I highly recommend the custom jeweler. I wanted to replace my engagement ring and told them exactly what I wanted. They gave me options of sizes of stones and what stones to put around my band . They also gave me options of what I could do with my old engagement ring. They turned it into a classic pendant necklace that is timeless. What I liked the most was their patience when I was deciding which options were best for me. I never felt pressured

Diamond Cut Grades: How Sparkle + Cut Shape Your Custom Design
The way a diamond is cut has the biggest impact on how it looks in real life—its sparkle, brightness, and overall personality. Here’s how each cut grade plays into your custom ring, pendant, or earring design.
Exceptional brilliance and fire with even, bright light return from every angle.
Clean, crisp sparkle that looks lively in all lighting—perfect for center stones.
Clients who want the most radiant look and prioritize cut quality.
Strong brilliance and fire with only minor differences from Excellent to the naked eye.
Beautiful, lively sparkle that performs very well in everyday lighting.
Custom pieces where you want a balance of high performance and budget flexibility.
Noticeable sparkle with some areas of darkness or reduced light return.
Still attractive, especially in smaller stones or designs with multiple diamonds.
Accent stones, pavé, or clients who prefer to prioritize size over top-tier cut.
Limited brilliance; the diamond can appear slightly dull or flat.
Less “wow” factor, especially in larger sizes or center stones.
Only specific design situations where cut is less visible and budget is primary.
Dull appearance with obvious dark areas and minimal fire.
Often looks smaller and less lively than its carat weight suggests.
Generally not recommended for custom fine jewelry at The Custom Jeweler.
