I agree wholeheartedly.
I'm a pain when it comes to jewerly. If my kids don't bury me in it, they can at least live off of it ;)
A couple of years ago, I upgraded my diamond stud earrings. Knowing that most earrings are lower in quality, I went to my jeweler (I only use one) and told them what I wanted. Essentially I wanted two 1 carat better than average quality solitaires to be mounted in platinum earring settings. They found 8 for me to choose 2 from. I love them.
At the last LeVian trunk show at my jewelers, I spotted a non-LeVian setting that I liked as a ring for my index finger, but it was all diamonds and very poor quality diamonds. I wear mostly diamonds and sapphires. I mentioned to the LeVian rep that I wished they had something similar but in sapphires circling a diamond. Well... he bought the setting and sent it to New York for them to use as a basis to custom make the ring I want with enough of their own touches so they aren't stepping on anyone's design. It's due in any day now and I can't wait. It will be a true one of a kind.
