make mine two-tone!

Brandon's taste was well-defined. So refreshing, given how many men don't even want to THINK about what they want out of their wedding band.

The shape: classic.

Two-tone treatment: obvious and brush-finished.

Pattern: four differently-shaped waves.

Result: shown.

"keep my diamond from ending up in a cake!"

Vanessa was very clear about her needs and wants.

White metal. Diamond that's protected, since she's a pantry chef. Subtle finish. Want to show off the diamond. Nothing irregular in shape--symmetry a necessity.

Here's the result...

A 14K white gold ring with a cup into which a 1/3-carat round diamond is bezel-set. Inside of the cup sandblasted so that the diamond "pops."

Just when I thought a particular set of "druthers" couldn't be combined...

I was wrong.
