Sapphire, Emeralds and Peridot
in Hand-Engraved Ring

Sapphire Secret Garden II

A client admired our  Secret Garden design and wanted to create a special ring for his fiancée with elements that would be symbolic to her.  We first helped him select a fine cushion-cut Sapphire,  added two Emeralds and a small Peridot,  and then created this beautiful ring.  The ring is hand crafted in platinum and wonderfully hand engraved.

The ring is richly engraved with flowing leaf-like scrolls.  This style of engraving is known as "relief engraving."  Our engraver painstakingly carved away small bits of metal allowing the design to emerge in high relief.  The background was finished with a stippled, pebble-like pattern and darkened to further highlight the design.

We work with some of the finest hand engravers in the world.  Each engraver works in a unique style and is a master of his/her craft.  Their artistry is reflected in our rings.

A small rosebud is engraved on the outer walls of the bezel setting,  while the flowing leaf design is repeated along the sides of the ring.

Note the sturdy thickness of the band throughout it circumference,  ensuring many years of lasting beauty and enjoyment.  This ring was made to last several generations and become a family heirloom.

Examining the inside of the ring you can see the mastery of the craftsmanship.  The different parts of the ring are beautifully crafted and flow together.  The inner surfaces are smooth and even. An engraved flower is hidden at the base of the ring and set with a small Peridot.  The true sign of a master jeweler is the care taken with the small details and the hidden parts of a ring.

The couple for whom we created this ring loved the finished jewel.  Here is what they had to say ...

My immediate and forever lasting impression of the ring is the attention to detail and the so very unique design of the ring.

The art work expresses just how much you care! Also, the roses, leaves and flowers are true representations of us a couple.

I feel proud wearing my beautiful engagement ring! A popular response to the ring is "It's so beautiful and must have a lot of meaning!" which indeed this ring does!

Yes, we both love the ring and thank you so much for helping me create it.
