Our Transparency Process

ALL OUR ITEMS ARE CUSTOM-MADE - OUR RINGS ARE CREATED TO THE FINGER SIZE YOU REQUEST & THE EXACT MEASUREMENTS OF THE CENTER DIAMOND YOU CHOSE.
  • Metal of your choice will be manufactured to the finger size you request to avoid side stones from falling out easily with normal wear & tear.
  • Prongs or basket holding the center diamond you choose will be made for its exact measurements to assure maximum strength to hold center diamond in place. Also to avoid unattractive gaps or overlaps hiding other attractive attributes of your ring especially styles or designs that have halos or other stones near the center diamond.
  • We have A State-Of-The-Art Facility where we manufacture ALL our Fine Jewelry. Our In-House Experienced & TOP Notch CAD Artist and Designers can flawlessly duplicate or re-create ANY Style or Design offered in the market by other companies. They can combine design features of multiple rings into one to bring you that One-Of-A-Kind Look or bring your own ideas into reality.

Every piece of Jewelry is unique, just like you. We genuinely care and want to get to know you.

Our Process:

  1. Personal Introduction - When you place an order, a gemologist will contact you to introduce themselves & our team. You will immediately have a NEW knowledgeable FRIEND to guide you throughout the whole process.
  2. Diamond or Precious Stone Assurance - You will be provided with valuable knowledge and insight into the diamonds or precious stones you purchased. If you have purchased a ring with a Center Diamond, you may be provided with multiple options and variations to choose from, the Center Diamond down to the Side Diamonds. Occasionally when available items are eligible for Free upgrades in metal purity, carat weight, color and quality or offered at very little additional cost. Live images and videos will be provided for visual aid.
  3. Design Assurance - We will provide you with detailed CAD Drawings and/or Renderings using your diamonds to show you what your product looks like.
