I cannot recommend Nicole Mera enough for your custom fine jewelry needs.

our custom bands together was one of the more enjoyable experiences for him. I was very nervous about the band being flush with my engagement ring or being too bulky and taking away from my Marquis diamond. Nikki made sure to listen to what we cared about and steered clear from anything we disliked. Nikki also made sure to keep us informed during every step of the process and made me feel more than comfortable trusting her with my engagement ring and band. My ring set came back perfect and I can’t wait to show it off. Nikki you’ve got a customer for life!

I get so many compliments on my ring, and knowing the love, attention to detail and time that Nikki and my fiancé put into designing and making it a reality makes it even more special.

There are endless possibilities with Nikki as your guide. She also taught us a lot about different ring metals and stones in short amount of time. (One of us has a science degree.) Our final end products were exactly what we wanted: unique, durable band for him and a customized, hand engraved eternity band for her that evokes that art deco band style. All within the stated budget! Nikki hand delivered these rings to us - making another trip to Austin. She stands by her work for a lifetime and when we look at the craftsmanship, we agree these will last. We felt we were in great hands with her and look forward to working with her again for future, special, jewelry needs.

Everything from a one of a kind diamond, a halo diamond with surrounding diamond details, to the signature yellow diamond on the inside of the band, and even a very special personalized engraving.

quality jewelry and patiently walked us through every option to meet the ultimate look I wanted to achieve. Nikki reset and redesigned my engagement ring around my beloved solitaire on a brilliant eternity band, and I'll never forget how my husband and I were both blown away when we pulled the final product out of the shipping box when we received the redesigned engagement ring and my eternity wedding band. The center stone of the engagement ring looked twice as large as it had before! There was genuinely a moment where we questioned whether the stone was the same because it looked brighter and bigger. Nikki's vision and unbeatable craftsmanship elevated my engagement ring to a level I never knew existed. Our only regret is that we didn't start the process with Nikki first. I had so much fun working on my rings with Nikki that I commissioned her to create an eternity band for my mother-in-law's 60th birthday present with her kids names inscribed inside, and a pair of asscher cut earrings for myself! We both accept compliments on behalf of Nikki’s work every day!
