How To Find The Best Price For One Of A Kind Rings

By Tammie Caldwell


Many people are starting to use jewelry as a way to round out their wardrobe. Larger statement pieces are becoming more common and individuals are starting to want unique items rather than those that are mass produced. If you want a smaller item that is still unique, you may want to consider one of a kind rings. You can wear these with a variety of different items. Here are some suggestions you can use when locating and selecting these items for your wardrobe.

Your budget is a good starting point. When it comes to custom pieces there is literally no upper limit on how much you can spend. If you are having someone specifically craft an item for you it is important to remember that not only are you paying for materials, you are also paying for the time and effort that the smith put into making your piece. If you want to save some money, you may want to consider working with someone who is an apprentice metal smith. They may offer you the same great style but at a lower price.

One of the first things to think about is which metal you want. Most are made from metals that are hard enough to hold a particular shape. Most metals such as gold and platinum can also be engraved or etched to make them look different than plain metal would look. You should consider what metal the majority of your other rings and jewelry pieces are made out of and whether you want a new piece that fits in with them or which stands out in a complimentary way.

The second thing to think about is what you want your piece to look like. You should ask yourself whether you want stones in your ring or whether you want a band that relies on other features for visual interest. Keep in mind that stones, especially diamonds, can really drive up the price of a piece. If you do want stones, you need to think about whether you want all of the same kind of stone or whether you want a mixture of different ones.

As you can see, it doesn't take much to narrow down your search. Once you know basically what you are looking for you can start shopping. You may find that a good starting place is with a metal smith that has experience working with your preferred metal. They may also have pieces that are unique and already finished.

Although you may be tempted to work with the least expensive jeweler available this may not be the best decision to make. You want to make sure that you are getting a good deal but also that you are ending up with a quality product as well. Many stores are chains and do not have unique items. If you are able to find a jeweler who is a metal smith, they have experience and skill in working with metal and can help you craft a beautiful and one of a kind item.

Many people do not have the time or patience to wait for a piece to be crafted especially for them. If you fall into this category, you may want to look at unique pieces that have already been created. You can find these in some stores and also at fairs and markets. Often, jewelry makers will display items that they have created.

Many people are able to find amazing prices on items by looking online and unique jewelry is also available. The key is knowing where to look. If you want to make sure you are not buying mass produced items try looking on sites that feature craftspeople and their wares.
