Step 3: Computer Illustrated Design

Finalizing the Design With CAD Illustrations

Once our design is established, we create computer-aided designs that we send to our customers for their approval. These are photorealistic renderings that we can edit at will. These images are so realistic that the design process becomes exciting from start to finish.

Your Design Is Cast, and Your Stones Are Set

Our Collaborative Design Process
I had the best experience here! Not only did my fiancés ring turn out better than expected, Priscilla was sooooo amazing! She was so incredibly helpful and patient with me through the whole process. I would highly recommend using Christopher Duquet!!!!

Knowledgeable. Friendly. Unique. That’s what I was looking for in a jeweler and Christopher Duquet delivered in every respect. I provided some general artistic guidance in what I was looking for in my fiancé’s engagement ring and the team created something truly special. Friends and family have made numerous admiring remarks since our engagement earlier this week. It’s a real testament to the Christopher Duquet team and I must tip my hat. Based on the results I will undoubtedly be a repeat customer for the wedding band!

Christopher and his team created a custom set of engagement rings and wedding bands for my husband and I. What started with a search for something special turned into an exceptional experience of his creativity, professionalism, and service. He helped us create not just fine jewelry, but also a design that captured the essence of my relationship with my husband. I had no idea loops of gold could carry such meaning. To say we are blown away and deeply grateful is an understatement.

Christopher Duquet is a wonderful studio with a phenomenal staff that will work with you to achieve the vision you need for your special day. We went there searching for engagement rings and were provided with the best custom experience we could have imagined. Not only is their work impeccable, but their process helps guide you from beginning to end and the outcome is exactly what you want. They are experts in what they do and so much better than any jeweler you would find at a mall. You truly get the boutique experience and the attention needed to ensure that your jewelry is cherished forever. We couldn’t be happier recommending Duquet.
