Here’s a cool recent custom piece - 14K White & Rose Gold Engagement Ring

jon-2

This super cool engagement ring was created in 14K white Gold with hand made Rose Gold heart elements in the gallery under the diamond. This John Franklin Jewelers custom piece also featured elegant & expert hand engraving. The ring has a real “old world” feel to it. Very classic and feminine. The client was very happy and we were excited to deliver the piece.

This ring showcases the versatility of design and creation that we offer at John Franklin Jewelers Design Studio. If you have an idea or concept for jewelry design, contact me, and let’s work together to make your idea a reality!!

Stylish Custom Created 14K Yellow Gold Opal & Blue Sapphire Ring

opal-saph

I was excited to design and create this piece, as I rarely get to work in yellow gold any longer. The “white” metals ( white gold, palladium, platinum) make up 95% of all my custom creations. This unique piece features a beautiful oval opal, and a halo of small bright blue sapphires. The ring is an elegant split shank design. A good client of mine commissioned me to make this ring for her mother. I think she’ll be quite happy!!

Contact me if you have any questions regarding custom design. I’d love to answer your questions and to work with you to create something special!!

Still BUYING GOLD!!!

Hey Everyone, don’t forget I am still buying GOLD!! Gold prices are still hovering at all time highs, and it’s a great time to clean out the jewelry box and turn that jewelry you never wear into CASH! Especially now, right after the holidays! If you have any questions, just give me a call or send an email. Or just gather up your gold and bring it in. I’ll have a look and let you know what you have. I recycle the gold and use the purified metal in my custom creations!

Super cool split shank “Halo” engagement ring

Just recently finished this original design. Created in .950 Palladium, this unique split shank engagement ring also features a slightly different style “halo” than most of your common off the shelf designs. Ring features a 1.00ct round brilliant cut center diamond and approx .75ctw in small diamonds. A beautiful look, with a slightly different flair. Another John Franklin Jewelers gorgeous ring!!

Please contact me if you have any questions about having the ring of your dreams custom created just for you!! I’d love to work with you!!
