Let's Personalize It
Customize + Engrave
At Carter's Jewel Chest, we specialize in creating custom rings and personalized engravings that bring your vision to life. Whether you're dreaming up a one-of-a-kind engagement ring or adding a meaningful message to a cherished piece, our team will guide you through every step of the process.
From sketch to finished design, we’re here to make sure your jewelry tells your story in a way that’s personal and unforgettable.
Design it Yourself
Customize Your Jewelry
We believe that jewelry is not just about carats and karats. It's a form of self-expression. You want your jewelry to say something about who you are as a person or to symbolize your unique relationship with the person you love.
Carter's Jewel Chest is thrilled to work with you on a bespoke jewelry commission and to help make your vision a reality.
Three Ways to Make It Yours
Whether you want to design something completely one-of-a-kind or personalize a band in just a few clicks, we offer three distinct ways to customize your jewelry.
1. Fully Custom Design (Start In-Store)
Best for: Engagement rings, heirloom redesigns, one-of-a-kind pieces
This is our true custom experience.
You’ll sit down with one of our associates to design your piece from scratch. We’ll talk ideas, select stones, and create a CAD (computer-aided design) rendering so you can see your piece before it’s made.
Perfect if you:
- Want something completely original
- Have inspiration photos
- Are redesigning an heirloom
- Want hands-on guidance from start to finish
This is our most personal and collaborative option.

2. Build Your Own Band (Lashbrook Design Studio)
Best for: Wedding bands, men’s bands, alternative metals
Through our design studio microsite, you can build your band online in real time — choosing metal type, finish, width, inlays, engraving, and more.
It’s quick, visual, and perfect for someone who:
- Knows exactly what they want
- Is designing a wedding band
- Loves modern materials and customization
- Prefers to experiment online before visiting
You can design it yourself — and we’ll handle the rest.
3. Design Your Engagement Ring (Start the Conversation)
Best for: Getting ideas flowing before meeting with us
This interactive tool allows you to build your dream engagement-style ring online — choose the setting, shape, metal, and details.
It’s not a final checkout — it’s a starting point.
Once submitted, one of our associates will personally reach out to:
- Refine your design
- Discuss diamond options
- Adjust budget and details
- Guide you into our full custom process
Think of this as your inspiration builder that transitions into Option #1.

If you're unsure, start with the engagement builder or schedule a custom consultation. We’re happy to guide you in the right direction.
Custom Engraving
We’re proud to offer custom laser engraving as part of our in-house services.
Our state-of-the-art laser engraver allows us to add precise, personalized details—from meaningful dates and names to intricate patterns and handwriting.
Our engraving services go beyond jewelry—we can personalize almost any metal surface, including Secrid wallets, Yeti tumblers, keys, and more. Whether it’s a name, date, logo, or meaningful message, we’ll help you create a custom piece that’s both functional and uniquely yours.
