Creating a custom piece for a client using existing stones is a great way to turn out beautiful pieces of jewelry.

This ring by jeweler Ron Finch is a piece he created for a customer using a large aquamarine stone. The stone, which measure approximately 18mm x 14mm, was provided to Finch by the customer. She purchased the gemstone while on vacation and brought it to Finch to create a a custom ring.

After consulting the client on what she wanted, and taking into consideration the large size of the gem, Finch and his customer decided on this modern and elegant cathedral style. The thirty-eight round diamonds accent the sides of the 14k white gold, with a total weight of 0.52 carats. This ring is a beautiful example of custom-created work.
