Tanzanite Center
The centerpiece of this ring is a 3.85 carat oval tanzanite with a lovely blue color. It’s cradled in a four-prong setting that rises up from a single point on the 14k white gold shank below. The prongs are large and smooth, providing a nice contrast with the rich color of the tanzanite while complementing its shape nicely.
Tanzanites were discovered relatively recently, with the first known stones dating only as far back as 1967. They are even more rare than diamonds, and they’re only found in one place on Earth. They generally come in between six and seven on the Mohs hardness scale, making them significantly softer than diamonds but still strong enough for use in fine custom jewelry.

Band Design
The band of this ring is smooth and flat, tapering gently as it nears the main setting. The top portion then angles up slightly on its way up to meet the side of the tanzanite, while a thinner piece continues across under the stone on the bottom. This is where the prongs of the main setting originate, and it acts as a bridge connecting the two sides of the shank. Custom Engagement Rings
Customization Options
This is a versatile and elegant design, offering many options for customization. If you like the overall outline of this piece but don’t think you want such a large center stone, we can scale it down until it’s more in line with what you’re after. We can also adapt the ring to accommodate a different shaped center such as a round or marquise, and we can help you select the perfect gemstone whether you’re interested in diamond, sapphire, or another alternative.

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.
