Jewelry is a major purchase that shouldn’t be taken lightly. It requires months of savings and is something that will last forever, unlike most of your wardrobe. It can be passed down from generations and tells stories—from proposals to love stories to heartbreaks, every piece has something behind it. This is why it is important to buy only top-quality jewelry that comes from quality designers. It’s worth the price.
Designers are artists. Their pieces are detailed and take center stage. They take pride in their work and just like in the art world, their pieces are acclaimed and prized. You’d take a piece of art and hang it in your home, just as you would take your wedding ring and display it on your hand. It’s art that you’ll wear for the rest of your life and hopefully pass down to the next generation.
Many designers will make custom jewelry designs and make pieces on commission. You can be assured that no one in the world will have something like your piece of jewelry and it is only top quality. Not working with a quality designer will mean you are taking a chance that it may not last.
Jewelry designers prize craftsmanship and materials; they don’t use lower quality metals and stones to cheapen it. They take great value in what they do. They also have zero-tolerance policies on conflict diamonds, so you can have piece of mind. Nothing was made from unethically sourced materials.
Making a jewelry purchase is something that comes from the heart. An engagement ring demonstrates your desire to spend the rest of your life with someone; therefore, you need to be very methodical in your purchase. You should purchase a piece based on the quality of workmanship and not based on practicality.
