3 Tips for Buying a Custom Engagement Ring
If you’re thinking of proposing to your loved one, you may be thinking about getting a totally unique and custom engagement ring. There are lots of choice and small details to remember when making an engagement ring purchase, but following these top three tips can help to make the experience stress-free.
1. Start Early
Start thinking about the sort of ring you’re looking for before deciding on a budget or choosing a jeweller. It’s important to understand that you may be able to fit your ring of choice around your budget and must always find a jeweller who is willing to create the ring you want. If you’re feeling artistic, why not try sketching your own ring design? It will feel even more personal and created by you.
2. Decide on a Budget
Buying an engagement ring can be a pricey affair, but it’s important to understand that a custom made ring can be even more expensive, depending on what it is you want. The key is to make sure you are comfortable and open with what you can afford- don’t opt for anything that is beyond your budget; you have a wedding to pay for too! Besides, an engagement ring is not about the price you paid.
3. Choose a Reputable Jeweller
Spend some time researching a reputable jeweller for the occasion. Look online or ask friends, family and other brides for personal recommendations. Look for a jeweller who may have previously created a similar style to what you are looking for, as it will be easier for them to see your ultimate vision. Here at Cuttings, we’re happy to make custom and bespoke jewellery pieces to customer designs and ideas.
There are also several other factors that need to be taken into account, for example, the metal, diamonds and gems and size of the ring needed. At Cuttings, we can help you understand exactly what is needed to create the perfect custom engagement ring for your partner.
