Step-by-Step Guide to Designing Your Engagement Ring
Crafting the perfect engagement ring should be a joyous journey, not a chore. At Bespoke Diamonds, we guide you through every step of this exciting process. We suggest that you check out other jewellers, look at Instagram, Pinterest and other sites showing a wide range of styles and ideas. This will likely inspire you and give you some ideas of designs you like and don’t like which will be helpful when it comes to designing your ring with us.
Step 1: Getting in Touch
The first step towards crafting your perfect ring is getting in touch with us. We can be contacted by phone at 01 6855800, email at info@bespokediamonds.ie, or through our Instagram. If you prefer, you can also book an appointment directly through our website at https://www.bespokediamonds.ie/book-an-appointment/.
Step 2: The Creative Consultation
Once you reach out, we will schedule a creative consultation which usually lasts between 30-60 minutes in the privacy of our office. During this consultation, our ring consultant will introduce you to the process, provide detailed information on diamonds, gold, and other materials, and show you options from our hundreds of ring designs, settings, diamonds, and gemstones to spark your imagination. With your desires and details in mind, we will guide you through the steps of creating your ring. Rest assured, our consultations are pressure-free, and we are dedicated to helping you explore all possible options.
Step 3: Bringing Your Vision to Life with CAD Drawings
After finalizing the design details, our consultant will instruct our ring designer to create a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) drawing. This draft will then be sent to you by email for approval. At this stage, you are welcome to ask questions and request adjustments to ensure that the design truly reflects your vision. We will only proceed to the next stage once we receive final approval from you and the consultant.
Step 4: The Art of Crafting – From Wax to Polished Jewel
Upon approval of the CAD design, we create a 3D wax model for your viewing. This is especially helpful if your design deviates significantly from the styles available in our showroom. Once you approve the wax model, we commence the actual production process. Our skilled goldsmiths and diamond setters work closely with the consultant and designer throughout the production process to ensure every detail of the design is impeccably executed.
Step 5: The Moment of Awe – Completing Your Custom Ring
Once your ring is ready, we will arrange a collection appointment for you. This allows you the opportunity to try it on, have our consultant check the fit, and address any remaining questions you may have. Should your ring require resizing, our on-site goldsmiths can often complete this task within hours on weekdays.
We believe in the magic of bespoke jewellery and are committed to creating a piece that tells your unique love story. From your first contact with us to the moment you walk away with your completed ring, our team at Bespoke Diamonds is dedicated to making this process as enjoyable and memorable as possible.
