Engagement and Customs

Engagement and Custom Jewellery takes longer as I need more time to design your piece, hand make it and order specific stones if required. Expect the turn around to be anywhere from 2-4 months at the moment from when the initial 50% deposit is given for the design. Get in contact for expected timelines and if there are any urgent deadlines such as special birthdays or proposals please include those.

When reaching out for customs please include your:

• Budget
• Preferred completion date 
• Materials (eg, 9ct yellow gold, sterling silver or 18ct white gold etc)
• Stone preferences (List some colour's if you are not sure of stone names)
• Include some inspiration pictures taken from my own Instagram portfolio or website and include any other ideas you may have
• If you wish, the story behind the commission. Is it a birthday, milestone, proposal?

I understand you may have some images from other jewellers or from the internet you may want to send through. This is okay for inspiration for shapes of stones or styles of rings to help you explain visually, but please don't ask me to copy another jewellers work. I love making work which comes from my own heart. Reach out to your preferred jeweller if you want a piece from them. 

Due to the cost of materials and design time, gold ring commissions start from $1500,  sterling silver starting from $350
