3D printing is everywhere, but it still feels a bit like science fiction.
You’ve likely heard of 3D printing or seen it used on TV (3D printed organs on Grey’s Anatomy, anyone?). Maybe you even have access to a 3D printer at school or work. But have you considered 3D printed jewelry?

Buying jewelry isn’t the same as buying a new outfit. We’re willing to bet you buy a new piece of clothing at least every other month, so you’re kind of a pro.

If you're thinking of a holiday proposal, the No. 1 item on your shopping list this season is an engagement ring. It will be one of the most cherished, and likely expensive, pieces of jewelry you'll own.
