Engagement rings,
including the one that does not exist yet.
Solitaires, halos, three stone and vintage settings, plus custom builds where you approve a render and a wax before any metal is cut.
Browsing opens San Diego Jewelry Buyers, my own store, which is where the listings live and the checkout runs.
Two ways to do this. Buy something that already exists, which is faster and almost always cheaper, or have it made, which takes longer and gets you exactly the thing in your head.
Plenty of people walk in certain they want one and leave having chosen the other. Either is fine. What matters is seeing both before you commit, because the price difference is usually not what people expect.
Estate settings cost less than new
The same stone in an older setting is routinely under a new one, and the setting is often better made.
See it before it exists
Custom means a render from every angle and a wax you can try on, before any gold is cut and after the price is agreed.
Bring stones you already have
An inherited ring nobody wears is often most of the budget for the one somebody will.

The ones I get asked.
- Is a custom ring more expensive than buying one?
- Usually yes, but not always, and the gap is smaller than people expect. Bringing your own stones closes it further. We will price both so you can compare before deciding.
- How long does a custom engagement ring take?
- It depends on the design and the stones, and we agree a timeline with you before any work starts rather than quoting a number that might not hold.
- Can you use the diamond from an inherited ring?
- Very often, yes. Bring it in and we will tell you what can be reused and what cannot before you commit to anything.
