Catherine
Platinum & .74ct Diamond
Why Talking Is a Good Idea
Buying jewelry online is intimidating. We should know. We've been selling online for 17 years.
We've taken a totally different approach. A personal one.
Remember how experiences used to be intimate? Jewelry buying should be an intimate experience.
It isn't about having the largest selection, or selling the cheapest (i.e. low quality) jewelry. We’re not aiming to be the Amazon of jewelry. We are a family-owned jewelry store in Modesto (California) that is very picky about quality and design. That's been our calling card since 1989.
Beautiful jewelry should stir the soul. Before selecting a piece for display we ask, “How does this design make me feel?”
In a world of infinite choice, it’s nice to slow down and appreciate the work of master craftsmen.
Don’t use your credit card to buy this. Not yet.
It’s 5:40 AM in Modesto right now. Call us and see why we fell in love with this piece. One shouldn’t ever have to buy jewelry online without asking all your questions first. Oh, that’s right, that’s what makes us different from the thousands of online jewelry sites out there.
When you call you aren’t talking to an agent in a call center. Your talking to either Ron Yates, Ashton Yates-Woolley, Marissa Stewart, Mechelle Yates, or Justice Carillo at our Modesto store location.
Product Details
Fit for your princess. The Catherine is hand crafted by our master platinum smith. Built exclusively for this center diamond, so we get a perfect fit on the bezel. Made in precious platinum with the great attention to detail. Notice the fine milgrain edges - all done by hand. (By contrast, the lower quality "cast" rings have milgrain which is very muted.)
Before each diamond is set the metal underneath the stones (the seats we call it) are hand polished. This helps the small diamonds to actually have more brilliance than if the metal wasn't hand polished. Just another small attention to detail that makes the ring really come alive.
The pictures don't really show it, but the sides of the top of the ring have have beautiful pierced filigree. Also, the edges of the center head have an engraved design. These are details that a very fine hand made ring from the 1920s would have. That is how we are making our vintage inspired rings.
The center diamond came out of an old antique ring that was damaged from 1920-1930 era. It is now GIA graded as VS2 clarity and I color, a very fine diamond. It is an authentic vintage diamond that is set into a new vintage inspired ring.
Ring is size 6.0 - but can easily be resized. Also, we can custom make this ring to hold a different diamond. Contact us and let's work together!
