Ok - I finally have all the basic design decisions made for a custom mens band I want to have done as part of our joint 10 year ring upgrade - it is not complicated - but I want it done right and with great attention to the finish - I want to start with a replica of a Tiffiany Lucida 4.5 mm plain platinum band - comfort fit and good weight to the ring - either a 950 Plat/Ruthen mix or a 900 Plat/Iridium mix -- high polish finish - 3 small stones inset on the inside of the band and then some engraving - the stones will be 2 mm or so - diamond, ruby and aquamarine for the birthstones of wife and kids - so now that I have these basic descions made - who do I turn entrust this project to? thanks for the recommendations -

I think someone had a similar band done for her fiance with a surprise sapphire inside at Knox Jewelers. I'll try to find the link.

Here it is.

Okay. I''ll bite.

Are you thinking of a ring similar to the attached rendering? I took a hint from another post of yours.

Making the ring is easy enough.

Resizing it will be problematic, and may require replacing the small stones. Any alloy for the underlying band should be fine, as it never is exposed to anyone but the wearer when he choses to remove it. Personally, I''d use platinum. It is inert and very white.

Any good jeweler can pull this off. If you are in trouble and can find no one else to do the job, try Charleston Alexander.
