Personal and Beautiful Custom Designed Earrings from Roman Jewelers
Whose initials are DJM? They belong to one of the customers of Roman Jewelers. Her husband asked us to make a pair of unique, one-of-a-kind custom cluster diamond earrings for her, but with a caveat: he wanted to incorporate her initials into the design. He also wanted a classic look, along with a cluster of diamonds set so closely together that they would appear as one large round diamond.
How does a custom jewelry designer satisfy both requests—a classic cluster of diamonds comprising a circle of diamonds and three initials, all in one design? Is it even possible? For an experienced jeweler familiar with custom design challenges, it absolutely is. And here is the solution we came up with.
The front of the earring is a cluster of diamonds set using a technique we call “invisible setting.” With this technique, the diamonds are set extremely close to each other, with prongs visible only on the outer circumference of the earring. If you look very closely at the image, you truly cannot see prongs between the diamonds in the center.
Now for the interesting part. Turn the earring upside-down and look at the back. Do you see the three initials engraved on the reverse side? We cut the initials directly into the metal on the back of the earring.
These initials represent the first letters of the first, middle, and last name of the wife of the gentleman who ordered these earrings. But to us, they also carry a hidden message:
“I love you. I want you to have a truly unique piece of jewelry. These were made especially for you, and only with you in mind. Wear them in good health.”
