Have you ever walked through a store and thought that everything looked the same? You look at a shelf of watches or a shelf of rings, and while they are nice, none of them seem to “speak” to you. Now, imagine a ring that never existed until you dreamed it up. Imagine a ring that holds a piece of your personality, your history, and your future in its metal and stone.
When you decide to get married, you are not just buying a piece of jewelry; you are choosing a symbol of your promise. This is why Custom Engagement rings have become so special for couples today. At Bakker Diamonds, we believe that your ring should be as unique as the way you met.
What Does “Custom” Really Mean for You?
When people hear the word “custom,” they sometimes think it sounds complicated or expensive. But in reality, custom just means “made for you.”
Think of it like ordering a meal. You could pick a pre-made sandwich from a fridge, or you could go to a place where you pick the bread, the fillings, and the sauce yourself. Customizing a ring is just like choosing the ingredients. You get to decide on the metal (yellow gold or bright platinum), the shape of the diamond, and the tiny details that make it sparkle.
Why Should You Choose a Custom Design Over a Store-Bought One?
There are three big reasons why Custom Engagement rings are the perfect choice for such a big moment:
- Does It Fit Your Style Perfectly? Maybe you love vintage styles from a hundred years ago, but you also want a modern, thin band. In a regular store, you might never find that mix. When you go custom, you can blend different styles together.
- Does It Tell Your Story? We have worked with couples who wanted to hide a tiny sapphire inside the band because blue is their favorite color, or others who wanted the metal to look like twisting vines because they love hiking. These little “secrets” make the ring feel like it belongs to you.
- Can You Trust the Quality? When a ring is mass-produced in a factory, thousands are made at once. When we create a custom piece at Bakker Diamonds, we look at every single corner of that ring with a magnifying glass. We make sure every stone is secure and every edge is smooth.
How Does the Design Process Work?
Designing your inspired ring can be enjoyable, but it is also relatively simple in nature; it features a series of straightforward steps.
1) Discussion – Here we will discuss both visually, using photographs and through verbal description of emotive feelings about designs for your ring; you do not need to be an authority on gemstones or jewellery; all that matters is your personal preference for what is appealing to you.
2) Development – After we have established your concept in the first step, our design team will begin developing a visual representation of the potential outcome of the ring as it will look before it is actually manufactured.
3) Manufacturing – Once we have completed the previous two phases, our professional ring craftsmen will begin creating an actual, finished piece by taking the metals and stones and converting the design into a finished product.
Is a Custom Ring the Right Choice for Your Proposal?
You’re probably asking yourself, “Isn’t this going to be too much work?” Well, honestly, this can be much less of a hassle than going from store to store to see if you can find “the one” (besides, if you’ve ever gone shopping at several stores looking for that special item and found nothing, would you agree that it was a real hassle?) You’re actually creating your own needle, instead of searching for one in a haystack.
Regardless, if you have a very definite idea of what you want or just an idea/”vibe,” the truth is that designing a custom piece of jewelry means you never have to settle for “good enough.” The way that you feel about your special someone is not “good enough” – it’s amazing! We want the same thing for your ring.
