Amethyst Centers and Milgrain Beading
The only gemstones in this set are two cushion shaped amethysts that combine to total 1.67 carats. The stones are both bezel set in 14k white gold, and their rich purple color contrasts beautifully with the silvery shine of the metal. The enchanting quality of the stones is also enhanced by the arrangement of facets across their top surface, which is what gives them their distinctive checkerboard appearance.
Although the bezel settings follow the contours of the amethysts closely, they do veer off in the middle of each side to form a point. This adds a dynamic quality to the set, and it also takes things in a vintage direction stylistically. That vintage theme is further enhanced by the use of double rows of milgrain beading to line the margins of the bezel settings all the way around. Earrings
Earring Design
Behind the stones, organic-style filigree baskets provide protection as well as an added intricacy. The narrow findings attach to the bodies of the earrings through a ring that emerges from behind the top point of the bezel setting, and this allows the earrings to hang with those points at the compass positions.
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.
