. You choose the metal you want the ring to be in plus the gemstones (if any) that need to be incorporated. If you have a family heirloom you hand it over at this point. Our rhodium plated CZ design ring for men is a great example of a selection of materials. The rhodium-plated body stamped with a CZ stone in the middle just is an ideal choice for men.
Step 4: Crafting and Final Presentation
The ring then goes into the crafting stage where the jeweler shows his magic. Depending on the design this process may take a few weeks. Once it is completed you can go and receive your ring. The process of receiving the rings is just as memorable as the day you wear them. So go collect the rings yourself and cherish the moment forever.
The Emotional Significance of a Custom Ring
Custom rings are not just accessories to wear, they have complete stories behind them. A shared experience can easily be stamped on the ring in different ways or forms. This allows the ring to be an important part of your life. Whenever you look at it you will be reminded of the special moment you shared. Furthermore, custom rings usually end up being family heirlooms. The thought, effort, and love behind it make it nearly impossible to get out of the family.
