Draw it first.
Then we make it.

Custom jewelry starts as a pencil line on paper — a shape, a proportion, a stone you already own. Tell us the shape. We'll tell you what's possible, then draw it at full size before anything is cut.

The commission

The drawing comes apart.

A ring is four decisions stacked: the stone, the head that holds it, the shank that carries it, and the size it has to be. We draw them separately, then assemble them on paper before anything is made.

  1. 01

    The shape

    We start with an outline: how wide the band sits, how high the stone rides, where the ring carries its weight. You see it in elevation before anything is cut.

  2. 02

    The specification

    Metal, finish, band profile, stone size, setting height — every choice is written onto the drawing, so nothing is guessed at later.

  3. 03

    The model

    The drawing becomes something you can hold and try on. This is the stage where changes are still simple, so this is where we make them.

  4. 04

    The finished piece

    Set, polished and checked back against the drawing, then handed over. The paper stays with the ring.

Services

The legend.

Six kinds of work come through the door. Each one is logged the same way — a symbol, a plain description, and what happens next.

SymbolRefServiceWhat it covers
C-01

Custom jewelry

Drawn from scratch and made to order — built around your stone, or one we find with you.

E-02

Engagement rings

Proportions worked out on paper first, so the ring sits right on the hand it's made for.

R-03

Repairs

Sizing, re-tipping, chain and clasp work, stone tightening. Drop it off and we'll tell you what it needs.

A-04

Appraisals

A written assessment of what you have, made in front of you at the bench.

W-05

Watch batteries

Battery replacement and resealing, with the case checked before it goes back on.

L-06

Cleaning

A proper clean and a hand polish to bring a piece back to itself.

Custom work and appraisals are by appointment. Repairs, batteries and cleaning can be dropped off — we'll look at the piece and tell you what it needs before anything starts.

The consultation

Come in with a shape in mind.

Bring a sketch, a photograph, a stone from another ring, or just a description. We draw it at full size in front of you, show you the proportions, and talk honestly through metal, stone and what each choice changes.

Nothing is made until the drawing is right. Consultations are by appointment at the Scottsdale studio.

Bring
A napkin sketch, a photo, a loose stone, or an old ring you want reworked.
You leave with
A full-size drawing and a clear next step — the drawing is yours either way.
