THE OVOEU GUIDE

Find your
direction.

A ring begins with what moves you. A shape, a detail, a feeling you cannot quite put into words.

You do not need all the answers. Your Concierge will guide you.

Start with what catches your eye

For those who vow.

01 · STONE SHAPE

What catches your eye?

Look at the outline first. You can like more than one. There is no decision to make yet.

OVOEU design studies, not finished rings or available inventory. Images are not to scale; proportions vary between studies.

02 · THE SETTING

The way it comes together.

Notice the whole ring, not only the center. Which details would you keep? Which would you change?

A single center stone as the focus. Notice the band, the prongs and the open space around the stone.

03 · CARAT WEIGHT & PROPORTIONS

A question of
proportion.

Consider how you would like the ring to feel on your hand: understated, expressive or somewhere between.

Carat measures weight, not dimensions. Understand the 4Cs ↓

Your Concierge will consider the stone’s outline, band width and setting with you. Carat weight can wait until you meet.

Explore it with your Concierge

04 · METAL & MOOD

Begin with what
you already love.

Look at the jewelry you reach for most. Bring a photograph, or simply tell your Concierge what you notice.

THE TONE

Are you drawn to a warmer or cooler look?

THE FINISH

Do you prefer a polished look or a softer surface?

THE COMBINATION

Do you wear one metal tone, or mix them together?

These are starting points for your conversation. Your Concierge will confirm the materials and finishes available for your design.

UNDERSTANDING THE 4Cs

A little knowledge.
A clearer conversation.

Four useful words to know. Not four decisions you have to make alone.

LIGHT

Cut

How the facets and proportions influence the way a diamond interacts with light.

TONE

Color

The body color visible in the diamond.

DETAIL

Clarity

The presence of internal inclusions and surface blemishes.

WEIGHT

Carat

The diamond’s weight, rather than its dimensions.

Your Concierge will help you explore what matters to you.

Explore with your Concierge
Is cut the same as shape?

Shape is the outline you notice, such as oval or pear. Cut concerns the diamond’s facets, proportions and interaction with light.

When sharing inspiration, start with the outline you like; your Concierge can help you explore the detail.

Do I need to know my ring size?

No. Your Concierge will explain how fit and sizing can be explored, whether you meet at the atelier or virtually.

MAKE ROOM FOR YOUR IDEAS

Your OVOEU Board.

Gather sketches, your own images and a few notes. If you share your Board before your Design Session, your Concierge will prepare sketches around your inspirations.

Explore the sketches

“I love this shape,
but imagine a
simpler band.”

An illustrative note, not a client quotation.

A place for inspiration, not an order. Sharing your Board is optional.

YOUR CONCIERGE WILL GUIDE YOU

Begin with
a conversation.

A personal conversation about the ring you have in mind. Meet your Concierge in Oklahoma City or virtually.
