Creating a Custom Designed Piece of Jewelry in a Few Easy Steps

Creating a new piece of jewelry or repurposing jewelry into a new piece is an exciting and interactive process which results in a piece you will treasure for years.

The journey beings with a conversation………. And a few easy steps!

Step One: You will meet with a Designer

 This will be the most in-depth meeting you will have and it will determine which path you will pursue. You may want to wear your new piece daily. Your Designer will inquire about your lifestyle. Questions like:

“How often will you wear this?” and “Do you lead an active lifestyle?” will help direct the design and ensure the integrity of the piece. We want to create a piece that will endure YOUR test of time.

Then, a bit of fine tuning for the design………

Questions like:

“Do you like delicate jewelry, chunky looks, geometric shapes or antique style?” will be asked. The Designer can show images of each of these types to help you decide your direction.

And then some more choices……….

Which metals and gemstones to use……(back to your lifestyle and how you would like to wear your piece). Your Designer can advise you about which materials are the most durable and preferred for your style. If you will be integrating gemstones and or metals from other pieces of jewelry you have, suggestions will be made at this time. At the end of this first meeting, you will know how your Designer will proceed, you will have and idea of timing and which design method will be used.

Step Two: Your Design!

Equipped with the details of your lifestyle, how you will wear your piece of jewelry and the materials which will be used, your Designer will get to work. A design will be created (most likely) in CAD (computer-aided design) image and a 3D wax that you will be able to hold and envision. Pricing will also be determined. You will meet with your Designer again to review the design, wax, pricing and timing. Your feedback is encouraged and necessary at this stage. If it all looks and sounds like you, we will proceed into the final step of production. If you would like to see any changes in the design, now will be the time to discuss. If changes are to be made in the design, an additional meeting or review will occur. If no changes are necessary, production begins!

Within the determined time, your new piece of jewelry will be created and presented to you for years of your enjoyment!!!
