How to Make Your Custom Engagement Ring Truly Unique

The first major decision you will have to make when you finally decide to pop the big question is what kind of a wedding ring you should get your beloved. To answer this, you have to know the answer to one question first.

What does your bride-to-be want in an engagement ring? An engagement ring is something she will cherish forever, a symbol of your love and commitment. Therefore you have to make sure that the ring is special.

But how can you make sure that her ring is truly unique? The obvious answer to this is getting a custom engagement ring made especially for her. A lot of reputable companies like Emerson & Farrar Fine Jewelry create unique rings according to a design you choose. Custom rings have seen a major increase in popularity over the last couple of years.

According to a recent survey, 49% of the brides think that the design of an engagement ring is its most important feature. Women care about the design more than they do about the size or the quality of the diamond.A custom engagement ring puts you in charge of the design and if you know what your spouse loves in jewelry, your engagement ring is guaranteed to impress her. A custom ring is a piece of jewelry that will transcend generations.

Here are 5 ideas you can use when you decide on the design of your own custom engagement ring:

Colored Gemstones

It’s should come as no surprise that diamonds are still the most popular gemstone choice for an engagement ring. According to Gunderson’s, 62% of all brides prefer the diamond as the center stone. However, there are a lot of brides who prefer colored gemstones to diamonds.

Gemstones come in a variety of colors and the most popular choices for engagement rings are rubies, emeralds and sapphires. These gemstones can be used as the focal points of the ring or can be used to further decorate a diamond ring.

Since finding engagement rings with colored gemstones can be tricky, having one made especially for you is hitting two birds with one stone. You can also make the engagement ring even more personal if you choose a symbolic birthstone as the centerpiece.

Vintage Style

A lot of brides adore vintage engagement rings. Those days, rings were handcrafted and therefore unique. However, vintage rings are not perfect. The diamonds in these rings are different to the ones used in modern rings since the technology involved with diamond production has developed vastly. They are also quite inconsistent given the nature of their manufacture.

One way to have a unique flair of a vintage ring with none of the drawbacks is to have a custom vintage ring designed especially for you. What makes your ring vintage are usually beautiful details and unique shapes and patterns.

Unique Diamond Shapes

If you want to add a diamond in a different shape than usual, like a heart or flower, finding the right setting for it is next to impossible. The same goes for a diamond with a halo. In this case, having a jeweler create a custom setting just for your ring is your best and safest bet. This way the diamond will fit with the ring perfectly.

Unique Setting

If you want your ring to truly stand out from other engagement rings, you can come up with a design unlike anything you’ve seen before. You can suggest an idea to a jeweler or let them help you come up with the perfect design. You can match different metals for a particularly fashionable look.

Adding a Special Symbol

Another perfect way to make an engagement ring that speaks to your future bride is to add a symbol to the setting.

Think about having a tied knot detail or a crown, both symbolizing your love. You could also have a hidden spot with a special birthstone, the symbolism of which only you will understand.

Whichever style you choose, with a custom engagement ring you are bound to swipe your better half off her feet. An engagement ring is the most important piece of jewelry you are ever going to buy. Therefore, it should be nothing short of perfect!
