Keep Your Original Diamond Close To Your Heart | Upgrading Your Engagement Ring
Upgrade Your Engagement Ring

Upgrading diamond engagement rings can be a great way to refresh the symbol of your love and commitment. Especially since, at times, when a couple is newly engaged, they could’t quite afford the diamond they wanted at the time. Upgrading to a bigger lab diamond engagement ring has been the popular next step. In addition, taking the original center stone from your engagement ring and turning it into a necklace is a creative and sentimental way to repurpose the beloved original diamond that has been so cherished. It allows you to continue to wear and enjoy the diamond that holds so much sentimental value to you, while also giving it a new and unique look.

Lab-grown diamonds are identical to natural diamonds in every way, including their physical and chemical properties. The only difference is that lab-grown diamonds are created in a controlled laboratory setting, rather than mined from the earth. This makes them a more sustainable and an ethically-sourced option for those looking to upgrade their engagement ring. One of the biggest benefits of upgrading to a lab-grown diamond is that they are much less expensive than natural diamonds of the same size and quality. This means that you can get a bigger, higher-quality diamond for the same price as a smaller natural diamond.

When upgrading, it’s important to consider the overall design and style of the ring, as well as the size and quality of the diamond. This is all discussed when working with one of our Jewelry Professionals to create custom engagement rings with us at After Midnight Jewelers.

Overall, upgrading to a bigger lab-grown diamond engagement ring can be a great way to refresh the symbol of your love and commitment, while also being a more sustainable and budget-friendly option. Now onto creating a beautiful new piece for your original diamond!

One popular way to repurpose a diamond from an engagement ring is to have it set in a pendant necklace. This can be a simple and elegant way to honor your beautiful stone in a new and different way. You can choose from a variety of pendant settings, such as a solitaire, a bezel, or a halo setting, to create a look that is uniquely yours. At After Midnight Jewelers we will be able to help you choose the right setting and design for your diamond, and ensure that the piece is properly crafted and set.

Overall, taking the original diamond from your engagement ring and turning it into a new piece is a great way to repurpose a beloved piece of jewelry and continue to enjoy it in a new and unique way. It’s a sentimental and personal way to keep the memories of your engagement ring alive, while also creating a new piece of jewelry that you’ll love wearing.
