Lets make a custom piece together
1- Send me initial details
Get in touch! Send me basic details and we start a conversation on your idea. We can speak or write, exchange a few reference photos and so on.
2 - We exchange ideas and formalise the order
Once the basics are clear, we pin down details: Is it going to be a ring, pendant, earrings or a small sculpture? What do we think will work best - a close up portrait or full body sculpt. Narrowing down the options gives me an idea where to start my sculpting. At this point I will ask for a deposit.
3 - I do the sculpting
I start sculpting on an idea based on the decisions we have made. Depending on the complexity, I need approximately a week for sculpting
4 - We review and make final adjustments
Once I have a sculpt that I think works and fits with your vision, I'll show you photos and you will be welcome to make some comments or suggestions. Then a final few days of cleaning up on my side, and it will be ready to move onto the production process
5. I complete the manufacturing
Cast in brass, bronze or silver, I oversee the complete process.
At this point I involve a highly reputable foundry to cast the piece. This will take between 4 and 6 weeks, depending on their availability at the time.
6. The piece is carefully packed and sent
With the piece polished, chain attached to pendants etc, it's time to package and send your really special, one of a kind piece of jewellery.
