Why Phoenix Couples Are Going Custom
Thinking of proposing here in Phoenix? You’re probably after a ring that feels personal something that actually reflects your story, not just another sparkly piece behind a glass case. The challenge? Finding something custom without it costing more than the wedding.
Good news: at Quantum Qarat, we design and craft every engagement ring locally, right here in Phoenix. No middlemen. No inflated retail markups. Just thoughtful design from people who live in the same city as you.
Why Go Custom in the First Place?
Let’s be real: big-chain stores and online giants usually offer the same handful of styles-plus a hefty markup. When you go custom with us, you get:
- A ring that tells your story - every detail built around your relationship
- Materials you can feel good about - responsibly sourced gemstones + recycled metals
- Clear, honest pricing - no upselling, no hidden fees
And the best part? You’re part of the journey-sketches, stone selection, and final touches all with your input.

So, What’s It Gonna Cost?
One of the first questions couples ask is: “How much will this run me?” Fair enough.
Our custom engagement rings typically start at $1,200. That includes:
- Real gold or platinum settings
- A beautiful stone (lab-grown or mined-your choice)
- Expert local craftsmanship
No gimmicks. No inflated mall pricing. Just quality that lasts.
