Looking for vendor recommendations for complex ring design (design illustrations incl.)

I have the same finger size as you. Just remember you only have so much finger space to work with, and if the stones are too big it will take away from the flow across your finger. The stones have to be pretty high up for so much pave in the curved edges, given the width it appears you want.

You've been shown some incredible designers to contact! Have fun!
 
If not those artists already mentioned -
It would be interesting to see the take on OP’s design someone like Adam Foster would be.
Oooooh that's a great suggestion. His IG has a bunch of nature inspired sculptural designs
 
That’ll be a killer ring!!! Good luck for your project!!!
I’m sorry but I got focused to the wrong detail... My broke *ss focusing on how OP described what she wants with her center stone as “Large but not huge”. In my dictionary 11x9mm Cushion is HUGE because it’ll be about 6-7ct Cushion:lol::lol::lol::lol:
 
Fun project! A European based house who could do colored melée and big unconventional designs is De Grisgono. Very nice and very expensive. They don't do dainty or small, but their execution is top notch. Their pavé feels like silk it is so smoothly done.

I really like your grass design creeping up the side if the stones, but don't think the inset stones are necessary. I would prefer to see color swirling around the pavé instead. But agree with others on here, it is going to be a BIG statement ring similar to a cocktail ring with those pavé sides swooping down like that. Anywho, if you want color, they are a good house to google to see if you like that look.

I thought of De Grisgono too! GORGEOUS pieces. Pristine workmanship. I inquired about a ring many years ago. Pricing... About what you’d expect :lol: I wasn’t looking for a custom design, but it was indicated that customer opinion is not solicited outside the realms of high jewellery special requests...

To throw some other designer names into the mix - I have no idea if they do custom pieces but they seem to be able to do very delicate work with dramatic details and lots and lots of pave: Arunashi (Beverly Hills), Sevan Bicakci, Jewellery Theatre.

I got their names from this Instagram page called “hernameismargo” - she posts a lot of pictures with similar aesthetic to what you want and posts designers I haven’t heard anyone else mention super often. So perhaps worth a shot to check out her page and find other designers.
 
Hey Y'all! Been lurking for the past decade, finally have a reason to post!

I've been working on a ring design for a long time, and have spent weeeeeeks creating a digital illustration recently. I'd like to get some vendor recommendations for who's capable of this type of work. I am absolutely the kind of person who notices slightly askew prongs, misaligned pave, etc., so a range of price points would be nice but quality work is a much higher priority than price.

Trying to create a ring that looks pretty clean from the top down and very intricate from the sides, combining modern with organic. I realize *exactly* as illustrated is unlikely, but I'm hoping to get:

- 4 tone gold (rose, yellow, green, unplated white)
- Engraving on the vines and leaves, with the baskets growing from the internal vines
- 2.5mm or thinner on the shanks (looking down from the top, with 0.7mm melee or whatever the smallest available is - curving around the shank so only 3 stones wide visible from the top).
- Milgrain around the pave and french cuts,

and... I've been considering some rainbow color variation in the melee with very faint fancy colored diamonds, but it was a bit much when i put it in the illustration.
(Currently have rainbow holo hair so...I have a thing with lots of color. If I could pick stones with 90% rainbow flashes, I would)

Exact center stones are TBD, probably lab diamonds, but I'm aiming for elongated AVCs right now. Very faint, buttery yellow (S - Z ish) center, lower color, almost creamy white sides (J/K). Definitely want elongated rectangle shape, but not a big fan of the crushed ice look in larger stones, and want the chunkier rainbow flashes. If someone has other suggestions for that, I'm open to them!

I like the 3 stone from the side the best, but I'm digging the single stone from the top, so not sure on that yet, but I suspect that's the easy part.

So, any suggestions?? I'm at the very beginning of this but I'd like to start sorting through my options. Thank you!

The colors in the mock-up reminded me of this ring by JH Ranger Artworks.
