I've
had this ring in my jewelry box for years and haven't worn
it because I don't like it
is there anything I can
do with it?
YES!
Bring those pieces in, whether you don't like the look of
them, or even if you are just ready for a change in style.
We specialize in custom design. We also now have the technology
to show you in 3D what your new piece of jewelry will look
like! We can have lots and lots of fun with your jewelry,
so bring in your old pieces and let's make something stylish
and new for you to wear!
How
does this process work, does it take a long time? How much
does it cost?
First
thing we do is sit down with your old jewelry, loose stones,
or just with your ideas and come up with a design. We will
draw out the design on paper and get all measurements and
information necessary. Then we put it into the computer
in a 3-dimensional jewelry design program so you will be
able to see your piece of jewelry from every direction.
You will get to see the metal color as well as the stone
colors. We'll also be able to make changes before the work
begins, saving you a lot of time and money in the long run.
Once the rendering is approved, we carve the wax using a
milling machine. When the wax is finished, it will be functionally
perfect, since not even a wax carved by hand can be this
exact. The wax is then cast in your choice of metals, 14kt,
18kt, Platinum, or a combination of metals. Then the jewelry
is taken to our master stone setters for finishing. They
ensure the best possible settings for your stones. We bring
the items back in house for final finishing, including a
perfect polish. We then present your new jewelry in a beautiful
box as you enjoy seeing your design ideas come to reality
from a picture we drew just a short time ago!
Custom
designing usually takes anywhere between 2 to 4 weeks, completely
depending on the complexity of the project, and the timing
of all the manufacturing. When we sit down and do our initial
designing, we will be able to give you a more definite date.
Each design is very personal, including the stones and metals
you choose. Therefore there is no flat price for custom
design. When we sit down, we will be able to give you an
approximate cost, and when the 3-d rendering is finished,
we can give you a final cost as we can give you exact weights
of the stones and metals.
