A symbol of love and the promise of forever is arguably one of the most important purchases you will ever make. As such, it’s vital to take your time when choosing an engagement ring that reflects your partner’s personality and style. While browsing jewelry stores can provide a plethora of options, many couples are now turning to custom engagement rings for something truly unique. Here’s why:
The Benefits of In-Store Engagement Rings
This big decision doesn’t have to be a long process. When you shop for engagement rings in-store, you get a convenient and immediate experience.
1. Immediate Try On
You can try on a wide variety of rings to find the one that’s perfect for you on the spot—no more waiting for shipping just to have to ship it back if it’s not the right fit.
2. Variety
There are many gorgeous styles available in-store, so you can take your time looking through all the options until you find “the one.”
3. No Waiting Period
Purchasing an in-store engagement ring means you can have it right away—skip the long wait times.
The Benefits of Custom Engagement Rings
If you’re looking for something truly unique, then a custom engagement ring is the way to go. When you work with a jeweler to design and create your special piece, you get:
1. Personalized Design Experience
You get to work directly with a designer to create the perfect ring. Curate your design that’s specifically tailored to you and your partner.
2. Sourcing Transparency
When you use fast shopping, you may not know where the materials used to make your ring come from. When you create a custom engagement ring, you have the option to know exactly what type of metals and stones were used in its creation, so you can ensure you’re using ethical sources.
3. Your Dream Ring
You don’t have to settle for something that looks close enough—you get exactly what you envisioned. This is the biggest decision of your life, so why not make it perfect? And if you want to use heirloom diamonds or design a ring from scratch, then it’s worth considering the benefits of going the custom route!
The Custom Jewelry Process
When it comes to custom jewelry, the process can vary depending on the jeweler you work with. At Essex Fine Jewelry, however, here’s what you can expect on your journey to your dream ring:
1. Dream It Up
Share your vision for your perfect ring with your designer and come up with a concept together to make your dream a reality
2. Work Closely With Your Designer
Discuss materials, stones, and designs for your ring until you’re both satisfied with the vision.
3. Learn About the Jewelry
Learn about the sourcing of metals, stones, and other materials used in your custom engagement ring—no detail is too small.
4. Receive Your Ring
Once it’s complete, you get to show off your beautiful engagement ring and pop the big question!
If you want a truly unique and personalized engagement ring, a custom piece might be the right choice for you. We’ve got just the place that will craft it to your expectations.
