CAD Renderings - Custom Rings |

START WITH RIGHT SHAPE DIAMOND If you're having a custom made ring fabricated, the first thing you have to decide is on the shape of the diamond. The shape of the diamond will determine the setting of the ring.

GET THE CLARITY YOU NEED
Every day we receive request for diamonds with Internally Flawless, VVS1 or VVS2 clarity. We immediately ask if the shopper really requires that high of clarity grade or if they simply want a diamond that is very clean to the eye. |
|
|
For brilliant cut diamonds (rounds, ovals, princess, radiants, etc) most SI1 clarity diamonds are clean to the eye. For step cut shapes (emerald cuts, Asschers, etc) that have few facets and are very transparent, we recommend at least VS2 clarity to ensure the diamond is clean to the eye. |
|
DETERMINE TARGET DIAMOND SIZE
Some diamond cuts have the appearance of looking naturally larger than they really are, such as a pear or a marquise.

THE CUT Learn what the specifications need to be for a great cut for your desired shape diamond and then find the best value within those criteria. Buy a diamond with great cut and you will be rewarded with years of beauty.

|
If you are buying a diamond over a half carat for a ring, you should be buying a diamond certified by the GIA or AGS grading laboratories. |

A whiter stone lets greater amounts of light pass through it, making it sparkle and shine. |
