Etienne Perret Colored Diamond Bands On Ringspotter

 
Etienne's Gem Ceramic collection has been getting so much attention lately, that's it's nice to know that people are still falling fresh in love with his wide range of traditional precious metal designs--especially when that person is a respected jewelry critic like our new friend Vanessa of Ringspotters!

Amongst many other fine designs, Ringspotters took a special liking to Etienne's colored diamond channel bands. They were quick to recognize the channel bands potential as both unique wedding or commitment bands and as stunning fashion rings, with nearly limitless options for customization.

I mean, how much more freedom can you have than being able to choose which color of 18kt gold or platinum, the size of the diamonds and whether they go all the way around or just half way...not to mention having the freedom to choose from a diamond color palette as wide as the rainbow!

Two can be used as paired wedding bands around a beautiful Etienne Perret colored diamond engagement ring, or several, in one or more colors, can be stacked as a jaw-dropping fashion ring combination! However you choose to wear them, you can't go wrong with Etienne's colored diamond channel bands!

Ceramic Wedding Rings by Etienne Perret

"Zirconia ceramic wedding rings are making a splash in the world of wedding ring design, and Etienne Perret’s designs are on the cutting edge of this intriguing fashion trend.

He was inspired by the scratch-resistant ceramic found in Swiss Rado watches, but it took decades for that inspiration to translate into the ceramic wedding rings and other ceramic jewelry he now features in his collection. He states, “Over 25 years ago I saw the Rado watches. They got me to thinking about ceramic jewelry, but it was not until about 5 years ago that I actually connected with a partner that helps me manufacture the pieces.”...read the full article by Tricia Spencer at Suite101.com

"Mr. Perret remains hands on in the creation of his collection and even makes himself personally available to brides and grooms who wish to create custom wedding rings and share insights into ceramic designs. His soft spot for wedding couples means he will confer with them virtually any day of the week. When asked what brides and grooms should know about him, he responded, “They should know I will personally see that their rings are made they way they want them, and I offer a full guarantee on all Gem Ceramic designs. I’m a real person they can speak to, and I will take the wishes they have imagined and create rings they will love.”...read the full article by Tricia Spencer at Suite101.com

Etienne's Diamond Wedding Ring Designs Praised by the Natural Color Diamond Association

    

The Natural Color Diamond Association (NCDIA) is the world's leading authority on natural color diamonds. As an international trade organization dedicated to increasing awareness of color as a unique and valuable attribute in diamonds, they have long had the full repect and attention of colored diamond jewelry designer, Etienne Perret.

It's always a special honor, when NCDIA's executive director, Robert Lucien May, chooses to feature Etienne's natural color diamond designs on their websites.Yesterday they spotlighted Etienne's natural color diamond Triple Row Pave wedding bands on the NCDIA Facebook page.  

Three immaculate rows of pave set, natural color diamonds encircle these Etienne Perret wedding bands. Featuring yellow, white and pink natural color diamonds set in yellow, white and rose 18kt gold, respectively. These rings are available custom designed in various widths in 18kt gold or platinum, set with two to four rows of your choice of natural color or color enhanced natural diamonds, in nearly any color of the rainbow!

NCDIA is always the first to share the news about the world of large, high profile natural color diamonds (which are often more likely to take up the spotlight), but it shows the dedication to detail of their organization when they take the time to highlight the unique designs of talented independent designers such as Etienne Perret.

Etienne & His Gem Ceramic Collection Receive Major Editorial Attention!

   
We were very happy to see the newest editorial coverage of Etienne's increasingly popular Gem Ceramic collection get blasted across the web last week! Many online voices have made it clear they gave Etienne's newest project a big thumbs up, but rarely are we fortunate enough to get such thorough coverage by so talented an author.

Tricia Spencer lives in Southern California and has been consistently recognized for her excellence as an author of both both short stories and more journalistic pursuits! You can see a full list of her accomplishments on her website, but we are here to talk to you about her latest compilation of articles on Suite101.com.

Tricia came across Etienne's Gem Ceramic designs on the web, while researching leads for her position as Wedding Planning feature writer at Suite101.
