Investment Guide
Every piece at The Diamond Edit is designed and crafted to order.
Rather than fixed pricing, we work within investment ranges based on your design vision, center stone, and level of detail.
This guide is here to help you feel confident that your dream piece aligns with your comfort zone before you inquire. on availability, style, or even provide a review.
Final investment depends on stone size, shape, metal choice, and design complexity.
What Influences Investment
-
Center Stone
Shape, size, color, clarity, and whether the stone is sourced or client-provided.
-
Setting & Design Complexity
Hand-set pavé, custom galleries, halos, and sculptural elements require additional craftsmanship.
-
Metal Choice
Platinum, 18k gold, mixed metals, and specialty finishes each impact time and materials.
-
Customization Level
Modifications to existing designs vs. fully bespoke pieces.
So Let's Talk Prices
Because each piece is custom, pricing reflects overall design scope rather than individual components. Investment varies based on stone selection, metal choice, and design complexity.
There is no minimum investment required to begin a design. I’ve created pieces at a wide range of price points, including designs under $1,000, and approach each project with the same level of care and intention.
The examples below are provided to illustrate how different design choices can align with different budgets. Each design can be thoughtfully adjusted to fit within a specific investment range.
