And so the story begins
Process
Using the best designers and craftsmen and the finest diamonds and gems, coupled with her passion for perfection, Sophie will guide you through the journey to creating your personal work of art.
Discover
Knowing where to start can be daunting, but by booking your courtesy bespoke fact-finding design meeting with Sophie, she can guide you through gems, metals, designs, budgets and timelines. In this meeting, either virtually or in person, you can show Sophie examples and inspiration of the kind of designs you like.
Design
If you can’t quite pin down what it is you’re wanting, Sophie will show you a mood board with a variety of ideas based on what she has learnt from you. Listening and understanding is key to guiding clients through this crucial stage. Things then progress to the studio where our talented team use CAD to bring the initial thoughts to life and create your own unique works of art. Sophie will then review the designs with you and make any tweaks where necessary. Once agreed, the design can be 3D printed for a physical visualisation of the jewellery where requested.
Gem Selection
Once a design and style are agreed upon, sourcing the perfect diamonds and coloured gems are next and Sophie will invite you to view a selection of stones ideal for your bespoke design. She will talk you through the different options and guide you to finding the right gemstones for you.
Finding the perfect gemstones that are right for your piece can take time, so this part of the story can take a few weeks.
Workshop
Now the design is signed off, it’s off to the workshop where your jewellery is carefully crafted by our superior goldsmiths. Sophie oversees the process and the journey for the piece to be hallmarked.
Every piece of jewellery that is sold as gold, platinum, silver, or palladium needs to be hallmarked at one of the Assay offices. It’s an important part of the journey and an assurance of the quality of your jewellery.
Handover
Once the jewellery is out of the workshop, Sophie thoroughly examines each piece to make sure it’s perfect. If you have requested a valuation for insurance purposes, it's at this stage Sophie will get that finalised.
Your finished bespoke jewellery is then delivered to you, for the story to continue.
