Custom jewelry is more than just a piece of gold or platinum; it is a story. At The Top Jewelers, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to own a piece that is uniquely theirs.
Whether you are looking to create a one-of-a-kind engagement ring or you want to repurpose an heirloom into something modern, our custom design process is built on collaboration, transparency, and craftsmanship.
The journey begins with a personal consultation. During this meeting, we listen to your ideas, look at your inspirations, and discuss your lifestyle. However, the most exciting part of this initial phase is the Stone Review and Selection.
Unlike online “big box” stores where you buy a diamond based on a certificate alone, we invite you to sit down and view a curated selection of gemstones and diamonds in person.
Under the guidance of our expert staff, you will learn how to use a jeweler’s loupe to see the unique characteristics of each stone. We discuss the “Four Cs,” but more importantly, we help you find the stone that has the right “personality” for your specific design. Our knowledgeable staff guides you on stone durability and structural integrity to ensure your design isn’t just beautiful, but also wearable for years to come.
After the stones are chosen, we utilize a mix of traditional hand-sketching and modern technology to visualize the piece. This level of transparency is rare in the industry. You aren’t just ordering a product from a catalog; you are participating in the birth of a new heirloom.
From the initial wax carving or 3D model to the final setting of your hand-selected stones, our Arlington-based artisans ensure every detail is perfect. If you’ve ever dreamt of a piece of jewelry that you simply can’t find in a store, it’s time to discover the possibilities of custom design at The Top Jewelers.
