Description
This gorgeous engagement ring features a round blue sapphire prong set at the top of a criss-cross split shank, accented with bright cut set diamonds and milgrain beading. It was created for a client from Kenmore, WA, who visited our Bellevue, WA showroom in person to get the custom design process started. Design Your Own Engagement Ring

On that initial visit, he found some inspiration pieces that he wanted to combine, and so we produced some rough composite images which we shared with him through the online workroom we set up to manage his project. He liked these images, and so we continued on to develop a detailed design in CAD. He requested a few modifications to these models, and we also grew a wax for him to come in and view in person before he gave his final approval to move the piece into production.
Sapphire Center
In the center of this ring, a 0.91 carat round blue sapphire is cradled delicately in four platinum prongs. The client knew from the beginning that he wanted a blue sapphire as the primary stone, and we brought in a number of different options for him to choose from. This allowed him to personally select the gemstone, ensuring that it was exactly what he’d been envisioning, while also adding to the personal significance of the piece.

Band Design and Diamond Accents
The design features the client hoped to combine from his inspiration pieces included the split shank and the wrapped-style halo. Both are present in this ring, as the band splits about half-way up each side. A pear-shaped diamond is prong set at the point of this split, and bright cut set diamonds lined with milgrain run up both emerging strands on the top and front surfaces. One of a Kind Engagement Rings
The two strands diverge and intertwine with those from the other side, eventually looping back in to meet each other on the opposite side of the stone. This brings a dynamic movement to the design, and it creates just the sort of intricate yet classic look the client was after.
