CELTIC KNOT ENGAGEMENT & WEDDING RING SET

One-carat Moissanite, channel-set diamonds, and emerald accents on the engagement ring, and emerald accents in the wedding bands. The bands are styled to be worn alone or surrounding the engagement ring. This is a more budget-friendly version of one of our most popular engagement rings, sold here as a set of three with two coordinating wedding bands.

The Triquetra is a Celtic symbol of unbreakable protection and eternity. Depending on the individual belief system, the three interwoven knots represent the Holy Trinity or the Triple Goddess. In our ring, the two knots represent the two souls bound together by unbreakable love under sacred protection.

Gemstones:

►In the engagement ring:

• 6.5mm Forever One colorless C&C Moissanite, Hearts and Arrows cut, including ID card. This is equivalent in size to a 1-carat diamond. We highly recommend this particular grade of Moissanite as the best 100% conflict-free diamond alternative. Other grades, even of Forever One branded Moissanite, can look slightly dull, but colorless provides true diamond brilliance.
• 10 round-cut accent lab-created diamonds, 1.5mm, approximately .02ct each, for a total of roughly 0.24 carats of diamonds; VS clarity, F+ color for exceptional clarity and brilliance.
• 2 round accent lab-created emeralds (in the heart-shaped frame on either side of the center setting), 2mm, approximately 0.03 carats each for a total of 0.06 carats.

►In the wedding bands:

• 16 round-cut lab created emeralds, 1.5mm, approximately .010ct each, for a total of roughly 0.16 carats of emeralds.

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 -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 we all 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 even include a photograph of the exact gem that will be used in the ring.

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. We also offer lab created diamonds, Canadian-mined diamonds, and Moissanite for a full range of options to meet your budget and ethical considerations.

Choose just about any precious metal — 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.

A SPECIAL NOTE ON OUR CELTIC JEWELRY DESIGNS

In recent times, some fringe groups have been attempting to hijack Celtic, Viking, and other designs for racist purposes. We explicitly disavow all racist, white supremacist, alt-right, and other hateful uses of this symbology and refuse to allow it to be co-opted. If you are looking for hate symbols, you are not welcome as our customer. We embrace the use of these ancient symbols of love and protection in the spirit of unity. We strive to create a welcoming and safe destination for people of all races, beliefs, genders, and sexual orientations. Hate has no place here, only love and respect.
