Your Local Expert in Custom Engagement Rings & Fine Jewelry

Unlike the many jewelers who alter existing designs and call them custom, Christopher Duquet provides a truly personalized experience. Our Graduate Gemologists have deep expertise in diamonds and gemstones, ensuring each piece is made from scratch. We collaborate with you throughout the entire design process, from design to CAD renderings, to create a unique piece that reflects your style.

We went to Christopher Duquet to get a custom engagement ring and the experience was lovely. Villi worked with us to design a ring that was exactly what I wanted, yet she also inserted her expertise when needed, and the result was a really beautiful product that I admire every day 🙂 We also got our wedding rings done there as well and the entire process was very smooth. I definitely recommend this over going to a chain jeweler, as I got to have control over every step of the process!

Our Custom Jewelry Design Process

Jewelry Design Sketch

Starting with sketching out your vision together, our design process is truly unique. While many jewelers adjust existing designs and deem them custom, our team is composed of skilled gemologists and goldsmiths who can truly create from scratch. After sketching, we handpick an array of gemstones to suit your vision, and craft a detailed CAD rendering. The final step is the casting process, where your design starts to come to life.
