Quick Change….. Presto!

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

One of our customer really liked this ring but wanted to see what it would look like in White gold with a sapphire instead of a diamond. I was able to take the model and do a quick render and send it to the customer and now they dont have to wonder what it might look like. Its amazing how quick we can do this type of quick turn around.

Amazing Sculptured Aquamarine

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

We had a customer come in that Carter helped with a custom piece but he needed a drawing right away. We called Tim at home and Tim drew this custom piece up at home on his day off from his memory of the Aqua. I think it Turned out amazing!!

Floral feel Wedding Set

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

Spring is certainly in the air, it’s wedding season! Here is a wedding set that Tim drew and then I did the cad work on. In this case Tim drew up a set that the customer then approved, i  took his drawings and did a CAD design with true measurements of the diamonds and made sure it had the same feel as what he drew. Hope you like!

This is the drawing Tim did of both the Engagement ring and the band

Just a quick example of some of the corporate Items we can make. These are for Armstrong and I originaly did the  mock up for these almost 2 years ago.
