Custom Design
Creating luxury, one-of-a-kind custom pieces is what we love to do. Come in or contact us with your thoughts and ideas and we can help create exactly what you are looking for. Below is some information about how the custom process works. We look forward to working with you soon!
Inspiration
Vision
It all starts with your vision. We can't wait to work with you to interpret your ideas and visions and bring them to life with a piece of jewelry that will last a lifetime.
Computer Aided Design
Design
We will establish the overall direction and concept of your desired piece. We use sophisticated jewelry design software to create computer 3D models. This allows you to make modifications to any element of the 3D-rendered model until it is perfect and ready for the next stage which is making an actual 3D wax model.
Quote
Gemstones and Metals
Once we agree on the final design we will provide a quote for the project. Here we will confirm budget and the details of stones and metals can be chosen from our vast array of ethical sourcing options. We can also use your own materials if you have family heirlooms that you would like to use.
Wax Model
Approval
From the approved 3D design, prototypes are then milled or grown using CNC machines & 3D printers or they will be hand carved depending on your specific design. You can then touch and feel the wax model and give final approval.
Creation
Making your unique piece
At this stage it is where time honored old world handcrafted techniques meet innovative modern technology. We fabricate by hand as well as using the lost wax casting process. From the wax mold your piece is cast and then ready to be hand finished.
Finishing
Final Steps
Once the piece meets our high standards of quality, the cast is ready for stone setting. All our stones are carefully hand-set. These final steps involves the art and skill of craftsmanship. Then it is ready for you to pick up and show off to your friends!
