Determine your
budget. Diamonds can be found in a range of prices—and we can
help you find one that suits your taste and budget. Two to four
month's salary is the commonly accepted guideline for determining
how much you should spend on an engagement ring.
2. SET AN APPOINTMENT & VISIT OUR OFFICES
Call Shapiro Diamonds to set up an appointment to view our current
inventory. We may ask you a few questions regarding your desired
diamond.
Visit our wholesale
office/design studio. During your visit, we will provide a diamond
education consultation and jointly determine your comfort level
with imperfections and color of your diamond. We will show you a
selection of loose diamonds available for purchase.
During your
visit you will not be pressured in any way. We are a friendly environment,
and here to help you, rather than to "pressure sell" you.
In fact, we welcome you to visit our offices to learn about diamonds
even if you are not ready to purchase a diamond yet.
3. DECIDE
UPON A SETTING
If you have a picture of the mounting you'd like, please bring it
with you. If not, we can provide over 1,000
pictures of mountings we've created. You can select a mounting
we've created in the past, or, we can jointly create a custom
mounting. Click here for help selecting
a setting.
4. APPROVAL
PROCESS
If we are creating a custom mounting, revisit our wholesale office/design
studio to view and approve your mounting. This will be done by viewing
virtual electronic images of your
ring (using our C.A.D. system), or by viewing a wax
model. You can make any adjustments, changes to the ring at
this time.
5. PICK UP
YOUR PIECE
Upon completion of your engagement ring, you will again visit our
wholesale office/design studio to pick up your ring. You will be
provided an appraisal for your ring, along with instructions on
how to care for and insure your ring.
6. PRESENT
AND ENJOY
Propose and enjoy. All engagement rings can be resized after proposal
at no extra charge to you.
