Custom Designed Jewelry

Is your jewelry box full of out-of-date or broken jewelry?
Is the family heirloom your grandmother cherished
not quite your style?
Whatever your dilemma, we can design
something you will actually wear,
keeping the original gemstones or metal
or just the concept of the piece by re-creating it from scratch.

Below are a few of our Custom Designs,
showing the Before and After photos and a brief description.

Bring in your ideas or a sketch
along with your jewelry piece
and we will create something beautiful
Just For You!

the bail was wearing through, then a clean
and polish to finish. What a beautiful set!
