Custom Jewelry Process

From Sketch To Heirloom


Creating a one-of-a-kind piece is easier than you think. It's as simple as sharing your ideas, along with any images or sketches, so we can understand your vision. Our jewelers take it from there.

As Easy As 1-2-3

Step One

The Sketch

Your idea on paper, a photo of something you love, or simply a conversation.

Step Two

The Rendering

A detailed computer design you can review and refine before anything is made.

Step Three

The Finished Piece

Your one-of-a-kind piece, handcrafted at our bench in your chosen metal.

Start To Finish

Custom Jewelry, Start To Finish

Here's exactly what to expect when you work with us on a custom piece, from the first conversation to the day you take it home.

01

Let's Begin

Tell us what you have in mind by filling out our custom piece form, or give us a call to talk with our jewelry artist and set up a personal appointment.

02

Share Your Vision

Share a photo of a similar piece, sketch out your idea, show us an object that inspires you, or simply describe what you're picturing to our metalsmith.

03

Bring Any Stones You'd Like To Use

A diamond from your grandmother's engagement ring or any other stones you love can become part of your custom piece. Don't have any? No problem. We can help you choose from our vast collection.

04

Collaborate With Our Jewelry Artist

We stay in touch throughout the entire process to make sure you're completely happy with every detail.

05

Review A Computer Rendering

Our CAD software faithfully turns your vision into a detailed rendering, so you can see your design before anything is made. We proudly use CounterSketch to create and modify custom jewelry projects.

06

Try On A 3D Prototype

Once you approve your design, we create a 3D wax or resin model you can touch and try on before it's cast in your chosen metal. CAD never replaces our jewelers or hand fabrication, but it gives you an important preview of your piece.

07

Your Jewelry Is Ready

We'll call you as soon as it's finished so you can start wearing your one-of-a-kind creation right away, and hopefully pass it down someday.
