Custom jewelry, made with you

From engraving a signet to a ring drawn for one person. Here is what we can do, what it costs in time, and how it works.

What we can make

  • Engraving 2 to 3 weeks

    Initials, dates or a short word, engraved by hand on signets, medallions and bands. Free, 2 to 3 weeks.

  • Stone and metal changes 3 to 5 weeks

    A collection design in another gold color or karat, or with a different stone we source for you.

  • Engagement and wedding rings 4 to 8 weeks

    Compare diamonds and sapphires in the studio, then choose the setting and band.

  • New designs 6 to 10 weeks

    A piece drawn for you by Vera, from a first conversation to the finished jewel.

  • Resetting your stone 4 to 8 weeks

    A family stone moved into a new setting, after our gemologist checks it is sound.

  • Resizing 1 to 2 weeks

    One free resize within 60 days on plain bands and solitaires. At cost after that.

What can and cannot be changed

We would rather tell you now than halfway through. If something is not on either list, ask.

  • Metal color and karat on most collection pieces
  • Ring size, chain length and bracelet length
  • Stone type, shape and size within what a setting can hold safely
  • Engraving on signets, medallions and the inside of bands
  • Plating, vermeil or silver: we only work in solid 14k and 18k gold
  • Resizing full eternity or stacked settings
  • Copies of another jeweler's signature designs
  • Stones our gemologist judges unsafe to set

How a commission works

  1. Submit an inquiry

    Use the form below. Tell us the idea, the budget and any date you are working to.

  2. Discuss the concept

    A call or studio visit to talk through design, metal, stones and how it will be worn.

  3. Receive an estimate and timeline

    A written price range and schedule, with sketches for new designs.

  4. Approve the design

    You sign off the final drawing, metal, stones and measurements before anything is made.

  5. Confirm the order

    Bespoke work starts with a 50% deposit. The balance is due before delivery.

  6. Follow the making

    Photos at casting, setting and polishing, so you see it come together.

  7. Delivery or collection

    Insured delivery, or collect it from the studio and we will size it on you.

Deposits, timelines and approvals here describe our usual process; your written estimate sets the exact terms. Read what to know before ordering custom jewelry.
