Custom Client Projects

The future bride wanted to be a part of the design process for her ring, so she and her soon-to-be-fiancé were shopping together. She knew she wanted a 2.00-carat size round diamond and it was imperative that we incorporate fancy pink diamonds into the design.

The thin platinum shank highlights the size of the 2.00-carat diamond and makes it look larger than life. Setting the fancy pink diamonds in rose gold really helps to amp up the color, a pink background reflects the pink back to make it even more intense.

Custom-designed contemporary slider for Tim & Linda. Linda only wears yellow gold and she has a vast collection that she has collected over the years of their marriage. Tim wanted to design something special for her as a Christmas gift. He knew he wanted a large diamond in a yellow-gold slider-style pendant that Linda could wear every day. It had to be contemporary, and minimalist with symmetry and angles to set it apart from the average diamond necklace. Once he saw the elongated shape of the 1.50-carat cushion shape diamond, we used that as the inspiration to build the pendant around the stone. The diamond appears to float between the hexagon-shaped enclosure and the crisscross bale allowing the shape of the piece to flow seamlessly up around the chain she wears it on.

Linda described this pendant as one of her favorites in her entire collection, which is really saying something, based on the depth of her collection.

The most special part of this custom-designed wedding ring is the eternity design of the princess cut diamonds, they encircle the band completely to show diamonds at every turn.

We tailored the halo to the client’s specifications as well, it was important to have a halo with clipped corners, rather than a halo with 90-degree angles as it gives the diamonds more of a cushion shape, as opposed to the square shape.

This pendant was a special birthday gift from husband to wife. It celebrates the birth of their 3 children and their spiritual beliefs, and it is customized in every way. Sarah, unfortunately, has an allergy to white gold (very rare!), so we made sure to set this pendant in platinum.

Rather than the traditional up-and-down cross, sideways crosses have been popular as of late. The birthstones represent every member of their family, luckily all have jewel-tone birth months which allow for a cool-toned color palette throughout. A wheat chain not pictured finished the piece with a little texture that’s feminine and traditional.

Scott came to us with diamonds and gold from his family’s heirlooms that he wanted to be turned into a piece he could wear himself. Most of the diamonds came out of an older ring of his mom’s and one was his aunt’s old ring.

Naturally, a lady’s ring isn’t the style for a guy like Scott so we made sure to design a masculine piece with squared-off edges and a tapered, gents-style top with the diamonds burnished into the ring itself to allow for a flush, masculine design. The engraved lines on the top helped to balance the imbalance of a larger diamond, set off center, and the smaller diamonds set alongside.

Debi is a long-time client and someone we would consider a friend. She has incredible taste in jewelry and she and her husband have acquired many pieces through us, but also on their travels. Being married for several decades, they have taken trips around the world and like to buy jewelry during their travels to remember their trip. Debi and Jim had picked up a beautiful Tahitian pearl while traveling through Southeast Asia, nearly two decades ago.

Debi finally decided it was time to put this pearl to work and to make a beautiful pendant to highlight the luster of the pearl and as something to remember that trip by. We wanted to ensure that the pearl was the focal point, so we went with an organic free-flowing style of the bale which has a 3D design to highlight the three-dimensional nature of the pearl. This piece shines from every angle, front side, and back. To pick up on the green hue of the Tahitian pearl we opted for a marquise shape green tourmaline. She threads it through one of her many longer yellow-gold chains and wears it amulet-style.

It was a big decision for Chris to pop the question again. It was the second time around for him, but he knew Sara was too special to lose. We worked closely together to design something special for Sara which incorporated a princess cut diamond in a contemporary twisting ring, ‘kite-setting’. The square stone gave it a one-of-a-kind appearance.

Blue sapphires are something Chris was sure that Sara wanted to be incorporated into the design of her ring. A good thing too; they are a great match against a white diamond and white gold.
