Custom ring, and a now-engaged us!

[dncdnc]

Here''s the final product of our joint project designing a ring with Jewelsmith in Durham NC. It took a few revisions to really get the prongs the way she envisioned, but now we''re blown away by the results, and so so so happy to have our rings on our fingers (that''s right, engagement rings for both of us).

I gasped out loud when I saw that profile shot!

I love the graduated stones, and the swirly-curvy setting just screams "romance".


Beautiful!!

Your ring is beautiful! What are the sizes/carat weights of the stones?

 

[dncdnc]

I''ll have pics of my ring up later.

As for the sizes:
Ring size 7 1/4
Diamonds (across): 0.10-0.31-0.74-0.31-0.10

We found that the proportions above made for the best taper from the center stone outwards, at least for our tastes of how we wanted the diamonds to appear from above.
