How a commission unfolds
Five weeks, four stages, zero surprises — you approve every step before we move to the next.
Design
One piece, made once, for one person. We start with a conversation and a sketchbook, move through wax models you can hold, and finish at the bench with a hallmark and a handshake. Most commissions take five weeks door to door.
Renew
Worn prongs, cracked shanks, stones that no longer sit right — or a piece whose style stopped fitting your life two decades ago. We restore conservatively and redesign bravely, and we will always tell you which one your piece actually needs.
Assure
Insurance-grade appraisals with full photographic documentation, delivered within ten business days. Loose stones are graded by our in-house GIA gemologist; significant pieces can be sent for laboratory certification on request.
We talk budget, stones, and the person the piece is for. You leave with sketches, not a sales pitch.
A carved wax model you can hold and try. Changes at this stage are free — that's what wax is for.
Cast in recycled gold or platinum, then stones are set by hand under the microscope.
Polish, hallmark, photography for your records, and a care plan that covers the first resize.
Most requested
A one-of-one piece designed with you, in recycled gold or platinum.
From prong re-tips to full rebuilds of inherited pieces.
Insurance-grade documentation by our in-house gemologist.
An engagement ring that doesn't exist yet. A family stone reimagined. A piece for a moment words can't hold. Our bespoke service begins with a private conversation and ends, some weeks later, with something that belongs to no one else in the world.
