Ritani Gemstones and the Case for Choosing the Stone Before the Setting

A gemstone can give a ring or pendant its personality before the setting is chosen. Ruby, emerald, and sapphire each bring color, history, and a different feeling to the finished piece.

That is why a loose gemstone can be the better starting point when the stone itself should lead the design. The color, shape, and scale can be chosen first, then the setting can be selected around those details.

Ritani offers loose gemstones for shoppers creating a one-of-a-kind pendant or engagement ring, as well as finished gemstone jewelry for those who want earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, pendants, tennis necklaces, tennis bracelets, bangles, or eternity rings. This article focuses on the first path: starting with the gemstone when the stone should define the piece.
