5 /5 Darren Liu: Not only did Koorosh make me a genuinely one-of-a-kind engagement ring, but he made my dreams come true!
For years I wanted an engagement ring that could capture the brilliance of my beloved. She once made a joke while we were at a diamond shop, pointing at the gems and saying "Its me!" since her name was also Diamond. That solidified my idea: to give her a ring that was also a mirror, so that it would contain the most beautiful diamond in the world.
I went to many custom jewelry designers to see if my idea was even plausible. Most of them flat out rejected me, saying that it was impractical, not worth the effort, or just impossible. Some proposed that instead, I get her picture engraved on a gemstone. I refused this idea since it would only capture a single moment of her life, and the mirror aspect is meant to show that she is always the perfect Diamond. Each designer I talked with made it feel like my idea was just a farfetched dream and that I should settle for something more conventional.
Thankfully, I eventually met Koorosh. I explained to him the basic premise of the ring, and even though I didnt have an appointment, he wanted to sit down with me to hear more. After hearing my story and vision for the ring, his eyes lit up and I knew I was working with a true artist. Koorosh immediately started thinking on how to make this design a reality. Despite knowing that it would be a challenge to not only figure out how to make the ring reflective, but to also create it, he took the commission with an excitement I had not seen from anybody else.
Throughout the process, Koorosh was very professional and helped walk me through each step, always listening to my feedback and showing me how the design was progressing. When the day finally came where I could see the finished ring, I could not have been happier with the result! It felt absolutely surreal to actually have it in my hands and see my reflection in the gemstone. It was a magical moment that only Koorosh could make happen.
Thank you again to Koorosh and his team for all of the heart and soul put into this unique engagement ring! My fiancé was moved to tears when I proposed and told her the story behind the ring. She is constantly telling me how much people love hearing the story, and both the story and the ring have become her most cherished treasures.
