The use of COLORED GEMSTONES is the new focus by the designers going forward into 2018. Bands with the various colored stones can be stacked against the engagement ring to complement the diamonds. Many customers have been asking for fine colored gems such as Rubies and multicolored Sapphires for engagement ring. They want to create looks to suit their individual styles. We are excited to see the return of gemstones for the solitaire focus of the bridal jewelry. Trends are also showing the mix of color with diamonds. Let us help our customers create custom and memorable pieces to their desires.
