Custom-Made Floral Engagement Ring

w/ Pink and Violet Sapphire Accents on the Shoulders

Diamond & Sapphire Engagement Ring

A classic diamond centerpiece meets a playful arrangement of color in this custom engagement ring by San Diego jewelry designer Carl Blackburn of C. Blackburn Jewelers in La Jolla.

The round center diamond is held by four polished claw prongs and surrounded by an asymmetrical cluster of sapphires and smaller diamonds. Pink and violet tones soften the bright white sparkle, while a blue-violet round sapphire adds a distinct accent at the edge of the composition.

Marquise-shaped gems introduce pointed, leaf-like forms among the round stones, giving the arrangement a botanical character. Their varied sizes and directions create a loose, organic outline rather than a uniform halo.

The polished white metal band provides a simple foundation for the colorful centerpiece. For couples exploring diamond and sapphire engagement rings in San Diego, this design offers a distinctive combination of traditional brilliance and expressive gemstone accents.

Custom Floral Engagement Ring

Hidden beneath the gemstones is a small flower with a pink center—a detail reserved for a closer look. Its textured metal petals sit within the open gallery, carrying the botanical theme into the underside of the ring.

The shoulders rise around this floral motif, forming a peaked opening beneath the centerpiece. Curved rails connect the individual gemstone settings above, revealing how the seemingly free-flowing cluster rests on a carefully organized framework.

Open-backed mounts expose the undersides of the accent stones, while upright supports hold the center diamond above them. The polished surfaces outline each opening and give the gallery a light, intricate appearance.

This concealed flower adds an intimate dimension to Carl Blackburn’s custom jewelry design in La Jolla. Beyond the color visible from above, the ring contains a decorative detail that makes its construction part of its personality.

Original Cluster Bloom Ring Design

The angled view makes the cluster’s varied heights and overlapping forms easier to appreciate. Some accents nestle close to the center diamond, while others extend outward toward the shoulders, creating depth across the setting.

Each gemstone has its own small prong setting, allowing the different shapes to remain clearly defined. The pointed marquise sapphires suggest leaves, and the round accents resemble small buds interspersed with bright diamonds. Together, they form a colorful frame that feels spontaneous yet balanced.

The substantial, unadorned band gives this intricate arrangement room to stand out. Its smooth shoulders meet the outer clusters cleanly, connecting the decorative centerpiece to a restrained foundation.

Seen together, these details give this custom engagement ring its distinctive character: a brilliant central diamond, a nuanced palette of pink and violet sapphires, and botanical touches that emerge from every perspective.
