    Video Description:
    I love challenges. My favorite types of tv involve Gordon Ramsey challenging chefs to make something. I love Project Runway where designers are challenged to make clothing. I am giving myself a challenge in this video...which is to make an engagement ring for the most popular artist in the world. I decided on a 10 carat emerald cut lab-grown diamond. Custom made in 18K gold, which a heart shape diamond accent in the band.

    I love the choice to turn the emerald cut diamond on its side for this ring because it makes me think of the shape of many of the stadiums for the Eras tour! And the little heart detail is so subtle and so perfect 🤍

    I like the extra detail of the heart on the side and that it's almost a secret for the wearer, not being easily visible to someone looking at the ring while it is being worn.

    I adore horizontal settings, this is magnificent. As for the little heart - I might have done it a little differently. I think I would have made the heart in ruby (Red) and I think I would have placed it on the inside of the band - a secret just for Taylor, and whoever she chooses to share it with.

      My thoughts exactly!
      As a side note lab grown maisonettes are a lot more common so also a great option. Maisonette had better fire (scattering of rainbow light) then diamonds do, so in my mind they're prettier. Only slightly less hard, but not enough that you'd realistically notice

    When I was in university geology class (I got my degree in environmental science), I remember my professor going on a rant when asked "But natural diamond are better for the environment because they don't have all 'those chemicals', right? (to this day, I have no idea what "those chemicals" would be). To sum up my professors rant, natural diamonds are cheaper, much better for the environment, and are guaranteed to be slave-labor free. He concluded the rant with "The only reason to buy natural diamonds is if you fall for the Diamond Cartel's lies about natural diamonds"

    What a thumbnail! Hahahah! Make sure you get credit if you do. Unlike the Taylor bestie Keleigh, who said she "made" the opal ring for Taylor. She actually (possibly) was involved in the design. Designers that aren't jewelers - like you - are designers only. It's so good to be both, isn't it? So far, it's been next to impossible to find out who the actual maker of that opal ring is. I'm sure it's all part of the hoopla. Love your design AND make! 👏

    Nice Video- being a Designer in Retail Jewelry your presentation was very well done. I’m a big fan of Lab Created Diamonds which makes them very accessible. My wife also a jeweler hates them as she says, “cheapens the diamond into a costume jewelry category” . Well I do see her point - I saw a dealer offered 1carat G/H Vs going for $100 a carat 😳. She maybe right.
    Back to your ring: well all is good except DIAGONAL. Yep really dampens the extraordinary elegance factor available to what could have been a very
    Astounding eye popper fit for a Queen.
    The plus of it - Taylor could play touch football comfortably with it and no one would get pocked in the eye while in bed 😅
