CHOOSE A CENTER STONE—OR BRING YOUR OWN DIAMOND

Choosing your center stone is important because it will be the focal point of your custom engagement ring. We believe in the importance of empowering our clients with the knowledge to make wise and informed decisions when purchasing a diamond. All of our diamonds are certified.

Already have a diamond? Whether it's a family stone or one you've purchased separately, we can incorporate your own diamond into a brand-new custom setting.

DESIGN WITH CAD RENDERINGS & SKETCHES

After you've chosen your center stone, it's time to design your ring! With the use of sketches and/or computer-aided design (CAD) renderings, you'll work closely with your consultant to finalize your design.

After finalizing your design, you may want to see a 3D wax model of your ring before it's made. This optional step allows you to see what the ring would look like in person before we begin fabrication.

FABRICATION

Once you have finished laying out the design for your custom engagement ring, our goldsmiths begin fabricating your ring, casting the metal, and setting your stones. This is where your engagement ring comes to life.

What Our clients Are Saying
Go to ADX to get your engagement ring!!! We worked with Vanessa to create my dream ring, and compared to all of the places in Calgary we visited, Vanessa immediately took the time to truly understand what we were looking for, sourced the best diamond on the market, and dedicated time to modify our design countless times! We were incredibly confident in her expertise, and the finished ring was better than I could have ever imagined!

I had an engagement ring custom‑made here, and the entire experience was fantastic. Kristen L helped me through the process and was able to bring my vision to life at a very reasonable price. The process was smooth from start to finish.They were clear about timelines, communicated really well, and made everything simple and stress‑free.The final result was even better than I expected. The craftsmanship, detail, and overall quality of the ring are outstanding. I’m extremely happy with how it turned out and would recommend them to anyone looking for a custom piece or something truly special.

I recently purchased an engagement ring from ADX, Kristen was the absolute best person I could have asked for in guiding me through this once in a life time purchase. From the very first consultation appointment, Kristen’s professionalism and passion was obvious. She walked me through every detail in selecting a ring and shared her diamond knowledge which helped me finding the perfect diamond within the wealth of their inventory list. I will strongly recommend anyone that’s in the market for rings or other jewelry pieces to visit ADX, especially with Kristen!
— Chris L.
Had the best experience with Vanessa at ADX as she helped me create the perfect engagement ring for my fiancé. She is very kind, patient, knowledgeable and you can tell she genuinely cares about providing the best service/product while not pushing the most expensive options. Would highly recommend coming here! Thank you again Vanessa and team!!

HOW LONG DOES A CUSTOM ENGAGEMENT RING TAKE?
