Superb experience!
If you are considering deBebians, but are worried about a primarily online company, don't be, they're legit. Sam designed my engagement and wedding rings, and I live about 2 hours away, so I drove down there and met him. So he's a real person, has a real business, and their location is secure. I've posted a few pictures on Yelp.
After not having been able to find the perfect wedding ring for over 2 years, I decided to email deBebians around Thanksgiving 2015. I thought, it's probably going to be too expensive, but what the heck, they offer free quotes. I made a detailed Google doc that I included the link to in my original email detailing rings that I liked for specific reasons, but I didn't actually like the whole ring.
Sam emailed me back with a general quote and it was BELOW budget! We already had the center stone as it is an heirloom from my husband's family, and Sam was great about making the time for me to come down and bring it to him. I didn't trust myself to to do the measurements of the stone correctly, and I felt better having him do it since he was going to design a ring for it. Sam was so great in person, we talked more about the design, he got all the info on the diamond, and I was glad I was able to take the diamond back home with me. I was real sure how my husband would feel about me leaving his family heirloom with a jeweler I just met lol. After exchanging a few ideas back and forth via email and the phone, the final rendering of my ring was done on the computer and emailed to me. I loved it already, just from the picture. We made a date for me to come back and have the diamond set about 2.5 weeks from the final CAD picture. My ring was ready as promised, my husband and I drove to LA, left the diamond with Sam, got breakfast, and in about an hour and a half, I had my beautiful lovely ring!
The beauty of my ring is all in the details. I'm not sure if it's really represented accurately in the pictures, but the scroll design was also hand engraved adding dimension and depth. The milgraining (beading) really gives it the vintage aspect I felt was appropriate considering the history of the center stone, yet the delicate double halo is something you see today. I also appreciated how my ring wasn't high profile. I asked for "medium" profile lol. I wanted to be able to see the detail in the ring but not accidentally stab the kids with it or knock it around on walls or something.
One of the things I really appreciated about Sam is he made me feel so much better about actually making a decision a wedding ring. I had grown over the course of 2 years kind of dreading even talking about it. I had looked at thousands of new settings and vintage settings and saw very pretty ones, but nothing I really felt drawn to. No wonder my poor husband was worried about picking a ring I wouldn't like! Sam was super patient and was able to help me narrow down what I was even looking for, and the elements of particular styles I liked. He also was honest about what would and wouldn't look good, and assured me he would only make a ring that he liked too.
I have total faith in Sam and deBebians, would absolutely recommend them, and will definitely buy from them again. Oh, and something else I think is great customer service, deBebians provides free inspection, cleaning, and rhodium dipping. They are also military friendly!
I would also recommend looking at the educational portion of their website, it's very informative about terminology and such.
Thank you Sam and everyone in involved in the production of my ring! It's gorgeous, I love it, and Sam you were right, I DO get compliments on it all the time!
