Preserving Romance: Embracing Tradition with Hand-Sketched Engagement Rings at Janai

The Art of Diamond Ring Sketch in Jewellery Design

Once a fundamental skill of all jewellery artisans is now a rare and elusive talent. Before the advances of technology and sophisticated CAD software every jewellery designer relied solely on their imagination and drawing skills to bring diamond visions to life. Now in a predominantly digital era, the ability to hand sketch is only utilised by a select few in the industry. Hand-sketched illustrations add soul and the element of human connection to every Engagement Ring sketch design. It is an intimate phase of the design experience to relay your conceptual idea before it is brought to life.

Collaboration and Idea Exchange at Janai Jewellery

At Janai, the creative process begins as a collaboration and an exchange of ideas. Sketching is an intuitive process that evolves through conversations by sharing imagery and ideas. Together during this collaborative process, our expert team at Janai will interpret our clients' vision and translate the Diamond Ring into the form of an illustration. Sketching is a professional skill taking years to master, it isn’t meant to compete with the digital era with computer-aided drawing but instead serve as an addition to the design process.
