Casting

Once you approve the CAD, the piece is cast in your chosen metal. Our lost-wax casting guide explains the general method.

Diamond Setting

Center diamonds and melee are set from our own inventory, so sizes are matched before setting: matched melee within ±0.05–0.10 mm and matched pairs within ±0.1–0.2 mm and about one color grade. Settings include prong, bezel, halo, pavé and the other ring styles in our custom jewelry manufacturing guide.
