What kind of work do I do ? I design and handcraft luxury jewellery pieces by commission, artistic whim and also "recycle” customers’ old pieces into new designs.
What kinds of pieces do I make? I make one of a kind pieces of jewellery, from the initial design to hand manufacturing.
Materials
What kind of materials do I work with? Any material, however, predominantly precious metals such as platinum, 18K yellow, red, white and pink gold, and I can source a variety of precious and semi-precious stones. I have also experimented, with great success, using from wood to iron.
Sizing
How do I determine my ring size? My preference is to have your finger sized at a retailer using a standard ring sizer. If the prior option is not accessible to you, a simple trick to sizing from home would be to wrap a strip of paper around your finger, mark the point in which the paper overlaps and measure the segmented strip with a ruler.
If I like one of the premade pieces, but it is not in my size, can I have it resized? If you wish to resize, please contact us by phone or email with the following information prepared:
Item name/SKU number
Desired ring size
Please be aware that not all rings may have their size altered due to the integrity of the piece’s architecture. If you are not sure if your desired piece is alterable feel free to contact us or you may reference the ring’s description on our website where it should be written.
Custom Designs & Alterations
If I like one of the premade pieces but want to alter the design, how can I go about that? For any purchases that require design alterations, please contact us by phone or email so that we may schedule a meeting or call in order to discuss designs. We can discuss over various media methods (Facetime, Zoom, Whatsapp, etc…) and from there I can sketch revised designs until you approve the one you like.
If I like one of the predesigned pieces but would like a new piece made with slight design changes, will the price be the same? In the case that all the materials in the custom piece are more or less the same, in general a slight price increase is to be expected with the varying and rising costs of precious metals and materials.
Shipping & Pricing
Are there additional shipping costs? No! Shipping is free.
What is the form of payment for commissioned pieces, do you require a deposit? A deposit of 30-50% is required and the balance of payment is required before shipping.
I have a lot of old jewellery pieces that I would love to have remade into new pieces. How do I go about getting the pieces to you, and how do we calculate the value of the pieces? You can ship the pieces to me via your preferred method/shipper (i.e. Fedex) and once I have received the goods we will review together over various media methods (FaceTime, Zoom, etc…), initially I will evaluate the pieces and from there if you are in agreement I will sketch and design pieces for you. All shipping expenses are borne by the buyer.
If I live outside North America are you able to ship internationally? Yes.
