Custom Jewelry

We believe jewelry is art, and each item created is as special as you. With that being said, every new creation is also a reflection of you, we closely listen during the custom consultation, carefully creating your exact needs, designing every custom jewelry item a unique one of a kind piece of art! For this and so many more reasons, we love working with you to create something as simple as a solitaire drop pendant, to the most elegant of family heirlooms.

After 3 generations and a 1/2 century later, we have the techniques to create what you want. Our team of experts are constantly learning and refining their technique to make sure your Custom jewelry reflects exactly what you imagined.

From Concept to Jewelry Creation

We make custom jewelry design simple, collaborative, and something you’ll always remember.

Step 1: The Consultation

During this meeting we will talk about what you want. Whether it’s a sketch, images, or just a feeling this is when you tell us your vision and ideas.

Step 2: Material Selection

You’ll get expert help selecting the right gemstones and metals—whether a diamond, birthstone, or something rare. We’ll explain pros and cons so you can choose wisely.

Step 3: Design & Artistry

With your input and inspiration we will, Cad design and show you renderings, to help you understand visually with several different view points showing you how your item is shaping into just what you've always desired.

Step 4: 3D Prototyping & Virtual Fit

We grow from resin a 3D prototype. This allows for your design, shown on a computer screen, to now be held. Possibly slipping it on to a finger, showcasing how it fits and giving a visual size understanding. We temporarily set gemstones in place to give you the ultimate satisfaction that you received everything you asked for.

Step 5: Master Craftsmanship

Using traditional goldsmithing tools and a jeweler’s eye for detail, we will handcraft your piece in our store. No outsourcing, just timeless techniques and skilled hands creating your dream piece.

Step 6: The Unveiling

This is where you’ll see your vision turned into something real. We’ll check the fit, make any needed adjustments, and send you home with a piece you’ll be proud to wear or gift.
