switching stones

Today a couple of ladies came in to shop for something new and glittery. They had a good look at our display of rings and things and one of them fell in love with this diamond ring. Now they said they were looking for something different and eye-catching. This ring was yellow gold with a stunning centre third carat diamond, two 10 pointers and some more accenting on the sides. The stones were set in an unusual off centre recurve fashion and in yellow 14K gold. But the thing that made this ring unique and different is the little back story. When it came to me, it originally had a cubic zirconia in the center but natural diamonds on the sides. I thought it deserved much better than this so I hand picked a beautiful diamond with a very good cut and had my jeweler replace it with the cz. He also re-tipped the mount and put a high polish on it. The end result is stunning. Now it is on the finger of a lady who fell in love with it. Very unique rings can be found in our shop becuase each one came in individually and had a back story.
