A jewelry CAD is a computer-generated model used to define a ring’s structure and dimensions before production.

What CAD can show

• Stone position and orientation
• Prong, bezel, basket, gallery, and bridge construction
• Band width and thickness
• Overall height and side profile
• Wedding-band clearance

What CAD may not show realistically

Metal often appears thicker, sharper, and less polished than the finished ring. Rendered gemstones and reflections are also approximations.

What to verify before approval

Check exact stone dimensions, prong count, corner protection, setting height, shank measurements, metal, ring size, side-stone layout, and any flush-fit requirements.

Approval should be based on the written specifications and construction, not only on whether the rendering looks attractive.
