GOLD RINGS
Gold rings are made each and everyday in our one of a kind jewelry store in Danbury CT. Our expert jewelers have been making gold rings on location for over three decades for customers throughout Fairfield County CT, in addition to Westchester and Putnam Counties in NY.
Since we make gold rings everyday on location you can have the gold ring of your choice in any color precious metal. If you like white gold rings, we can make the style you prefer in 18k white gold, or as a 14k white gold ring. Likewise, if the styles you are drawn to in our showroom are displayed in white, but you prefer yellow, we can make the very same design you see into a yellow gold ring. 14k gold rings and 18k gold rings can be made in colors other than traditional yellow and white. Rose gold, for example, is created by combining pink gold and green gold rings for rich bronze tones.
Over the past decade, trends in jewelry have transitioned from yellow to white in popularity. Today people are wearing both white and yellow gold rings, and many are looking to integrate both colors into their jewelry wardrobe.
Throughout this period, the two tone ring has become very popular. Two tone rings include the marriage of yellow gold and white gold to give representation of both metals. Two tone rings are ideal for integrating your yellow and white gold jewelry, so that they may be worn together.
Along with more traditional 14k and 18k gold rings, we also make rings in higher karat gold. Many of the designer rings in our showroom are crafted as platinum and 18karat gold rings, as well as platinum and 24k gold ring designs. Upon request our craftsmen can make most jewelry in the karat gold of your choice.
Next time you are looking at jewelry, remember, you can always broaden your horizons. At Jewelry Designs, you can buy your next gold ring in any karat or color combination you can dream of directly from the jewelers creating it.
PLATINUM RINGS
There is no metal used in jewelry more prized than platinum. Platinum rings are the benchmark for fine jewelry. Along with the natural beauty of glistening platinum, comes its extreme durability. Though soft, platinum rings are durable due to the malleability of platinum. The use of platinum in rings provides insurance against the metal fatigue that plagues other precious metal jewelry. Since rings tend to get a lot of wear and tear, platinum is the metal of choice for securing precious gemstones in rings.
In most jewelry stores your choice of platinum rings are limited, but at Jewelry Designs we make platinum rings. As your jeweler, you will never be limited to the selection of platinum ring designs that you have to choose from. In addition to our large selection of platinum ring designs on hand, keep in mind that nearly every ring in our showroom is available for make in precious platinum. From platinum settings with gemstones, to platinum fashion rings, you will see them all on display in our gallery.
Working with platinum is an art. Platinum melts at extremely high temperatures, nearly double the temperature of gold. Only elite master jewelers are capable of creating handmade platinum rings from this dense precious metal. We are proud to say that the platinum rings and jewelry you will see in our showroom is the work of masters. At Jewelry Designs we make platinum jewelry everyday. For over 30 years our expert jewelers have been making platinum ring designs on location. To see our platinum ring collection visit our one of a kind jewelry store in Danbury CT, just over the New York line in Western Connecticut.
RUBY RINGS
If red is your favorite color then you are bound to love ruby rings. Ruby rings are regarded by most as the most valuable of all of the precious stone rings. The ruby gemstone is corundum, which is essentially the same as the sapphire. As a matter of fact, rubies are red sapphires. The value of high grade ruby rings, large Burmese ruby rings in particular, surpass that of all other colored gemstones.
Along with the brilliance and vibrant red color of rubies comes its durability. The featured gem in a ruby ring is second in durability to the diamond, making the ruby an excellent jewelry item to be passed on for generations. The value of a ruby ring is determined by the brilliance of the ruby, combined with the color and tone of the gem. Intense red ruby rings, with strong brilliance, will be more valuable than opaque red rubies, or stones that are tinted pink or purple. Natural ruby rings that exhibit deep red color, brilliance, and high clarity, without the traditional heat treatments performed at the mines, trade at a substantially higher cost than those used in traditional fine jewelry.
At Jewelry Designs we have a wide variety of ruby rings and ruby jewelry for you to choose from, including prized Burmese ruby rings. You will see gold ruby rings, white gold ruby rings, 18k gold ruby rings, and ruby rings in platinum.
If after viewing all of the ruby rings by the artisans of Jewelry Designs you do not find the ring of your dreams, we will make one for you. You can choose from the collection of loose rubies from our vault. After selecting your favorite gem we will make a custom ruby ring just for you.
