Have you ever wondered how long it actually takes to create a custom engagement ring? The process might seem complex, but at Diamond Exchange Houston, it’s faster and smoother than you think!
While most jewelers take between 4 to 12 weeks, our expert craftsmen at Diamond Exchange Houston can usually finish a custom engagement ring in just 3 to 4 weeks — without compromising on design, quality, or attention to detail.
Step 1: Designing Your Dream Ring
Creating your dream ring begins with inspiration. You can explore styles online or use our online ring design tool to customize your ring’s diamond shape, setting, metal type, and even engraving.
Step 2: Consultation with Our Experts
After your ideas are ready, you’ll meet our diamond experts for a personalized consultation. Together, you’ll finalize the diamond, setting, and every fine detail that makes your ring one of a kind.
Step 3: CAD Design (3D Ring Model)
Our designer will then create a CAD (Computer-Aided Design) — a 3D model that lets you preview and refine your ring before production begins. This stage usually takes about one week.
Step 4: Crafting Your Custom Ring
Once you approve the CAD, our jewelers begin handcrafting your engagement ring. Within one to two weeks, your unique design is brought to life using premium materials and expert artistry.
Step 5: Your Dream Ring is Ready!
After the final polish and inspection, your custom engagement ring is ready to wear — a timeless symbol of your love and commitment.
