Jerod Buchta
An Engagement Ring for Ashley
Jerod has found his person! He was originally looking at a lab-grown diamond but has discovered the value of a natural mined diamond as the symbol of their love. He sees the value in working with an independent jeweler versus a large corporation that values his trust over profits.
Vision: Timeless oval engagement ring with a hidden halo.
Metal: Platinum.
Ring Size: 6
Timeline: On July 9th, the timeline changed from around Christmas to the next month and a half due to a scheduling issue with an approximate due date of Friday, August 23rd.
Rebecca feels like one month is an appropriate timeline to complete the project. The one month (30 day) timeline begins when Jerod pays the down payment. Rebecca will do everything possible to keep the project on the timeline and will prompt Jerod as necessary to make decisions that could impede the progress towards the due date.
Let's look at some ideas and diamonds!

Oval Diamond with Hidden Halo • Platinum • classic & refined
A discussed, no diamonds on the prongs as it is not a secure design.
A. 1/3ct Diamond & Platinum Ring with Hidden Halo
SI1-2 Clarity, G-H Color, Set in Platinum, includes diamond setting and ring sizing. There is plenty of room to change the diamond size in the future if desired.
$1858
B. 1/4ct Diamond & Platinum Ring with Hidden Halo
SI1-2 Clarity, G-H Color, Set in Platinum, includes diamond setting and ring sizing. There is plenty of room to change the diamond size in the future if desired.
$1608
C. 3/8ct Diamond & Platinum Ring with Hidden Halo
SI1-2 Clarity, G-H Color, Set in Platinum, includes diamond setting and ring sizing. This one does need a little extra time as each one is made to order. It is a bit more substantial in the weight of the ring and I really like the style of the head with the V shape.

D. 1/4ct Oval Side Accent Diamond & Platinum Ring with Hidden Halo
There are only two photos because I can make some changes to this ring where we have the hidden halo as shown above with the oval diamond accents on the side. I do not like the way the center diamond is set right now as it is way too high and lacking the hidden halo but I thought it was a nice concept.
SI1-2 Clarity, G-H Color, Set in Platinum, includes diamond setting and ring sizing.
$1925
E. 1/3ct Double Hidden Halo with Accent Diamonds in Platinum
This is something a little different and very substantial! Instead of one hidden halo, there are two! This is a thicker ring so it is a little more expensive but it is definitely a gorgeous piece that would really compliment the center stone being between 1.20-1.50ct.
SI1-2 Clarity, G-H Color, Set in Platinum, includes diamond setting and ring sizing.
$2059
F. 3/8ct Oval Side Accent Diamond & Platinum Ring with Edwardian Style Hidden Halo
This is a little and unique version of the hidden halo, which is kind of fun! The accent diamonds do not stick out too far from around the edge of the center oval diamond, just a little bit.
SI1-2 Clarity, G-H Color, Set in Platinum, includes diamond setting and ring sizing.
$2173
