Sapphire And Silver Ring

Q: Does anyone out there do custom jewlery? I am looking for information on how I could acquire a sapphire ring set in silver. This would serve as my engagement ring (I hate gold). I'm looking for about .50 carat.

A:Uh, well, custom work is all I do. Ig you have not chosen a jeweler yet, or even if you just want to discuss what it is you want, drop me a line. BTW, why do you hate gold (just curious)? ANY gold or just yellow? No problem at all, we have nearly ten thousand stock designs all built by experienced union career journeyman benchworkers as well as a full blown special order department. We work from customer's sketches or samples submitted and bid each item... You can "save a fortune" by using one of our special order patterns of the wax boards, and the .50ct. sapphire should be realitievly inexpensive as well, depending on what you want... Ya might just request our 127 page catalog of the ten thousand items for reference, our wax boards have saved our customer's tens of thousands of dollars over the last twenty years, we're very experienced and take pride in both our products and our large shop performance... Check it out :) Have you considered platinum also? It is heavier and more durable than silver, as well as non-reactive. Since it is the token of a union you hope to endure throughout your life, you might want to consider using this more expensive material. Just think, you only have to buy it once. :-) Unless you have the design in mind and are just looking for someone to make it for you, you might want to go to a jewelry store/craftsperson's shop and look at existing designs. There you will get to look at a range of styles, prices, etc. You will also be able to get some advice about what will or will not look good or work well as a piece of jewelry. This applies both to the design of the piece in itself and how it will look on you -- for instance, if you have a large frame, a dainty piece of filigree work may look absurd on your size 8 finger. Or it might go wonderfully with the 14th century costumes you always wear to the office. Don't forget to consider how your wedding band and your fiance's (if any) will look as a "set" with the engagement ring.
