The actor reached out to jewelry designer friend.

Actor Jesse Metcalfe tells AP that with some assistance, he designed the diamond engagement ring he gave his fiancee, actress Cara Santana (shown, with ring, in Instagram video). According to the interview, the “John Tucker Must Die” star reached out to a friend, jewelry maker Adam Campbell, for help creating the ring, which features an emerald-cut diamond. “I wanted a really feminine, delicate low-profile setting and band,” Metcalfe says, “with diamonds all the way around the band and the basket, and really small prongs holding the diamond.”

Looking for a Seamless Sale? Call Wilkerson

After almost 60 years in business, Breakiron Jewelers in Erie, Pennsylvania, was closing its doors. And the store’s owner, Linda Breakiron, was ready for it. She had run the store as its sole owner since the beginning of the millennium and was looking forward to a change. Of course, she called Wilkerson. Breakiron talked to other jewelers who had used Wilkerson and was satisfied with their response. “They always had positive feedback,” she recalls. With the sales, marketing and even additional inventory that Wilkerson provided, Breakiron insists she could never have accomplished her going-out-of-business sale without Wilkerson’s help. She’s now ready for the journey ahead, but looking back, she’d be sure to recommend Wilkerson. “They just made the whole process very seamless.”
