Things to Avoid Doing When deciding on a Custom Ring

A custom engagement ring is always a more intimate band. After all, you are putting in hard work, dedication and creativity to make sure you get the best and most innovative ring that screams ‘you’. However, since you are designing it on your own, there can be many things you need to avoid doing. Here are the things you need to avoid when designing custom jewelry in Los Angeles.

Being unsure of what you want

If you do not know what you want, sit down with your jeweler and have a detailed conversation with them. Be mindful of any kind of inspiration. This makes things clear and helps you find the piece you want. Explore diamonds, settings, various metals, and other precious stones. Look at pictures to watch how all these elements can come together. Don’t forget to put a little bit of your personality into the piece too.

Don’t spend too much on the piece

Whether it is oval engagement rings in Los Angeles or any other piece, do not go overboard on the budget. Set aside a budget and stick to it. Jewelers will be able to offer you a rough estimate so you can know beforehand whether you can afford the piece or not.

Not performing the needed research

When going in for custom designs, do your research on the jewelry store in Los Angeles as well as the various patterns and designs. Be thorough and precise and pick certified jewelers to help you out only.

Keep these things in mind and you are sure to have custom designs you are proud of.

Champagne and black diamonds for unique and creative custom pieces

Champagne diamonds are naturally occurring stones, although the effect may be achieved through high heat high pressure treatment for less expensive and naturally occurring yellow stones.

While most couples are looking for the traditional colorless, choosing a champagne diamond ring in Los Angeles will ensure that you have a unique and original ring for the special day. While choosing these exceptionally beautiful and unique colored stones, remember that the intensity of the color is what the grading is based on. Yellow diamonds occur naturally and are abundant, making them a less expensive option for the stone. Champagne diamonds are darker in color and more intense, vivid and rare.

Grading parameters

The colored stones are graded based on the hue, the color tone, and the saturation of the color in the stone. The scale used particularly for champagne diamonds has a grading scale of C1 to C7, where C1 is the lightest and least expensive. C1 and C2 are for the lighter colors graded light Champagne.  C3 and C4 are for medium Champagne colors, C5 and C6 are for dark Champagne and lastly, the C7 which is dark amber, or Cognac colored stones. They are also called the fancy brown and fancy dark brown stones.

If brown stones are not what you are looking for then you can choose the black diamond, although black diamonds are extremely rare and expensive. In case you are looking to splurge and invest, these diamonds are perfect, as the scarcity of these stones ensure that you get a good resale price on exceptionally beautiful, black diamond engagement rings in Los Angeles.

Diamonds come in various colors, and choosing a Champagne or black diamond ring in Los Angeles will ensure that you have a one-of-a-kind piece that will last for a lifetime.
