Custom Jewelry
CUSTOM ORDERS
All custom orders are done in our style. We do not accept orders that copy another jeweler's style.
Frequently asked Questions:
How much do custom orders typically cost?
Typically, most custom orders range in price from the mid $300's to mid $600's. These prices could be lower or higher depending on design and material. If you have a budget, please let us know so we can determine if your order can be done within your price range.
Is there a charge for designing?
1) We charge $40 for sketch work before we begin your piece. This cost is non-refundable and is not included in the final cost of your piece. Michele will provide you 2-4 sketches, including rough cost estimates for each. Custom pieces are personal, so they will not be made again.
2) The sketch fee also applies to designs that may be inspired by other custom pieces you have seen on our sites. You may want to incorporate some ideas from those pieces to help create your own one-of-a-kind piece.
3) We do not charge a sketch fee if you want us to reproduce a non-custom piece you have seen on our Facebook or Instagram sites. We typically create those design no more than three times to make time for new pieces to be born! Each piece is made by hand so each will have minor variations.
How long will it take?
Orders take 6-10 weeks (or more during festival seasons). We may need to put your order on a wait list if we have a high number of special orders and festivals.
**We are currently experiencing a high quantity of special orders... completion dates are further out than our normal time.
What do I need to do to get started?
Email us with this information in mind:
1) Your budget! This is important so that we can let you know if your design is possible or if modifications need to made.
2) Your "story" and images you think might help tell it. We encourage you to look through our Facebook or Instagram pages for inspiration, so we know where your heart leans.
3) Some things to consider if you have strong preferences:
-The shape of your piece (i.e. Heart, water drop, organic, square)
-The size of your piece
-Imagery (i.e. trees, animals, landscape, night, sun)
-Mixed metal preferences? (Silver, gold, bronze, copper)
-For "box" type pieces-do you have a texture preference on the rim?
5) If you would like something written on the back and let us know ahead of time there will be no charge.
4) If you are ordering a pendant, decide if you prefer a 16"- or 18"-chain. (The final price will include a chain of either length). Longer lengths or extenders are available for an upcharge.
6) We often share our custom creations on FB or Instagram. If you would prefer your piece not be shared, please indicate this to us!
