How We Create Your Custom Jewelry

Creating custom jewelry isn't complicated - it's actually pretty exciting. Here's how it works:

Come visit us or set up a video call. Bring your ideas, Pinterest boards, or just a vague sense of what you want. We'll talk through styles, budgets, and possibilities. No commitment required - this is just a conversation.

Our designers create sketches and computer renderings based on your vision. You'll see exactly what your piece will look like from every angle. Want to change the setting? Make the band thicker? No problem. We refine the design until it's perfect.

This is where it gets fun. We'll show you certified diamonds, colorful gemstones, and different metal options. Want to understand the difference between platinum and white gold? We'll explain everything in plain English. Our job is to help you make confident choices.

Our skilled jewelers handcraft your piece using techniques passed down through generations. We combine old-world artistry with modern precision to create something that lasts. This part usually takes 4-8 weeks, depending on complexity.

Before you see your piece, we examine it under magnification. Stone settings, polish, proportions -everything gets checked and double-checked. We're picky because this jewelry represents both our reputation and your story.

There's nothing quite like seeing your custom piece for the first time. We present it in beautiful packaging, and if anything isn't exactly right, we'll make it right. Your happiness is what matters.

FAQs

Questions About Custom Jewelry? We've Got Answers.

How long does the whole process take?

Most custom jewelry takes between 4 to 8 weeks from your first consultation to final pickup. Simple designs might be faster, more intricate pieces might take a bit longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline during your consultation and keep you updated along the way. Need it by a specific date? Let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate.

What does custom jewelry cost?

It really depends on what you want to create. The cost varies based on your choice of materials - the type of metal, size and quality of diamonds or gemstones, and how intricate the design is. The good news? During your free consultation, we'll talk honestly about your budget and show you what's possible. We work with a wide range of budgets and will never pressure you to spend more than you're comfortable with. Custom doesn't necessarily mean expensive—it means getting exactly what you want.

Can I bring my own ideas or pictures?

Absolutely! Bring whatever inspires you - photos from Instagram, magazine clippings, sketches you made, or pieces you've seen online. We love when people come in with ideas. We'll use them as a starting point and create something uniquely yours. Even if you just have a vague feeling of what you want, we can work with that.

Will I be able to see the design before you make it?

Yes. We create detailed 3D computer renderings that show exactly what your piece will look like from every angle. You can request changes to the design, and we'll revise it until you're completely happy. You'll approve the final design before we start crafting the actual jewelry.

What if I have old jewelry I want to redesign?

We do this all the time. Bring in your old pieces and we'll talk about options. We can use your existing diamonds and gemstones in a completely new design. It's a beautiful way to honor family heirlooms while creating something you'll actually wear. We can also work with the gold from old jewelry, though sometimes starting with new metal gives better results.

*Can you work with different metals in one piece?

Definitely. Mixed metal jewelry is actually really popular right now. We can combine yellow and white gold, add rose gold accents, or mix platinum with gold. It's a great way to create something unique and versatile.
