LEARN MOREHow We Work With You
When you choose Lauren B for a custom ring design, we want you to be delighted with a piece of jewelry that is as unique as you are. Our dedicated team will help you through every step of the process, including the initial one-on-one consultation where we refine your choices for the center stone, setting design, timeframe, and budget to the delivery of your custom ring.
Ring Design
The setting serves as the foundation for your custom engagement ring design. At Lauren B, our team of design consultants and expert jewelers excels in crafting the perfect setting tailored precisely to your preferences. Regardless of the size or type of center stone you choose, our expertise lies in transforming your vision into reality through a custom setting made just for you.
Choose from one of our existing designs on our website, or show us inspiration from other sources, such as magazines or social media, that highlight different styles so that we can create your dream ring.
Center-Stone Selection
Choose from our selection of natural and lab-created diamonds, as well as Moissanite and colored gemstones, to match your exact specifications. We’ll hand-select stones from our extensive inventory based on your preferences and budget that you can view in-store or online via high-definition video.
Production & Delivery
Once we finalize the design and you select the center stone, a 50% deposit is required to secure the stone and begin work. Our jewelers hand-make every ring in New York City to the exact stone dimensions, guaranteeing a perfect fit. When your custom ring is complete, we can arrange for pickup in our Manhattan showroom or ship it to your door via one of our secure, insured shipping partners. Every custom engagement ring arrives with an appraisal, warranty, and grading report.
