FAQ's
How long do bespoke pieces take?
The turn around time varies from 6 weeks up to 12 weeks depending on the individual piece.
Sometimes they can be done Quicker.
This is all dependant on, the design of the piece, whatever the style is, the processes involved and whether or not we have to source gemstones.
What processes do you use?
Again this depends on the individual Piece, Sometimes the pieces are hand fabricated, and other time we use CAD(Computer Aided Design) and Lost wax casting. Cad can sometimes be a lot more cost effective.
How much on average do people spend on Bespoke pieces?
Bespoke work starts at approx €1000 for solid gold pieces, The price varies, depending on the design, chosen metal and gemstones. Whilst I make it a priority to accommodate your budget, If you have a specific amount in mind, it’s important to let me know this at the beginning. This will influence various factors, including the choice of metal carat and gemstone type.
Can I reuse old Jewellery to make the new piece?
In short, yes, but there are many factors involved in reusing old pieces, Some metals cannot be reused, while others can be reused quite easily. Remodel prices start at @€500-€800 as they are very labour intensive.
Please note, reusing old pieces and metal does not necessarily save money as there are many processes involved to make that metal reusable and there is also more labour involved. It is only advisable if the pieces are highly sentimental.
Do you require Payment up front?
After an initial consultation, I require a 50% deposit before physical work commences. The balance is payable on Completion.
Deposits for bespoke work are non refundable once the work starts.
