A Knife-Edge Pavé Wedding Ring

This custom knife-edge pavé wedding ring was for a good friend of mine. She has a classic Tiffany solitaire engagement ring with a knife-edge shank and requested a pavé band to match. A knife-edge ring with pavé means there's actually two rows of diamonds on this ring - one on each side of the shank.  There's a small sizing bar at the bottom of her wedding ring, which I always recommend. Most people experience weight fluctuations or joint swelling at some point in their lifetime, so it's always a good idea to have a little room to adjust.

My client and her fiancé both love the outdoors.

To celebrate their shared passion, I designed their wedding rings to reference both mountains and trees. Her double chevron wedding ring subtly alludes to the mountains, while his ring has a scenic treeline design. Lovely, right? If you're looking for a unique engagement ring, or you want to take gemstones you already have and make a special, new piece of jewelry for yourself,...
