Get the Details Behind Netflix Star Francesca Farago's 'Romantic and Ethereal' Engagement Ring (Exclusive)
The Too Hot to Handle and Perfect Match reality television star announced her engagement to TikToker Jesse Sullivan Tuesday
TikTok star Jesse Sullivan knew exactly what he wanted when it came to designing a bespoke engagement ring for fiancée Francesca Farago.
"Jesse had so many incredible ideas for Francesca's engagement ring and began thinking through the design in August of last year," Nicole Wegman, founder and CEO of New York City-based luxury jeweler Ring Concierge, tells PEOPLE exclusively. She and Sullivan worked together on creating the custom rock for the Netflix star, 29.
Going into the process a few months ago, Sullivan already had a few ideas in mind. One of them was getting a Toi et Moi cut, which came to fruition in a two-stone design with a vine detail surrounding the stones and small Marquise diamonds representing Farago's grandmother's ring, explains Wegman.
"We helped Jesse decide on what diamond cuts best embodied Francesca's style and bring his vision to life," she adds.
Sullivan also had a "clear idea of what he wanted the ring to represent — something that was both romantic and ethereal."
That touch of personalization and sentimentality came courtesy of a custom paw print engraving on the inside of the band, dedicated to the couple's Pomeranian pet.
Overall, Wegman says that the ring design was adapted to fit Farago's evolving vision. But, in the end, the final piece housed "all the details Francesca loved into one perfect ring" that Sullivan "fell in love" with.

"WE'RE ENGAGED🤍 a glimpse into the most magical night ever💍 obsessed with our family.. what is life !!" wrote Farago, who also starred in the reality television series Too Hot to Handle.
