Custom Black And White Diamond Engagement Ring
Item #103342Engagement Ring Description
She already had the diamond she wanted to use, and we took the information she gave us about the other types of styles and features she wanted to include to develop a unique design for her. It was based loosely on one of our other original pieces, but we made several modifications to make it perfectly match her personal style as well as to accommodate her stunning center stone.

Center Setting
The diamond we built this ring around is a 1.5 carat asscher cut stone, and it’s held in a wrapped tension setting that arises naturally from the criss-cross shank below. The diamond is set so that its corners occupy the compass positions, which is the placement the client requested. This arrangement flows smoothly with the movement of the rest of the design, complementing the cross-over pattern of the bands below nicely. Unique Engagement Rings
Band Design and Diamond Accents
This ring is actually made up of two bands joined together in a style that combines the engagement ring and wedding band into one. The outer band is smooth, and it tapers as it nears the top to facilitate the transition into the setting for the center diamond. The inner band features round bright cut set diamond accents running along the top half, and it sits across the outer band, allowing the diamond accents to pass directly below the center stone. One of a Kind Engagement Rings
The accent diamonds are both black and white, and they’re set in an alternating pattern that complements the dark plating on the metal nicely. The contrast in the accents highlights the contrasts found elsewhere in the piece as well, and even the smaller diamonds’ round shape complements the more angular asscher cut.

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.
