First
and
foremost,
not
all
jewelry
shops
are
created
equal,
and
if
you're
shopping
for
an
engagement
ring,
you
should
know
that
your
satisfaction
with
the
finished
product
will
greatly
depend
on
the
jeweler's
craftsmanship,
attention
to
detail,
and
expertise.
All
the
little
details
add
up
and
contribute
toward
the
overall
aesthetic
of
your
ring.
In
that
sense,
the
ring's
design
is
almost
as
important,
if
not
more
important,
than
the
quality
of
its
center
stone.
This
is
what
sets
Earth’s
Treasury
apart,
in
my
opinion.
I
specifically
wanted
an
ethically
sourced
gemstone
and
spent
a
lot
of
time
researching.
Once
I
decided
that
I
wanted
a
Montana
Sapphire,
I
scoured
the
internet
for
the
best
artisan
jewelers
that
carry
mine
direct
Montana
Sapphires.
After
experiencing
poor
customer
service,
lack
of
knowledge
and
slow
response
time
from
another
company…I
was
so
lucky
to
stumble
across
Earth’s
Treasury.
Not
only
are
their
gems
absolutely
gorgeous,
but
they
are
very
fairly
priced.
I
immediately
fell
in
love
with
a
yellow-gold
bicolored
Montana
Sapphire
they
had
listed
on
their
website
and
I
inquired
by
email
immediately.
Jeff,
the
founder
of
Earth’s
Treasury,
responded
within
30
minutes
and
also
included
a
pair
of
videos
of
the
gem
taken
indoors
and
outdoors.
At
that
point,
I
was
already
sold
but
it
gets
better…
Jeff
put
me
in
touch
with
the
lead
jewelry
designer,
Lauryn,
who
called
me
promptly
the
next
day
to
answer
all
of
my
questions
about
how
the
process
works.
Soon
after,
the
gem
was
purchased
and
the
journey
began.
The
gem
arrived
the
next
day
and
we
were
given
a
10
business
day
review
and
return
period
to
make
sure
we
loved
it.
If
for
some
reason
we
were
not
happy
with
it,
we
could
return
it
for
a
full
refund.
Spoiler
alert…we
loved
it.
The
next
step
was
to
ship
it
back
(I
have
to
admit
it
was
difficult
to
part
with)
and
start
working
with
Lauryn
on
the
design.
I
shared
stories
and
details
with
her
about
our
relationship
and
through
our
communications
Lauryn
combined
our
personal
details
with
her
wealth
of
experience
and
creativity
to
design
the
perfect
ring.
Because
my
fiancé
and
I
had
both
previously
been
married
and
came
together
later
in
life
each
with
two
kids
of
our
own,
I
knew
I
wanted
something
that
represented
us
and
was
different
fom
anything
we’ve
seen.
I
wanted
the
whole
ring
to
feel
like
the
sun
because
I
always
call
my
fiancé
my
big
ray
of
sunshine.
Lauryn
suggested
incorporating
smaller
colored
Montana
Sapphires
around
the
center
stone
within
the
diamond
baguette
“rays”.
The
two
small
yellow
Montana
Sapphires
on
each
side
represent
my
fiancé
and
I
and
the
four
smaller
mint
colored
Montana
sapphires
in
each
corner
represent
our
four
children.
We
received
sketches
and
3D
renderings
of
the
ring
design
in
progress,
which
was
incredibly
convenient.
But
design
is
just
one
part
of
it,
am
I
right?
You
want
to
know
what
the
sales
experience
is
like,
too.
Jeff,
Lauryn,
Nina
and
Tessa
were
very
communicative
via
phone
and
email.
They
were
knowledgeable,
professional,
and
above
all
else,
understanding
of
our
goals.
On
top
of
that,
we
received
a
complimentary
appraisal
by
mail
and
email
a
couple
weeks
after
our
engagement
which
was
a
pleasant
surprise
and
icing
on
the
cake.
Every
day
I
look
at
this
ring,
I
am
grateful
for
the
team
at
Earth’s
Treasury
who
took
our
love
story
and
made
it
tangible.
They
are
on
top
of
their
game
and
latest
trends
(check
their
Instagram
if
you
don't
believe
me),
which
leaves
a
lot
of
traditional
jewelry
shops
in
the
dust.
