Rio Grande Launches First Finished Bridal Collection
The new offering comprises more than 120 bridal and engagement ring styles with natural and lab-grown diamonds.

The collection features more than 120 bridal and engagement styles, including engagement rings, wedding bands, and coordinating sets.
The wholesale supplier designed the new styes to help retailers build and deepen their bridal assortment with confidence, it said.
The collection is available in 14- and 18-karat yellow, white, and rose gold as well as platinum.
It also offers both natural and lab-grown diamond options in styles that range from classic solitaires to ornate filigree and design-forward looks for a wide range of customers and price points.
The collection is sold as finished pieces with the center stone.
Pieces retail from $450 to more than $3,960.
Rio Grande said these new offerings were designed to complement its existing portfolio of diamonds, gemstones, mountings, and custom design capabilities.
The wholesale supplier introduced its finished jewelry collection in 2025 as a response to growing retailer demand.
The expansion into finished bridal jewelry reflects Rio Grande’s continued growth from a raw materials supplier to a full-service partner for retailers, designers, and bench jewelers, it said.
“Rio Grande has always been a trusted partner to the jewelry trade, and this expansion into bridal finished jewelry is a natural next step," said Arien Gessner, president of Rio Grande.
"Our customers are increasingly looking for ways to grow and differentiate their bridal business, and we are uniquely positioned to support them, from beautifully finished product they can put in the case today to the custom and modified capabilities that set their offerings apart.”
In addition to finished jewelry, Rio Grande offers direct access to diamonds and gemstones, in-house manufacturing, a partnership with LeachGarner for direct-to-mill metal access, and large-volume contract casting services.
The finished bridal jewelry collection debuted at JCK Las Vegas.
