A Tanzanite Engagement Ring?
Gemstones are a popular choice for engagement rings, but Tanzanite isn't one of our recommended choices due to durability issues. For some advice about choosing the center stone in your gemstone engagement ring, please read this post.
Why Distinction Jewelry?
Distinction Jewelry is a US microbusiness established in 2006. Our jewelry is crafted in the US from recycled precious metals and ethically-sourced gems. We will always provide you with the quality and radiant beauty of clean, artisan-crafted luxury you can feel good about wearing. As a design-focused company, we strive to present you with designs that are exciting and unique, with a fresh aesthetic that catches the eye and sets you apart.
DJ will never be your cheapest option, because we don't exploit cheap labor or materials. Even mundane details like the polishing compounds we use are the best on the market, used by top luxury watchmakers and jewelers. We design for lasting durability, not just a fast sale; we're not going to sell you a fragile opal in an engagement ring or a thin, hollow band that won't last. The goal is an exquisitely crafted piece that will be admired by future generations.
We use ethically-sourced gems from small businesses and individuals around the world. If we buy from small American companies, and individual miners in Africa, and small family businesses in India, our purchases can boost more than the economy: they can boost people. Gems that are hand-collected, responsibly mined or lab-created all minimize environmental impact. Your jewelry is always created from US-recycled and US-refined metals. "New" gold used by many major jewelry retailers cuts costs but supports toxic, environmentally destructive mining practices and in some cases, slave labor.
Will you join us in building the world you want, one choice at a time?
Production:
Ring images are photorealistic renders from my CAD system. Consider them a really amazing preview sketch! Diamonds tend to render accurately, but colored gemstones are often markedly different in appearance from the renders. Whenever possible I’ve included an example photo of the actual gem variety for a more realistic presentation. Unique designs usually include a photograph of the exact gem that will be used in the ring; please rely on it rather than the renders to visualize what your gem will look like.
Each ring is made to order in exactly your size using a combination of a sophisticated jeweler's CAD system, modern CAM milling technology and old-school hands-on artisan goldsmithing. It takes an average of only 3-8 weeks from the time your order is finalized.
Custom Rings:
Embrace the real you with an exclusive, custom-made, designer ring. Proposing? Your one-in-a-million deserves to say yes to a designer ring that will never be found on clearance in a smudged shop window. If nothing you see is quite right, and you want a ring that really speaks to your heart, we can help.
In addition to an extensive gem inventory, we work with fair-trade / direct-trade gem sources and reputable diamond dealers worldwide. From Mossanite to rare gems, your ideal center stone is within our grasp!
Express your individual style in platinum, palladium, or gold from 10k to 22k, even exotic golds like rose or green gold. Engrave it with your own handwriting, or choose a font and fill color (band width permitting). If our signature mirror polish finish doesn't do it for you, pick from eight different surface textures. Hammered and satin are the most popular.
