We're sort of jewelry fiends on Bridal Musings, could you tell?
Whether it's our top sites to shop for engagement rings, favorite alternative engagement rings, beautiful men's engagement rings & even engagement rings under $1,000 – Melissa Tyson Designs' stunning creations always make our list.
There's a reason for our outpouring love. Melissa Tyson Designs‘ rings are absolutely unique. Not only does she literally create one-of-a-kind, custom engagement rings, but her collection boasts details that make each piece singular. Using alternative gemstones, stunning salt & pepper diamonds, wildly-cool hand-hammered 14k gold bands, avant-garde shapes & an overall ‘Je ne sais quois' her jewelry is so ‘iconically Melissa'.
