How We Build Your Custom Jewellery
Step 1: Booking
While appointments aren’t required, the best way to start your custom jewellery journey is to book an appointment. That way, when you arrive at JK Schmidt Jewellers, we’re ready to learn more about your design ideas, budget and timeline.
How much does it cost to design custom jewellery?
Every custom jewellery creation is different. Because no two custom projects will ever be the same, there is no fixed price for this service. The labour hours, details, and quality and quantity of materials used determine the cost. Just let us know what you would like, and we’ll start with A FREE QUOTE.
Step 2: Designing
During your appointment, we’ll tour the showroom together. We have countless designs and brands sure to help inspire your design. Together, we’ll learn what pieces you like, and more importantly, why you like them. This is also the time to bring in any diamonds, gold, gemstones or heirloom pieces you would like to incorporate into your new design.
What if I can’t find anything that’s just right?
Don’t worry—that’s exactly why we offer custom jewellery. We’ll work together to learn your aesthetic preferences and design something that is just right. And you’ll be working with us every step of the way so you can trust that you’ll receive your love-at-first-sight piece.
Step 3: Sketching
Now that we have an idea of what you’re looking for, our design specialists will turn a rough pencil sketch into a three-dimensional CAD image for you to approve. We take special care to ensure the designs we share are not only within your budget but built to last a lifetime.
What if I don’t like the design?
That’s OK. Please be open and honest—you won’t hurt our feelings. We’ll work together to put your thoughts on paper and in metal. Please keep in mind that CAD images can look bulkier and less organic than the final design.
Step 4: Creating
You love the design and can’t wait to see it on your finger or around your neck. Now that the design has been approved, our goldsmiths will get to work on casting your one-of-a-kind design into a wearable piece of art. Once the cast is complete, your gems are set and the details are added.
Can I recycle old gold to use in my new design?
We don’t recommend reusing old gold. When gold is reworked, it becomes brittle and pitted. This can lead to impurities that detract from the beauty of your design. However, we are happy to take your old gold to use as credit for your new design.
