Shapiro Diamonds, a Dallas-based custom jewelry store, has launched an advanced 3D blueprint experience for custom engagement rings. The store, led by Lance and Kendra Shapiro, specializes in handcrafted engagement rings and fine jewelry using natural and lab-grown diamonds.

Personalized Design Process

The 3D blueprint experience allows clients to visualize and refine their designs before production. The process begins with detailed consultations covering stone proportions, ring structure, setting style, and long-term wear considerations. Advanced digital tools enable clients to review accurate measurements and design angles from every perspective before final approval.

Lance Shapiro, diamond expert and founder of Shapiro Diamonds, explains that the goal of the 3D blueprint experience is to eliminate uncertainty from custom jewelry design. “Most clients have never designed a ring before, yet they are expected to make decisions on something deeply personal and financially significant,” he says. “Our goal is to make everything visible upfront so there are no surprises. People should know exactly what they are getting before we move into production.”

Kendra Shapiro, jewelry designer and owner, notes that the process becomes even more meaningful once clients can physically interact with their design. “When clients hold the wax model, everything changes for them,” she says. “They can feel the proportions, understand the scale, and see how the design sits on the hand. That moment gives them confidence in a way a screen never fully can.”
