OUR DESIGN PROCESS

When we are selecting rough material to transform into pendants and necklaces, we are focused on unique and exquisite stones.

Select a rough stone

Weigh and measure the raw stone

Decipher the shape and cutting directions to ensure maximum finish and luster

Create mechanical design instructions for cutting and drilling

Choose an accent stone or special design elements

Create wax model design

Cast precious metal through the ancient wax carving process

Hand polish and finish metal components

Hand-set accent stones or hand engrave metal designs or textures

Select and create a chain: texture, shape, and metal color, to complement the finished piece
