If you’re interested in learning more about the custom design process, you can reach out through our website or stop by our Bellevue, WA showroom in person. Our experts will discuss your ideas with you, and we’ll use the information you provide to develop highly-detailed CAD models of the unique piece we propose to make for you. You can request changes to these models as many times as you’d like until you’re sure they’re perfect, and only then will we turn things over to our expert artisans to begin production. Design Your Own Earrings
Center Aquamarines
At the center of these earrings are large cushion cut aquamarines that together total 4.06 carats. They’re each prong set and they’re oriented with their rounded corners at the compass positions, adding a dynamic twist to the overall design. This placement of the center stones is what gives the earrings their overall shape, and it allows them to bring a nice balance to the set.
Diamond Halos and Earring Design
A modified halo of bright cut set diamonds surrounds each of the aquamarines, and its outer margin echoes the outline of the center stone, while its inner margin is scalloped. This creates eight sections for each halo, and the diamonds are all set within these sections in groups of three that taper in size to properly fill the available space. Earrings
Above the top corner of the halo, a single round diamond is bezel set, and this setting connects directly to the finding, providing a nice transition from one part of the piece to another.
Filigree and Milgrain
An ornate basket encloses the backs of the main body of the earrings, and these are made up of custom scroll filigree lined with milgrain beading. The milgrain is also used to to outline the scalloped sections of the halo, providing a nice bit of vintage flair as well as a common feature to unify the various elements of the design.
