We create custom engagement rings in Wheaton, MD through Maryland Custom Engagement Rings, shaped by the many traditions of this community and documented in a CAD drawing the buyer approves first.
Wheaton is one of Montgomery County liveliest crossroads, where Georgia Avenue runs past a dining corridor of remarkable range and Brookside Gardens inside Wheaton Regional Park has become a genuinely beloved place to ask the question among flowers and water. Buyers here draw on traditions from around the world, and their rings should show that range rather than a catalog edited in another state. We work the Wheaton way: a real conversation to start, in person or by video, and a finished ring handed over or shipped with a signature at the end, with every measurement in between printed on a spec sheet the buyer approved.

We drew this bridal set around a pear shaped center stone measuring 14.00 by 10.00 millimeters and weighing 4.91 carats, surrounded by a halo of round diamonds, with the wedding band drawn in the same project to follow its line. The drawing counts 34 stones totaling 5.85 carats, the ring at about 4.50 grams and the band at about 2.40 grams in the drawing metal, made for a US size 7.5 finger. Drawn for a buyer near Brookside Gardens. Turnaround: 5 weeks from CAD approval to delivery. Ballpark price: about $10,900 complete in lab grown stones. Case note: approving one sheet for both pieces let the buyer judge the combined width and presence of the set on the hand before a single stone was set.


We drew this ring with an oval center stone of 14.00 by 9.50 millimeters at about 5.00 carats above a split shank band set with 24 round side stones of 1.70 millimeters totaling 0.5040 carats. The band measures 1.7 millimeters thick, the stone sits 8.5 millimeters high, and the sheet was drawn for a US size 5 finger. Drawn for a buyer off Georgia Avenue. Turnaround: 4 weeks from CAD approval to delivery. Ballpark price: about $8,200 complete in lab grown stones in 14k yellow gold. Case note: yellow gold carries real loyalty in Wheaton, and against the warm metal the long white oval reads even larger than its five carats. Oval engagement ring designs
Wheaton households are busy and spread across time zones and duty schedules, so we offer two doors that lead to the same drawing. Door one is local: we meet in person in the Wheaton area, size the finger across the table, and study the spec sheet together. Door two is fully virtual: consultation by video call, a ring sizer kit mailed to the home, the size confirmed together on a follow up call before the CAD sheet locks, and the drawing reviewed on a shared screen call angle by angle. Through both doors, stone selection is digital by design: photographs and video of the actual stones, sent for the buyer to judge at home. The quote is itemized as stone, metal, and making, a deposit at CAD approval starts the bench, the balance falls due at delivery, and delivery means in person locally or insured tracked signature shipping, checked against the sheet either way.

Shapes and color lead our Wheaton sketchbooks. Sapphire centers, two tone bands, ovals, pears, and marquise outlines all start as lines on the same sheet, and the drawing is where a shape from one ring and a band from another become a single coherent design.
Researched Maryland pricing gives Wheaton buyers a straight guide: lab grown custom designs most often land between $2,800 and $7,500 complete, which is where many Wheaton buyers focus because a lab grown center puts more of the budget into visible size and quality, and natural diamond custom designs most often land between $6,500 and $18,000 complete, with larger stones or elaborate sets above those ranges by specification. Your itemized quote separates stone, metal, and making so you can see precisely what your design costs and why. Lab grown diamond custom engagement rings
We serve Wheaton and Glenmont, Kemp Mill, Aspen Hill, Layhill, and the Georgia Avenue and Veirs Mill Road corridors, plus Silver Spring, Kensington, Rockville, and Takoma Park, working in person or virtually across all of them.

That is exactly what the CAD stage is for. Bring a shape from one ring, a band from another, and a color idea from a third, and we draw the combination at true scale for your approval before anything is made.
We mail a ring sizer kit and confirm the size together on a follow up call before the drawing locks. A ring she already wears can be measured as a cross check, and the final size is printed on the spec sheet.
Most Wheaton projects land between $2,800 and $7,500 in lab grown designs and between $6,500 and $18,000 in natural diamond designs, and your own itemized quote fixes the figure in writing before manufacture begins.
