Custom Design Services

The design process begins by meeting face-to-face at our store. A telephone or email consultation is also possible. You provide drawings, images or designs that have inspired you, or alternatively, choose from our selection to start the design process. From your ideas, we will make hand sketches and, with you, make a decision on the design, gemstones, artistic techniques, finishes and precious metals. We will provide a detailed quotation and time frame for completion for your custom design. A Gemological Institute of America (‘GIA’) Graduate Specialist will help you select conflict-free diamonds and gemstones which are perfect for your design. You can supply your own gemstones. And we can create new items of jewelry from pre-loved items.

STEP 2 - CAD Modeling

3D jewelry design

Cad modeling process

Computer-Assisted Modelling (‘CAD’) is used by our team to create to computerized model of jewelry before such are physically made. It is a critical component of our process enabling experienced designers to transform your draft into reality with detail, precision and the highest manufacturing design workmanship. A 3D file is created and is used to generate rendered images of the final product. Rendering refers to the addition of color for metals, gemstones and shading to create life-like image on a screen from any desired angle.

STEP 3 - Approve Design
