Our Custom Jewelry Process

Design Consultation 

The first step in creating your piece is for our jewelry designers to understand what you’re looking for. If you have pictures or a vintage piece of jewelry for inspiration, bring them along. Talking over your ideas with the designer will help incorporate them into your custom jewelry.

If you aren’t sure what you’re looking for, no worries. The Wear Ever Jewelry team can assist with finding your style. With years of experience, our team will also provide recommendations on gemstones and metals based on your budget and if this piece is for a special occasion or everyday wear.

Drawing Review

Your jewelry designer will take everything learned from the consultation and bring it to life during our drawing review process which may include hand sketches and/or CAD renderings. This step is integral in our custom jewelry process to ensure that you are happy with the design. Based on your feedback, modifications will be made to get it just right, and additional drawings may be provided as you finalize details for your perfect piece. 

Jewelry Production

Once the drawing and materials are finalized, our jewelry artists create your handmade custom jewelry. Production may include hand fabrication, casting, stone setting, polishing, and other processes performed by our experienced goldsmiths.
