How to Create a Custom Engagement Ring: Step-by-Step Guide
Your engagement ring should be as unique as your love story. At Maytal Hannah, we believe in creating timeless, one-of-a-kind rings that reflect your personal style, story, and vision. If you’ve been dreaming of designing your own ring, our custom process makes it both simple and special.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create a custom engagement ring that’s truly yours.
Step 1: Get Inspired
Start by gathering inspiration. Whether it’s a classic solitaire, vintage halo, or a modern hidden halo design, explore different styles, gemstones, and settings. Pinterest, Instagram, and our Maytal Hannah Engagement Collection are great places to start.
Think about:
- Metal type (yellow gold, white gold, platinum, etc.)
- Diamond shape (round, oval, pear, emerald, cushion)
- Setting style (prong, bezel, pave, tension)
- Personal touches (hidden messages, heirloom stones, etc.)
💡 Tip: Save photos and make notes of what stands out to you.
Step 2: Schedule a Consultation
The magic begins with a one-on-one consultation with Maytal Hannah herself. During this session, we’ll:
- Learn about your style and preferences
- Discuss budget and timelines
- Answer any questions about design, diamonds, and craftsmanship
We work with clients all over the world, offering both in-person and virtual consultations.
👉 Schedule your consultation here and let’s bring your vision to life.
Step 3: Select Your Diamond or Gemstone
Choosing the center stone is one of the most exciting parts of the process. At Maytal Hannah, we source only conflict-free, ethically sourced, and GIA-certified diamonds and gemstones.
We’ll guide you through the 4Cs (cut, color, clarity, and carat weight) and help you select a stone that best fits your design and budget.
Interested in something different? We also offer sapphires, emeralds, and other unique gems for a truly personal touch.
Step 4: Approve the Design
Once we’ve finalized your preferences, we will create a hand sketch of your custom design. You’ll have a chance to review every detail, make changes, and approve the final version before we begin crafting.
We’ll also discuss any custom engravings or symbolic elements you want to include.
Step 5: Handcrafted With Love
This is where your dream becomes a reality. Our master artisans begin crafting your custom engagement ring with the highest level of precision, care, and artistry.
Each Maytal Hannah piece is handcrafted in Los Angeles, ensuring exceptional quality and timeless beauty.
Step 6: The Reveal
