Introducing Rapaport Studio

Build your customer's ring around an eligible natural diamond on Rapaport Trade, while Rapaport manages production, quality checks and delivery.

Written by Philippa Corrick

Rapaport Studio lets you build a finished ring for your customer around an eligible natural diamond on Rapaport Trade. You choose the diamond and the design. Rapaport manages the purchase, production, quality checks and delivery.

Available now to all Rapaport Trade members in the US, at no extra cost. Select Rapaport Studio in the left-hand menu to get started.


Benefits

  • Everything in one place: source the diamond and build the ring without managing separate vendors.

  • One contact, one invoice: Rapaport coordinates the supplier and manufacturer and invoices you once for the diamond and ring.

  • Review before you commit: we confirm the diamond, final price and delivery estimate before you order.

  • Rapaport's stamp of approval: we inspect the diamond before manufacture and the finished ring, including the precious metal, before delivery.

  • Design choice: around 130 settings in our collection, or request a fully custom design.


How it works

Choose the diamond or setting

Click Start with a diamond, or browse Our Exclusive Setting Collection and filter by center diamond shape, ring style and metal. For something not in the collection, use Custom Design.

If you start with a diamond, the search shows only diamonds Rapaport Studio can use, from its approved suppliers in New York. These filters stay on, but you can filter by shape, size and everything else as usual.

Each ring is named by its style and a Rapaport code, for example Halo Setting RPT-ER-0067. Quote this code if you message us about a ring.

Customize the ring

Choose the metal, metal color, center diamond shape and ring size. Then select a Rapaport Trade diamond. You can add engraving or special instructions for the manufacturer.

If the ring has side stones, open Summary to see how many there are and their total carat weight, for example "24 · 0.364 ct total weight". Side stones are part of the setting and don't change with the metal, size or diamond.

Review and send your request

Check the price summary:

  • Setting & service (including side stones)

  • Shipping: $35 on every ring order, included in the total

  • The diamond, once you've chosen it

All payments are made through Rapaport Trade. When you're ready, accept the Jewelry Builder Agreement and click Place order, or click Save draft to come back later.

Placing an order isn't final yet. It doesn't reserve the diamond or commit you to buy. We confirm the diamond, final price and delivery date before anything is made.


After you order

Track every order in My Orders. Each one moves through these stages: Order received, Order validation, Payment made, Diamond delivery, Manufacturing, Shipping and Delivered. Use Message Rapaport on an order if you have a question.

  • You pay by wire or bank transfer once the order is confirmed.

  • Rapaport New York inspects the diamond, then the finished ring, including the precious metal.

  • Your ring is made in the USA, in about 14 business days from payment.


Good to know

  • Desktop only for now. Rapaport Studio isn't in the mobile app yet.

  • The first price covers the setting and service, including side stones, plus $35 shipping. The full total, including the diamond, shows once you've chosen it.

  • Custom designs are quoted separately and don't include the $35 shipping line.

  • Customer-owned diamonds and setting-only orders aren't supported.
