The Diamond Spot Custom Jewelry Designs
The Diamond Spot | Custom Jewelry Designs
Always a big part of the jewelry world, custom jewelry has only recently gotten the attention it truly deserves. As diamonds and gemstones are unique, so too are client’s demands and tastes, and customers now seek a more unique, personal jewel in a world of mass production. At Diamond Spot, we are all too aware that no two diamonds are exactly alike, and diamonds– much like human beings– are totally unique. Thus, The Diamond Spot has been the preeminent destination amongst Boston Custom Jewelers for jewelry customization and design! From GIA-certified Diamonds to colored gemstones such as emeralds and rubies, The Diamond Spot can undertake any custom jewelry project, no matter how complex.
Firstly, as all jewelry lovers know, a diamond is forever. Born from billions of years of pressure and with every stone being entirely unique, it is an emotional purchase to begin with– much more so when it’s for an engagement proposal. A fine jewel is one of the highest ticket items one will purchase in their lives and it will keep/increase value throughout the course of the client’s lifetime, and thus buyers want to make sure they nail this part of the process. With the breadth of options in the market, finding an existing, mass-manufactured jewel for your brand new, totally unique diamond or gemstone frankly doesn’t do the stone justice, as it was not built to suit one specific stone, but rather a common archetype. Through subtle changes, quirks, and personalizations, The Diamond Spot Boston offers truly specialized and unique jewels– from custom engagement rings to custom jewelry designs and everything in between.
While custom jewels are the preferred way to adorn and complement your brand-new diamond or gemstone, there is also a certain amount of value-added– sentimental and otherwise– when commissioning a custom jewel. For example, clients may choose to add gemstones with specific colors or shapes, such as baguette-cut emeralds or additional loose diamonds, to further fashion the jewel of their dreams. Clients can also choose specific center-stones (such as GIA certified diamonds) that fit personal requirements for momentous occasions, such as being a specific size or shape. For instance, The Diamond Spot once had a customer who planned his potential wedding date for January 17th. The GIA Certified Diamond he selected was exactly 1.17 carats– an eternal reminder of the date of their very special day. Other clients have selected different diamond cuts instead of opting for the classic “Round-Brilliant Cut”, selecting shapes such as oval-cut or heart-shape to further personalize the symbol of their eternal love. We even have brave young couples choosing multi-stone rings or gemstone engagement rings!
Outside of engagement rings, personalization to individual tastes is the predominant reason for clients opting for customization, though most don’t realize the true incentive to customize a jewel: heirlooms. A heirloom is defined as “a valuable object that has belonged to a family for several generations”, such as a grandparent’s watch or a family portrait. While customizing a jewel– engagement or otherwise– makes a jewel feel truly personalized, passing it down to your next of kin decades later continues the story of your family, your heritage, and your eternal love that brought the jewel into your family many years prior. Heirlooms increase in personal and sentimental value every year, though many heirlooms are set with quality gemstones or metals that subsequently increase in value as the decades pass. A time-honored heirloom will carry a family’s story, history, and culture– a diamond or gemstone jewel heirloom, along with conveying the family heritage, has also probably multiplied in monetary value several times over and provides the new generation of the family with a suite of wealth and value.
Honored by the opportunity to create personally commissioned family heirlooms, The Diamond Spot Boston not only specializes in custom jewelry design but also in the redesign and repurposing of family heirlooms! Customers can bring in their existing heirlooms and have us redesign the jewel, add certain personalizations, and more! For example, we recently had a longtime client bring us her heirloom diamond ring, originally gifted by her grandmother. Not enamored by the outmoded style, we redesigned it into a diamond signet ring that she wears every day, leaving her with a brand new jewel and sentimental value intact!
As global trends change, so must the jewelry world follow, and while customizing your jewel to your exact preferences is not a novel concept, it is a rapidly growing market segment. We at The Diamond Spot are proud to be considered leaders in custom jewelry design amongst Boston Jewelry Stores. Located at the heart of The Jewelry Building Boston, our proximity to and relationships with expert jewelers, suppliers, and designers of all categories of jewelry give us the access and networking we need to undertake any custom jewelry project.
