Crafted By Infinity - AWESOME!
Sunday, November 08, 2009
Shannon at Dimend Scaasi and a diamond from Crafted By Infinity will be all you need to create the perfect enagagement ring. From the very beginning with a hands on learning experience, Shannon led me through a potentially very stressful and difficult journey with detailed professionalism and very personal attention.
With a quick read of the 4C's before stopping in for an appointment at Dimend Scaasi, Shannon had a wide range of loose stones ready for my viewing. She gave me a very good tutorial on color and clarity and a few hours later, I was extremely comfortable in knowing what I was looking for after being able to see and analyze stones of varying grades. I left feeling no obligation to return and was extremely satisfied with this initial experience which ultimately was my decision to not seriously look elsewhere.
Over the next several weeks, Shannon was able to keep up with my relentless emails asking questions and comparing stones they listed as available on their website. After rejecting several stones for one reason or another, Shannon understood how important the cut quality was to me and went out to find me an Infinity stone (www.craftedbyinfinity com) within my parameters. Once I saw this stone's light performance and brilliance, I understood why it's one of the most saught after diamonds and knew I found exactly what I had been looking for. (Tip: Dimend Scaasi has all of the latest and greatest tools for analyzing a stone's light performance - ask to see images of stones they can get in-house).
Once i had the Infinity stone, the ring design was the next step. I came into this knowing exactly how the ring needed to look. Everything at Dimend Scaasi is made from scratch and hand crafted - so my custom design couldn't have been easier. I was able to give drawings, pictures and verbal instructions on every detail, view wax versions and finally approve it before it went into casting. Turnaround time was less than 1 week after approving the wax - I felt as if I was their top priority.
All in all, I hope anyone who reads this and is looking for a potential retailer for a custom engagement ring will look no further and make an appointment today with Shanon at Dimend Scaasi. I had so much fun with so much flexability and so many options, I never once felt stressed, frustrated or nervous about any part of this process and YOU won't either. Have fun!
