The Making of a Custom-Made Platinum Lab-Grown Alexandrite Engagement Ring with Matching Band

A custom engagement ring and matching band are not just pieces of jewelry but representations of a unique love story. Here’s how the custom Platinum Lab-Grown Alexandrite Engagement Ring with a Matching Band was crafted, from concept to creation:

Customer's Vision and Design Consultation

The journey began with a customer who had a specific vision in mind. They wanted an engagement ring featuring a captivating lab-grown Alexandrite, known for its color-changing properties under different lighting conditions, set in platinum for a sleek, modern look, complimented with accent stones and a subtle milgrain pattern curving down the shank. The customer also requested a matching wedding band to complement the engagement ring. During the consultation, details like the Alexandrite’s size how the matching band would fit seamlessly with the engagement ring were discussed to ensure the design reflected both beauty and practicality.

3D Model Creation Using Computer Aided Design (CAD) Technology

Once the design elements were finalized, the next step involved translating the customer’s ideas into a 3D model using computer-aided design (CAD) technology. The CAD model allowed the customer to see a realistic rendering of the engagement ring and matching band from every angle. This digital model showcased the intricate details of the Alexandrite’s setting and the platinum band. The matching band was designed to sit perfectly flush against the engagement ring, following the same design aesthetic.

Casting in Platinum

With the 3D model approved, the casting process began. Platinum was chosen for its durability and sophisticated appearance. A mold was created based on the 3D design, and molten platinum was poured into the mold to form the ring and matching band. Platinum is a premium metal known for its strength and it's hypoallergenic, making it an ideal choice for both engagement rings and wedding bands and using a naturally white metal.

Finishing Touches: Setting the Lab-Grown Alexandrite, Final Polishing and Inspection

The centerpiece of the engagement ring was the lab-grown Alexandrite, selected for its stunning ability to change color based on the lighting, shifting from deep greens to purples. The Alexandrite was carefully placed into its setting by hand, ensuring it was secure while allowing the stone to catch light from every angle, enhancing its captivating color-changing effect.

Before delivering the custom pieces to the customer, both the engagement ring and matching band underwent a final round of polishing. The platinum was buffed to a mirror-like shine, highlighting the metal’s natural luster. Every detail, from the Alexandrite’s setting to the smoothness of the bands, was inspected for precision and quality to ensure the rings would not only look stunning but also stand the test of time.

The result was a breathtaking set of rings, showcasing the rare beauty of the lab-grown Alexandrite against the cool elegance of platinum. The custom-made engagement ring and matching band were perfectly tailored to the customer’s original vision, creating a unique symbol of their commitment and love.
