The Marla Chevron Diamond Band
Design Process
The Lisa Robin Wedding Band Experience
A thoughtful process designed to bring clarity and confidence to the creation of your wedding band.
Our collection is intentionally edited — each wedding band design reflects a distinct point of view, with proportions and details that set it apart from what you've likely been seeing online.
When something here resonates, the decision tends to feel clear.
From there, we guide you in refining the details to align the design with your preferences.
Once you've chosen your wedding band, you'll select the core elements that define the design:
- Metal type
- Natural or lab-grown diamonds (if applicable)
- Finger size
- Optional engraving
If your wedding band will be worn alongside an engagement ring, we can help you evaluate how the proportions and overall profile will sit together and feel over time.
These decisions are focused and straightforward — so you can move forward with clarity.
If you'd like to adjust your diamond wedding ring, we guide you through a thoughtful refinement process — ensuring any changes support the overall balance and feel of the design.
Common refinements may include:
- Adjusting band width or profile
- Refining diamond size or spacing
- Subtle modifications to improve pairing or wearability
Each change is considered within the context of the full design, so the final ring feels cohesive and intentional from every angle.
For custom refinements, we provide renderings for review before crafting begins — so you can move forward with complete confidence.
Every custom wedding band is hand-crafted to order based on your final selections.
- Crafted specifically for your chosen design and refinements
- No pre-made inventory or resizing shortcuts
- Typical timeline: 2–3 weeks
If additional clarity is helpful before crafting begins, we can guide you through the next steps to ensure everything feels aligned.

Women's Wedding Rings — Frequently Asked Questions
The style choice flows from personal aesthetic, the engagement ring you're pairing with, and how the wedding ring should read on the hand. Modern minimal (Drew, Macey, Tanner) reads clean and refined. Vintage (Frances, Leaf and Vine, Vintage Floral) carries period design language with milgrain and floral detail. Contemporary distinctive (Vashti east-west marquise, Marlowe leaf curved) has individual character without specific period reference. Pavé bands produce continuous sparkle; eternity rings produce substantial diamond brilliance; plain gold bands let the metal be the design. Most importantly, the wedding ring should typically coordinate with the engagement ring in metal, design vocabulary, and width proportion. We discuss style during the design conversation.
Not all engagement rings need curved or chevron wedding bands. Round and oval solitaire engagement rings with standard shanks pair well with straight wedding bands. Engagement rings with low-set centers, distinctive shanks, geometric outlines, or unusual proportions often benefit from curved or contoured wedding bands that nest flush against them. Princess cut and baguette engagement rings often pair best with chevron (V-shape) wedding bands. We can assess your specific engagement ring during the design conversation — ideally with the ring on hand or with detailed photographs — and recommend whether a straight, curved, chevron, or custom contoured band fits best.
Yes, in many cases. For couples who designed their engagement ring with us, we have records of the ring's specifications (diamond size, metal alloy, band proportion, design details) and can design a wedding band that explicitly matches or coordinates. The Bellamy and Brooklyn wedding sets are examples of engagement ring + wedding band designed as a matched pair. For couples whose engagement ring is from elsewhere, we can design a wedding band that pairs visually based on photographs and specifications, though exact metal alloy or finish matching may not be possible if the engagement ring uses non-standard specifications. We discuss matching during the design conversation.
Common widths for women's wedding rings range from 1.3mm (very refined narrow accent — Frances) through 4mm (substantial). The most chosen widths are 1.5mm-2.5mm for refined design and 2.5mm-3.5mm for more substantial visual presence. The wedding band's width should typically be narrower than or equal to the engagement ring's shank width — a wider wedding band against a narrower engagement ring shank creates visual imbalance. Hand proportion also matters: smaller hands typically pair best with narrower bands; larger hands can carry wider bands proportionately. We discuss width during the design conversation based on your engagement ring and hand.
Yes. Many of our wedding ring designs come in scales suitable for both women's and men's wedding rings — the Tanner family is the clearest example, offered in five widths from 2mm to 10mm in the same design vocabulary. Couples often choose Tanner for both partners but in different widths (4mm for one, 6mm for the other). Other matched options include same-design pairs in coordinated metals, vintage-style ring pairs (one partner Frances vintage diamond, other partner plain gold), or designed pairs where each partner chooses a ring that coordinates without matching exactly. We discuss matched options during a joint design appointment or individual conversations with each partner.
Yes, with some caveats. Half eternity diamond bands and partial-diamond rings can be resized within a reasonable range (typically 2-3 sizes up or down). Plain gold rings (Tanner family) resize more easily (4-5 sizes). Full eternity rings generally cannot be resized because diamonds run around the entire circumference, preventing the cutting needed for resize work. Specific designs have specific resize characteristics — we discuss resizability during the design conversation, particularly if you anticipate finger size changes (pregnancy, weight changes, aging). For couples wanting maximum resize flexibility, half eternity, partial-diamond, or plain designs are the practical choice.
Women's wedding rings in this collection are made-to-order in approximately 2-3 weeks from when your order is placed. The crafting process includes alloying the metal, forming the band, hand-setting any diamonds, and final finishing. Eternity rings with many diamonds may take the full 3 weeks; narrow accent bands typically finish in 2 weeks. Custom women's wedding ring designs take 3-4 weeks from design approval. Interior engraving adds approximately 1 week to any timeline. For wedding date deadlines, confirm timeline during the order conversation and we'll let you know if rush options are available.
Matching diamond cut vocabulary between engagement ring and wedding band reads more coherent than mixing cuts. If your engagement ring has a round brilliant center, a wedding band with round brilliant accent diamonds reads as a coordinated pair. If your engagement ring has an emerald cut center, a wedding band with emerald cut or baguette diamonds (both step-cut) reads coordinated. If your engagement ring has a marquise center, marquise or curved wedding bands read coordinated. Mixing cut vocabularies can be intentional (round center with baguette wedding band, for example) but works best when both rings stand on their own and the contrast is deliberate. We discuss cut coordination during the design conversation.
Yes. All diamond specifications can be customized: origin (lab grown or natural), quality (standard VS-SI1 / E-F-G or higher), and in some designs, total carat weight and individual diamond size. Lab grown diamonds reduce cost approximately 40-60% compared to natural diamonds of the same specifications. For wedding bands carrying accent diamonds (most of this collection), the visual difference between lab grown and natural is undetectable. We discuss diamond customization during the design conversation based on your visual preferences and budget.
Pricing varies significantly by design, diamond count, total carat weight, diamond quality, and metal choice. Plain gold Tanner wedding bands start around $700 (2mm 14K). Narrow accent diamond bands (Frances, Macey) range $1,200-$1,800. Half eternity diamond bands range $2,000-$4,000. Full eternity rings range $3,500-$8,000+ depending on diamond size. Statement diamond wedding rings (Gabby with 0.90 carats) range $4,000+. Vintage-style and designed rings vary based on complexity. Lab grown diamonds reduce cost approximately 40-60% compared to natural. Platinum adds approximately $400 over 14K gold. Specific pricing is confirmed during the design conversation.
