Episode summary
Is the engagement ring the same as the wedding ring? No. They have different jobs—proposal diamond versus ceremony band—and a mined bridal set often blurs that on purpose.

Episode summary
How long does it take to get an engagement ring? The mined prestige wait is often the real markup—not craft. Separate decision time, a locked diamond, true custom setting work, and inventory theater.

What we cover
Why “bespoke” is often mined-markup theater rather than craft; how custom-setting work should start after the center diamond is locked; why a blank check or a long wait is not a reason to abandon diamonds; and a practical checklist that keeps the diamond the hero.
