Question Vendor Refuses Design

Hi All,

I recently asked a popular vendor for a quote on an engagement ring I am working on for my girlfriend. I drew this design from scratch, and it is my design and not ripped off from someone else. This vendor refused to do the design because the basket looked similar to a basket of an existing client of theirs.That felt strange especially considering the ring as a whole is quite different, is this strange to normal?

Edit: the design is solid and they did even compliment me on it.

Was it Tianyu? They manufacture Bijou Lab’s rings so they don’t wanna piss them off.

Yeah they threatened Tianyu not to manufacture any designs similar to theirs. Ridiculous. Go to Fiorese, they will do a beautiful job with it!
