Custom Made Jewelry
Custom Designer Pieces
Want something that is uniquely made for you? Or, perhaps you want a designer piece made from a stone or beads you already own?
Please contact me as I would be more than happy to craft something just for you to suit your unique style. I've also had many come to me with an idea for a friend's gift including matching friendship bracelets or earrings.
If you have materials but aren't sure what you want to do with them have a look on Pinterest. You'll be amazed at what can be done.
Timing Is Critical
If you are ordering a gift for a specific occasion, please allow enough time to complete your request. The correct supplies for the design must be sourced. This is done after the initial design agreement. I will weave, test and finalize measurements so everything is 'spot on'.
Unless, the piece is in stock, the creation process could take up to 8 weeks depending on supplies required. For multiple items or complex designs, I would prefer a good amount of lead time for design fit & finish. Pieces that have semi-precious stones, fresh water pearls, or sterling silver supplies, may also require more time ordering. Please inquire before ordering.
Remodelling Your Jewelry
I can redesign any costume jewelry item with materials that you will agree to or with like materials already present in the design.
All restrung pieces are guaranteed for life to withstand normal wear and tear. So, for example, if you accidentally catch your restrung necklace or bracelet on something sharp, that would not be covered.
Restringing (not including knotting) starts at $45 for a 16 inch strand plus cost of supplies including missing beads, rings, clasp, etc.
For fine jewelry with gemstones, or metal jewelry requiring solder, please visitor your nearest jeweler.
Contact me to arrange delivery and pick-up of your piece for restring or redesign.
KNOTTING OR REKNOTTING
(Pearls, Semi-Precious Stones or Other Beads)
Two good reasons for knotting fine stones and pearls:
1) Prevents loss of pearls if the piece breaks
2) Prevents beads (especially pearls) from rubbing against each other creating surface scratches
Knotting starts at $65 for a 16" strand with pearls 8mm in diameter or larger with normal sized holes. If your pearls are smaller or you have a longer strand, please request a quote.
I use high quality silk (normally in white unless you want dark knots) for beads with normal to small holes. For beads with larger holes I will work with you to find your preferred stringing material.
