5 out of 5 starsLove the ring!! I actually bought it for my fiancé! I thought it gender neutral enough and suited him perfectly. He loves it and says it is pretty comfortable to wear. Love that the shop has half sizing. The shop owners were absolutely lovely and incredibly kind. The ring got to me pretty quick!

5 out of 5 starsThis ring is stunning. I couldn't be happier with the product, and I wish I had a nice enough camera to capture how perfectly gothic it is.

5 out of 5 starsOnce again, I’m a happy customer, 100%. I have a lot of rings...a lot...and this one is my favorite. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a ring! It’s so beautiful! Im almost hesitant to post a photo because I can’t capture the gorgeousness of it in a picture. A lot of my love for this ring also has to do with the great experience of shopping here. The owners always reach out with great communication. They’re so kind. And absolutely so talented! Thank you so much for the beautiful art that I can wear on my finger💗💕

Begin Your Journey with Us
I knew there was something special about Deb from the moment we first met. It sounds like a cliche; I know, but for anyone who has felt this you know what I am talking about. We just clicked--two kindred spirits who just happened to choose the same co-ed dormitory at Penn State University. What began as a close friendship quickly became something more. Before long, it became clear to me that she was the woman that I would partner with for the rest of my days. In 2001, we graduated from college, purchased our first home, and got married.
From there our professional paths divided, but we have always been constant collaborators in all that we do. Deb spent the next several years working as a bench jeweler in various jewelry stores while I returned to school to become an English professor. After our first son was born, we all began doing art shows together, and Blazer Arts was officially born. In 2008, Deb opened her first shop on Etsy, and our lives were changed forever. Now we have seven shops in total: Happily Ever After debblazer.etsy.com, the Revolution revolutionba.etsy.com, In My Life inmylifebyblazerarts.etsy.com, Sprouts sproutsbyblazerarts.etsy.com, Blazer Studios blazerstudios.etsy.com, Supply In Demand supplyindemand.etsy.com, and our first shop Blazer Arts blazerarts.etsy.com.

Shop policies
We believe that an engagement ring should be special in every way down to the smallest detail. We take that to heart when hand making each individual piece before we send it out to its new home. Quality craftsmanship shouldn't have to cost a fortune!
***Frequently Asked Questions***
--Do you use recycled materials and non-conflict stones?
Of course! We use recycled materials whenever possible. We even recycle our own silver and gold by melting it down in our studio. All of our stones are conflict free and purchased from a reputable source that is SCS Certified.
--How long until I receive my order?
We try to ship our items as quickly as possible; however, each and every ring is custom made to size. Our turnaround time ranges from two to four weeks. If you need your item by a certain date, please just let us know and we will do our utmost to accommodate your request.
--Do you resize?
Yes. We understand how difficult it is to determine the fit of a band over the internet. Rings often fit differently depending on their dimensions. For example, a wide band may require up to a size larger than a thinner band in order to fit comfortably, and comfort fit bands can fit more loosely due to their beveled interiors. Because of these variables, we offer one free resize and only ask that you cover the shipping fees. Our clients may take advantage of this complimentary resizing anytime within one year of receiving their ring as we understand that some may purchase their band well in advance of wearing it daily. Any additional sizing will be $20 USD plus the cost of shipping.
--Do you hallmark your rings with a quality mark and maker's mark?
Yes, we do when it won't damage the integrity of the ring. According to Federal Law, if you quality mark any piece of jewelry you must also add your maker's mark. But there is no requirement to add any mark at all. We do quality mark (.925, 14K, 18K, etc.) and add our maker's mark (BA) on most of our items. However some pieces are either too thin or are too intricately detailed on the outside to mark without harming the piece.
--Will there be a solder joint on my ring?
Yes. All of our rings are custom made to size. We do our best to disguise the joint and even go so far as to go back in with our saws and burs to re-cut any design. Please remember that this does not jeopardize the integrity of the ring. If you were to take your ring to a jewelry store to be sized, they would create solder joints in order to size it.
--Will my sterling silver ring tarnish?
It may. It all depends on how often you wear your ring. Silver tends to tarnish when sitting in the air for a prolonged time. Tarnish is actually oxidation, a reaction on the surface of the silver with the air around it. If you keep your silver pieces in a sealed plastic bag or wear them regularly (so the contact with your skin "polishes" off any oxidation) they should not tarnish as readily. If your silver does tarnish, you can pick up a bottle of Tarn-X at a local grocery store and that will do the trick.
We also use a new exclusive product, Sterlium Plus,™ for many of our rings. It has become the standard for tarnish resistant Silver. It out performs all other formulated anti-tarnish silver alloys such as Argentium Silver. Sterlium Plus™ is a sterling silver alloy that is tarnish resistant and maintains a bright white color. This product is made in the USA and we have been very pleased with it's performance.
--If I order an oxidized ring, will the black wear off?
Yes. It is a surface treatment and will wear, but it only adds to the character of your custom piece. We treat all of our flat black pieces with museum micro wax to help maintain the black finish. But any oxidized and brushed pieces are left natural.
