14k Yellow Gold Custom Ruby And Diamond Engagement Ring
Item #102453 $5,121 Price does not include center stoneEngagement Ring Description
Although he could never come into our Bellevue, WA showroom personally, the technological tools we use for every custom project ensured that he was completely satisfied with the piece we produced for him. In fact, he and his fiancee liked the engagement ring so much that they came back to us to make a custom wedding band to match.
Ruby Center
The main stone in this ring is a 1.12 carat round ruby with a rich red color that’s really complemented nicely by the warm rose gold of the band. It’s prong set, which leaves the sides open so that as much of the stone as possible can be seen from every angle.
While they are not commonly found in engagement rings these days, rubies actually have a long and storied history in that role. They are associated with passion and a faithful commitment, which are wonderful overtones to add to such a special ring.
Diamond Halo and Accents
Surrounding the ruby is a halo of bright cut set round diamonds that add sparkle as well as contrast to the design. The corresponding stones in the client’s inspiration piece were slightly larger, but he requested that we make them smaller and use more of them to narrow the halo and create the look he knew his fiancee would love.
Three tapered bright cut set diamonds are also found on each shank shoulder right next to the main setting, and these help to tie the two parts of the ring together nicely. In addition to their beautiful sparkle, the diamonds also bring their traditional symbolism to the piece, which includes sentiments of eternal love and unmatched beauty.
Hand Engraving and Milgrain
The diamonds in the halo, as well as those on the shank shoulders, are lined with milgrain, and this continues down to border the hand engraving that covers most of the lower band as well. The engraving is in a beautiful wheat pattern, and its exquisite detail is a reflection of the skill of our expert artisans. The fact that this type of feature is added by hand as the last step in the production process also means that you can use it to include a pattern or design with special significance to you.

Customizing This Design
Any Joseph Jewelry item can be customized or used as the starting point for a new custom design. The gemstones, metal, proportions, setting style, surface details, and overall profile can be adjusted to better match your preferences, style, and budget.
Every custom piece begins with a conversation about what you want to create and what matters most to you. You work one-on-one with a designer to refine the concept, review the design direction, and create a detailed 3D CAD image of the item before it is made.
After the design is approved, we can create a wax model so you can review the piece physically. This step helps you evaluate scale, proportions, shape, and overall presence before final production begins.
Once the wax model is approved, our jewelers craft the finished piece with attention to structure, finish, stone security, and long-term wear. Each adjustment is reviewed carefully so the final item feels intentional, balanced, and made specifically for you.
You do not need to have every detail figured out before starting. If you like this item but want to change the stone, metal, size, shape, width, engraving, or overall style, we can guide those decisions through the custom design process.
Quality & Craftsmanship
At Joseph Jewelry, quality begins with the structure. We follow strict design and construction standards for metal thickness, weight, stone support, setting security, and long-term durability. These details help ensure the item is substantial enough for everyday wear while still maintaining a refined appearance.
We do not design custom jewelry to be unnecessarily thin or fragile. If a setting, band, gallery, or accent detail needs more support, we address it before production begins. The goal is to protect the stones, preserve the shape of the ring, and create a piece that can be worn confidently over time.
Gemstone selection is also part of our quality process. We help choose the center stone, side stones, and melee diamonds used in each ring, reviewing them for cut, color, clarity, consistency, and how well they fit the design. Even when a ring is designed around a specific budget, we maintain careful standards for the materials and craftsmanship that determine the quality of the finished piece.
Before completion, each custom piece is reviewed for proportion, comfort, stone security, finishing, and long-term wear.
Care & Warranty
All Joseph Jewelry custom pieces are supported by our lifetime warranty. We also provide long-term care, including complimentary cleaning and regular inspection, so your jewelry can be maintained properly over time.
Routine inspection is especially valuable for pieces worn every day. It allows the setting, stones, and overall structure to be checked as the jewelry is worn.
