Hello,
I am anxiously waiting for my custom engagement ring to be completed, but one thing that I found interesting is that the jeweler making the ring said they couldnt produce a wax because it would be in multiple castings. They said due to the "complexity of the ring" this is the best way to do it? Does this make sense? They seem to know what they are doing as they do a lot of custom work for big name jewelry stores "Birks" for one they mentioned. Im just confused by this whole thing thought since I have only ever seen rings done in one casting?
This is a link to the ring, it's a Claude Thibaudeau. Mine will have a 1.33 carat VS1 G color RBC HCA 1.7.... not an oval diamond, and the river stones will be princess cut diamonds, not sapphires and the two round accent stons on either side will be AAA blue ceylon capphires instead of RBC diamonds. Other than that it will be exactly like this according to them. Any input on this would be great.
I am a nervous wreck praying for the ring to be perfect when it fially comes in and I think I am paranoid, I just don't want to screw this up.
