Step 3 Casting & Setting
Once the design is finalized, the first step involves creating a mold of the ring using traditional techniques or 3D printing technology. This mold is then used to cast the ring in the desired metal, such as gold, silver, or platinum, using techniques like lost-wax casting. After casting, the ring undergoes a series of refining processes to achieve the desired finish and texture. Once the ring's structure is perfected, gemstones are meticulously set into place.
Whether it's a single solitaire diamond or an intricate arrangement of colored gemstones, each stone is carefully placed and secured by skilled artisans. Setting techniques such as prong, bezel, or pave are employed depending on the design and aesthetic preferences. Finally, the ring undergoes a thorough inspection to ensure its quality and durability before being polished to perfection. The result is a stunning, one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry that embodies the unique vision and craftsmanship of both the designer and the wearer.
