Step Three

Once you approve the final design, we cast your piece. Then, we set the stones & polish and we’re done! Your beautiful piece is ready to be picked up.

Want to Rework a Piece?

A bulk of what we do is custom design using our customers’ pieces. We’re able to rework existing pieces of jewelry to give an updated look, or to ensure antique pieces last another lifetime!

Whether you have complete pieces or fragments here and there from family jewelry, we can custom make a piece you or your loved ones will enjoy.

To find out how we can rework a piece, schedule a time to come in and speak with one of our design consultants. We look forward to working with you and making the jewelry of your dreams!

Custom FAQs

•What is the custom design process like? 
Each consultation is different! We can start with a design idea, or we can start from scratch. Many people start with a photo reference that we can use as an inspiration. If you don't have any photo references, that's okay. We have a large selection of prototypes in the store for you to view. We're here to help design the perfect piece! 

•What should I bring to my consultation? 
If you have any pre-existing jewelry you would like to use in the new piece, please bring them to your consultation. We do have a setting fee for any large stones brought in by customers. 

•What is your turn around time for custom pieces? 
Depending on how intricate the design is, we are currently at a 4-6 week turnaround from the moment of design approval. During our peak custom order season (August - December) this can increase to 7 weeks. Our caster does have a selection of pre-made settings that can cut down the timeline. 

•Is there a consultation fee? 
There is no consultation fee. In most cases we do send you a 3D render of the design(s) we have agreed upon during your consultation. We offer 2 complimentary renders and any small changes at no cost. If we have to make a new 3rd+ design, or if the changes you request require more work, we do charge $45 per new render. 

•How long is my quote good for? 
Our quotes are good for 1 week. After 1 week, we will have to requote you based on the current metal market. 

•What information should I have before setting up my consultation? 
No information is needed, but it is a good idea to consider: 
- Ring Size or Necklace Length
- Budget (specific or broad)
- Metal Color Preference (Yellow, White, Or Rose)
- Stone Preference (Gemstone, Mined or Lab Grown Diamonds, Moissanite, ect.)

These are some 3D renderings we have created throughout the years. When you schedule a time to stop by and have a consultation, we create these renderings for you to have a better idea of the designs we can create for you.

Some renderings were turned into pieces, others are archived for future creation!
