Creating custom engagement rings is an intimate experience for couples, allowing them to craft a ring that symbolizes their love and commitment. Thoughtful consideration goes into every detail of a custom ring, including your partner’s preferences and lifestyle. You may think custom designs require the involvement of a design team, but the truth is you can personalize your engagement ring at Clean Origin by using our ring builder! In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the simple process of personalizing rings using Clean Origin’s ring builder and provide tips and insights on creating a ring that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Clean Origin’s Custom Engagement Ring Process

Personalizing a ring at Clean Origin is a simple process with only three steps.

Step 1: Choose a Ring Setting

The first step is to choose a ring setting. On our website, you’ll find an extensive assortment of ring settings for you to choose from. You’ll find rings with hidden diamond accents, others with a stunning diamond halo around the center stone, and others in just about any other style you may be interested in. Once you’ve found a ring style, you can customize it to suit your preferences. Depending on the chosen ring, you’ll be able to specify the following aspects of your engagement ring:

A diamond ring’s prong setting can impact the diamond’s security, visibility, and overall aesthetic appeal. Generally, you can choose between the standard 4-prong or 6-prong settings. Note that the availability of prong options for a ring depends on the specific design and style.

Step 2: Choose a Center Diamond

The second step is to browse our collection of loose diamonds and choose the right one for your ring’s center stone. If you’re asking yourself, “How do I even choose a diamond?,” worry not. At Clean Origin, we understand that choosing a diamond can be daunting. That is why we’ve created a guide to make it as easy as possible!

In essence, there are four primary diamond attributes you want to pay attention to while examining diamonds.

Carat

When it comes to diamond rings, carat weight plays a crucial role in determining how size will be perceived. While it primarily indicates the diamond’s weight, it’s also an essential factor to consider if you’re looking for a bigger center stone. Investing more of your budget in carat weight can help you achieve that desired look.

Cut

The term “cut” pertains to the quality of a diamond’s shape and polish, which ultimately affects its brilliance and sparkle.

Color

A diamond’s color actually refers to the lack of it. Diamonds without color are considered the most valuable and most highly desired. Although most diamonds have a slight yellow or brown hue, in near colorless diamonds, those hues will not be noticeable to the naked eye.

Clarity

When referring to diamonds, clarity has to do with the amount of blemishes and imperfections present. Though diamonds with higher clarity grades may be more valuable and dazzling, those with lower clarity grades can exhibit distinctive qualities and traits, making them an excellent choice for unique rings.

Step 3: Review Your Diamond Engagement Ring Design

The last step requires reviewing your chosen design and adding it to the shopping cart. Before doing this, consider additional customization options, such as Clean Origin’s Forever Service Plan. Once you have made any final adjustments or additions, you can finalize your purchase and eagerly await the arrival of your custom engagement ring.

Tips on How to Create Your Custom Ring

Before you begin the design process, keep the following tips in mind for creating unique rings that are indeed one of a kind.

Consider Lifestyle

It’s essential to think about your partner’s lifestyle when designing the perfect custom engagement ring. For instance, if your partner has an active lifestyle or works with their hands, consider a lower profile setting or a more durable metal.

Personal Preferences

When designing custom engagement rings, always consider your partner’s personal preferences and personality. This includes their fashion style, favorite colors, and stone shapes that they like. For instance, if your partner prefers a particular type of metal, like platinum or rose gold, it’s essential to consider this when designing the ring. By incorporating design elements that align with your partner’s likes, you’ll undoubtedly have a beautifully finished piece that holds deep meaning for your partner.

Collaborate with a Jewelry Consultant

Working closely with your jeweler can be beneficial while creating a custom engagement ring you and your partner will cherish forever. Jewelry designers can guide you in choosing the materials, stones, and settings that will fit your budget and design preferences.
