Everyone is searching for better ways to express themselves nowadays, and customization is becoming the norm.

Let's talk about the process of custom designing wedding rings.

  1. Reach out: You can call or text us regarding the custom jewelry design you had in mind at phone:-  (310) 620-3313 mail:-  (saracinosales@gmail.com).
  2. Share your vision with us: Send us drawings, similar designs, mock-ups or any other relevant information (size estimates, metal preference, diamond or precious gemstone preference, etc..) that you think we could use to help us get an accurate understanding of exactly what you are looking for.
  3. Tell us your budget: Let us know a ballpark number that you would be comfortable investing into this custom wedding ring. 
  4. Patiently wait for our response: We will respond to you as soon as possible regarding the estimate on your custom wedding band. We will try our best to get back to you in under an hour, but sometimes it may take us up to 24 hours to provide you with an accurate estimate
  5. Pay us a deposit: We will require a deposit in order to get started on your piece, so we do not spend all of the tedious hours designing the custom jewelry piece on our computer software without a small guarantee that you are a serious shopper and ready to choose Saracino Jewelry for your custom jewelry needs. 
  6. Approve the design: We will send you computer renderings of the designs that we have come up with. With these computer renderings, we will know exactly how big the piece will be, how heavy it will be, how many stones we need to set, and much more valuable information regarding your custom ring piece.

If you have a custom piece with hundreds or thousands of diamonds, sometimes it will take a little bit longer, because we have our in-house diamond setters take their time hand-setting each stone.
  8. Pay the remainder of your balance: We require an initial deposit before we start working on the computer-rendered mock-up, then you can pay the remainder of your balance the day you pick up your finished wedding ring.
