Bespoke Jewellery FAQs
How long does it take to create a bespoke piece?
The time can vary based on complexity, design intricacies, and materials used. Generally, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. We always recommend starting well in advance if the piece is for a special occasion.
Can I use my own gemstones or metals in the design?
Yes, absolutely! Incorporating your own materials, like gemstones from family heirlooms or gold from old jewellery, can add a personal touch to the piece.
How much does bespoke jewellery cost?
Cost varies based on design, materials, and craftsmanship involved. After the initial consultation and design phase, we provide a detailed quotation. Remember, bespoke is about quality and personalisation, so it might be a bit more than generic pieces.
What if I don’t like the final piece?
We involve our clients in every step to ensure satisfaction. After the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) stage, adjustments can be made. Once crafted, we're committed to tweaking it until you love it.
How do I care for my bespoke jewellery?
While bespoke pieces are handmade with care, regular cleaning and periodic professional maintenance will keep them shining for years. Store them safely and avoid exposure to harsh chemicals. Explore our Jewellery Care page for more information.
