Sketches

A designer will sit down with you and listen to your ideas on your new piece of jewelry. Sketches are then completed to help you make your descision.

Wax carving and or metal fabrication

Once a sketch is approved, a model of the piece is hand carved in wax. You will be able to try on this model and in most cases, have your stones temporarily attached. Changes can still be made to a wax carving after your inspection and approval. Metal fabrication skips this process and allows the piece to be hand made out of raw metal to the specifications of the original design.

Mold

Upon approval of the wax, the piece is cast in our on-site foundry. We cast in 14k and 18k gold and in platinum. The piece is then hand finished, smoothed and polished then stone set. Each piece comes with an appraisal.
