How cool is this?

Hi, Beth,

We ran across this great testimonial on moissanite on another blog. It’s so good we had to share it with you on ours. Let us know what you think.

Recently I gave my now fiancée a 4 carat Round Brilliant cut synthetic diamond in a striking 14K gold filigree solitaire ring which she has been showing off regularly. This ring has been examined and studied by friends and family in awe at its perfection. She has also been flaunting  it when we go to dine out, at her job, while at the mall, nightclubs, various special occasions, and many other public places that its in can constantly be under examination. A couple of times she was even stopped walking on the street or in a store by strangers to compliment her on how beautiful it is. An incredible amount of people have had a chance to analyze and dissect it, and each is left astonishment at how beautiful it is. However, still after such examination and seeing how big and beautiful it is, no one has asked if it’s real or fake! (read the entire post here)

A quote comment from an inquiry this morning.

I am IN LOVE with moissanite!!!!!!!!!!!! More so then diamonds. I have enough of those and you cannot tell the difference. The sparkle is better the clarity is better……..

Ran across this great video of Jill and Kevin’s wedding. Looks like they had a lot of fun dancing down the isle! Check it out.

And, they have been gracious enough to use the publicity they’ve generated with this video to support the Sheila Wellstone Institute to help stop domestic violence. Check out their website.

Example of a Semi-Custom Ring

This is a great example of how you can take a standard, stock item and customize it to make an affordable, completely unique, one of a kind item just for you.

Our client came to us with a design idea they found. The original design had an antique style with a pink center stone, pave set side diamonds and rose gold accents. It is made from a white metal, probably platinum. Our customer wanted a ring created that incorporated these main elements – and fit into his budget.

Now we’re not certain what the inspirational ring cost but by looking at the size of the baguette side diamonds alone, we figure it must be well into the tens of thousands of dollars. It’s a beautiful piece but more than likely a little out of range for most people.

This is where our semi-custom jewelry design fits in. We were able to take a standard, stock item and customize it to give the look and feel of our customer’s original idea and fit it into his budget.

For this piece we started with a 14kt white gold casting. We set moissanite stones down the sides of the shank and small diamonds on the halo surrounding the center stone. The white gold prongs were replaced with rose gold prongs. We then opened up the side gallery slightly and added rose gold filigree scrolls for a subtle two tone accent.  To finish the piece, we set a cushion cut lab grown pink sapphire as the main, center stone.

As for the final verdict from the customer?

“Hi Joe, thanks very much for the fantastic job on Cher’s ring.  She absolutely loves it!!!!”

Music to our ears!

Take Diane and Simon from France, who ordered two stunning sapphire rings from us:

Dear Beth:

Just a short note to let you know that our rings have arrived safely. We are absolutely thrilled with them. Simon’s ring is unique, elegant, discreet and fits perfectly (of course!) My ring is stunning and the blue colour of the sapphire is amazing. I would never have thought it possible to create something so beautiful. The white moissanite set the sapphire off perfectly. So, we are both extremely happy and send our thanks to you and your team for creating such beautiful jewellery. With our best wishes!

We’ve had a long-standing, loyal list of customers that dates way back – sometimes generations.  With each repeat client, we’ve gone through engagements, marriages, graduations, anniversaries, holidays….the works!

People have come to rely on our high level of customer service and our custom design work that goes above and beyond.

Here’s another pleased client:

Hello Beth,

I know you were looking for pictures of the beautiful ring that you made for me, thanks to Paul, the wonderful man I’m going to marry. The pics are attached, and I wanted to personally thank you so much! My ring is exquisite and it looks even more beautiful than I thought it would! I’m thrilled with it!

Now, Paul and I are looking for wedding rings but we’ve hit a snag. I have a particular design in mind and it’s going to be a tough one, I fear.

If you start with your Style 6908WB, we’d like to make certain changes. We love the tri-gold twist along the center of the band, but we’d like the white gold on the inside of the band instead of the yellow. Also, the width would need to be no more than 4mm for my ring.

Is this a possibility??

Thanks again for my wonderful ring, and please give my best to everyone at Schubach!

Best regards,

Joan B.

Hi Beth:

Got the ring on Wednesday. Opened it up and WOW!!!! The website just absolutely DOES NOT do it justice!  The ring turned out much better than I ever imagined. Did I say WOW yet!?!?

The fire and brilliance were sooooooo much better than anything I have seen in a retail store.  I proposed to Heather (my, now, Fiance!!) on Friday and she has not stopped staring at it.

Everyone that has seen the ring has had an eye popping response and given me all kinds of credit for doing such a good job (thanks to you guys!! Couldn’t have done it without you!!)

Joe has a long term customer thanks to you! Heather will be needing some earrings shortly to pair with the ring for our wedding.

The ring is beautiful, your service is beyond exceptional, and I am in your debt.  Thank you so much!

Dear Joe:

For our anniversary I just received a beautiful pair of Moissanite earrings from my husband, and was very impressed with their quality.  I kept comparing them to my engagement ring and, at least with my untrained eye, the Moissanite earrings look just as brilliant as my diamond.  I was interested in another piece of jewelry to complete the set, and saw the round three stone pendant (style 10099).  Could you please provide me details on it?

Thanks much!
