While there are grooms that simply buy a ring from the local jewelry store, a growing number of men are taking engagement ring shopping to a new level to guarantee they find the perfect one of a kind engagement ring!If that is you, than here are 3 ideas you may want to consider:
Unique Engagement Ring Idea #1: Design Your Own Engagement Ring
Using CAD/CAM technology you can now bring your one-of-a-kind engagement ring design to life. Be sure to have a rough sketch, or pictures of the different elements you want included in your design. This will help get your local jeweler started (email us to find a jeweler near you at info@jabel.com). This is an excellent way to get exactly what you want, but be warned, to get the perfect design can take extra time. Start the design process a couple months ahead of your big proposal date so you have time for edits and corrections.
Unique Engagement Ring Idea #2: Adding Secret Details
Sometimes putting a unique twist on your engagement ring is as simple as modifying the design. Try burnish setting a gemstone inside of the band to commemorate the month you first met (using that month's birthstone) or engraving a special message inside the band.
Unique Engagement Ring Idea #3: Estate Engagement Rings
Antique engagement rings are very popular right now. They are unique and are sure to make a BIG statement. However, read up on picking the right ring or you may end up with hefty repair bills as there are some serious concerns that can arise when your shopping for vintage engagement rings.
