The simplest way to make a custom designed jewelry is to buy a diamond and a ready made setting separately. The designer then modify the mounting according to the customers taste and needs. Sometimes a customer will combine a diamond from an already made ring with a mounting of another. He can buy them separately and have the jeweler make him a ring that will combine the two. Another option when going custom is to have an idea a theme, or an inspiration that the customer shares with the jewelry designer. The designer creates a few variations until the customer feels that he got the perfect ring.

The decision will depends on the client’s priorities If the customer is willing or able to pay a premium price for a special ring, a longer creative process an aesthetic quality, and attention to details, he should go with a custom designed ring.
