FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

"Can I commission a unique piece of jewellery to my own specific requirements?"

Yes! I will work with you through every step of the process to make sure you have all the elements you are looking for and to make it as special as possible.
"If I commission a piece of jewellery, will my design be made replicated?"

NO! If you have commissioned me to create a unique piece that is personal to you, the design will not be replicated or reproduced. Your unique design will be the only one. That's what makes it so special.
"Can I have my own stones in my design?"

YES! I am more than happy to work with any stones you have - either those you have purchased, or that have a significant or sentimental value to you. However, there will be a small settings charge.
"Can I change any stones in an existing design I have seen to different ones?"

Yes! All my designs can be made with any stone(s) of your choice. However, prices may differ depending on the choices discussed, but I will always give you a price of each stone before the design is taken to the bench.
"Can any design be made in a different material?"

Absolutely. All my designs are available to be made in silver, white gold, rose gold or yellow gold. Prices will reflect in the material choices.
"How long does a commissioned piece take to make?"

The time frame will depend on the content, stones, overall design, design process and work load. Times will vary but I will always give you a rough idea of the turn around.
