Customizing Your Perfect Designer Engagement Ring

When you’re ready to propose, you’re confident about who you want to spend the rest of your life with, but you might not know how to go about choosing the perfect ring for her. You want a ring that’s special and meaningful that reflects who she is and your forever bond.

We’re here to guide you every step of the way to help you create the ring of her dreams. First, find the right engagement ring setting, metal, and accents, and then select a dazzling center stone from our curated collection of loose diamonds.

01

CHOOSING THE RING SETTING AND ACCENTS

No matter her style, we can help you create the perfect ring. Whether she prefers dainty and minimal, modern and bold, or vintage and detailed, we can help you choose her ideal match from top bridal jewelry designers.

02

CHOOSING THE RING METAL

Choose warm yellow or rose gold, or cool and elegant white gold. We can help you understand the differences between white gold and platinum and different karat weights.

03

CHOOSING THE CENTER STONE

Select her perfect diamond shape and then pick from our curated selection of loose diamonds. We can walk you through the details of lab-grown vs. natural diamonds and the 4Cs of each diamond as you examine your choices in our diamond viewing room.

What style does she like?

Maybe you’ve already talked about rings and she’s shown you a Pinterest board of her favorites, but if you’re planning on a surprise, think about her personal style. Does she prefer minimal and modern or vintage and intricate designs (in her jewelry, her clothing, her interior decor)?

Modern Styling

If she prefers clean lines, she may prefer a modern setting or a solitaire.

What’s the perfect center diamond?

Once you choose the setting and the metal, you can examine the beautiful loose diamonds we’ve curated. You can look at your diamond selections in our diamond viewing room under a microscope to find that perfect diamond for your ring setting. Every diamond is unique! Some of the choices we can help you walk through include:

  • Diamond shape
  • the “4Cs” (cut, color, clarity, and carat weight)
  • lab-grown or natural

Stop by your local Robbins Brothers and start designing the engagement ring that she’ll wear forever!
