Here’s a quick run down on some of the things you’ll learn
In this comprehensive guide we’ll walk you through:
The advantages of custom designed and handmade jewellery
- In many respects, there’s a lot more “work” involved in designing and having a bespoke piece of jewellery made – especially a piece as important as an engagement ring. We’ll help you understand whether it really is the best way forward for you.
The 7 key design considerations you need to take into account:
- How much you have to spend – understanding how much things cost so you can set a realistic budget;
- Your partner’s taste and style. This is probably the trickiest part of the whole process – figuring out what your partner will love;
- Your partner’s hands – an often over-looked design consideration. The ring needs to suit your partner’s hands and fingers;
- Occupation and Interests – we want to be sure the ring you have made for your partner will be easy to live with;
- Design considerations when pairing rings together;
- Allergies and skin reactions – the right metal choice and ring design can make all the difference between something being a pleasure to wear, or a pain; and
- Allowing enough time – designing and hand making an engagement ring is not a quick process. Here we’ll make sure you don’t cut it too fine.
Making new from old:
- In this section we explore the option of recycling old jewellery to make new pieces. Is it worth it? And if so, how it’s done and what your expectations should be. (We understand too that sometimes it’s all about the sentiment.)
Getting the size right
- Very often the rings we make are going to be a surprise. We’ll help you get the size right, without giving away your intentions.
