There was a time when a natural diamond was the most brilliant, most durable, rarest, and the most treasured gemstone in the world. That time has passed.
Now, diamonds are plentiful, needlessly expensive, and increasingly the subject of political, economic, humanitarian, and environmental conflict internationally.
The good news is many women today do not want diamond engagement rings.
If you are interested in an alternative centerpiece for your lady's engagement ring, now is a great time. Technological advances in the last decade have brought us diamond alternatives that alchemists have been dreaming of for centuries.
Please do not feel limited to the engagement ring designs on this page. My customers design and fabricate rings regularly, but I only update this website occasionally.
