Скачать или смотреть #15 The Engagement Ring Guide With Jasmine Fraser

Engagement season is upon us! In honour of that, we’ve put together this engagement ring guide with Melbourne jeweller Jasmine Fraser (http://www.jasminefraser.com.au/) .


She’s been in the biz for 16 years, carefully handcrafting custom jewellery for special occasions. Her grandfather owned a jewellery store, so Jasmine’s love for gems and trinkets started at an early age. In fact, she went to trade school right after high school. Jasmine describes her pieces and signature style as “timeless, but with a contemporary edge”.




In this chat we discuss:

• Customizing an engagement ring
• Ready-made vs custom jewellery
• How to choose the right jeweller
• The four C's of diamonds
• Sourcing ethical jewellery
• How to surprise your partner with a ring
• Remodelling rings
• Matching engagement rings and wedding bands
• Proposing without a ring

Where does one begin in choosing an engagement ring? To start, it’s a good idea to put together a mood board of styles that you and your partner like. Oftentimes, a common theme will stand out that will help narrow down your choice.


Some people prefer picking out a ready-made piece because they can immediately try it on. With custom rings, you can be very detailed with how you want it to look. This is why it’s important to work with a jeweller that shares the same aesthetic preference as you, and whom you can trust.


If you’d like to remodel an old ring, the jeweller will first have to examine if the material is suitable. Whichever option you go for, keep in mind that an engagement ring can someday become a beloved family heirloom that you’ll want to keep for generations.
