Though all of this may sound like a lot at first, we are with you every step of the way. After we have created the brief, we will come back to you with an initial design and estimate.
The initial design will include front and top views and any particular design details. If being designed as a set, the matching wedding will also be provided. This is the time to give feedback and to start discussing details. If you have a type of stone in mind we will start sourcing stones. Size, quality and colour all influence the cost of the stone. We are unable to recycle old stones or allow customers to source their own stones.
As a brand, we have chosen to work exclusively with lab-grown diamonds in all of our jewellery pieces. Sourcing stones that are grown using this advanced technological method allows us to be 100% certain that they are conflict free and environmentally conscious, all while being visually indistinguishable from mined diamonds.
By opting for lab-grown diamonds, we’re also able to ensure that there is no uncertainty or scepticism about the origins of your stone. All diamonds come paired with GIA or IGI certification, and have been carefully selected from one of three industry leading growers - located in New York, Washington and Antwerp.
Once the stone has been purchased and your design has been finalised, we start the making process. Some pieces are made entirely from hand, others use 3D technology to help craft your bespoke piece. We are unable to recycle gold from previous pieces but we offer a gold buy back program. This program allows you to recycle old gold for us to sell back back to our refiner. The price of gold varies from day to day, and we can provide you with a quote at the time of your appointment. We will weigh the gold in front of you, and you then sign a release form if you decide to go ahead with the buy back. Again, talk to us about your budget, we want you to have a piece of jewellery that you will love forever and won’t set you back half a house mortgage.
Along the way, there will be multiple intervals for discussion, so that everyone can rest easy knowing that your dream jewellery is on the right path to becoming exactly the piece you want. We will keep you updated with photos, sketches, 3D renders and stone options, and even videos.
No matter what your vision is, one thing is certain - there’s just something so much more special and exciting about bespoke pieces. Our most memorable pieces have been those that we’ve worked hand-in-hand with customers to create.
If all of this sounds good to you, and you think it might be time to start creating your own bespoke jewellery, don’t hesitate to get in touch! We love being part of your story and creating a piece of jewellery to last a lifetime.
