Shortly after I graduated from college, I found myself in a situation that many others finish up in, engaged and then shortly married. Obviously I was younger, naive, and very broke. A few years of work and a bit of wisdom later on I went back into a well known jewelry store in my area searching for more jewelry pieces. Since I wasn't necessarily a frightened, young, and broke kid anymore, I took the chance to essentially scan the store. While I was looking out for a diamond necklace, the only thing I had not seen when I was here before were ring settings without stones.
The few years before this when I was hunting for engagement rings, I'd never seen ring settings like this before. The salesperson was quite useful in explaining the ring settings this time around.
He explained the thoughts and ins and outs of the ring settings without stones. I have listed a couple of his points that stood out and stayed with me.
- Many rings are size specific to the size of stone to be mounted in it.
- Many rings without stones were also customized by the jeweler onsite.
- Rings without stones allowed for unique viewing by the customer to see the ring's subtleties and detailed handiwork.
- These rings also make allowances for mounting of family jewels and stones that have been handed down from generation to generation. You can keep enjoying family heirlooms without worry of them becoming outmoded in appearance because of the older settings.
- Seeing rings with no stones allows the purchaser to find or describe whatever she or he is looking to have customised without the precious stone getting in the way. Like changing an existing design by making a small change here or change there. This is a great way to have a true one-in-a-million ring.
As much as I myself detest salesmen, a few of them can be amazing and supply everybody with some great information without being a stereotypical sales guy attempting to make a commission. Although I wasn't in the market for a ring, he also let me know about the next step which was buying new precious stones or using family pieces that were too outmoded to be practical.
