CUSTOM JEWELRY
Conceived in Conversation. Realized in Metal and Stone.
Every custom piece begins with a private consultation, where ideas become sketches, and sketches become heirlooms.
Whether you're creating an engagement ring, reimagining a cherished family heirloom, or celebrating life's milestones, every piece is handcrafted with uncompromising attention to detail and five decades of family craftsmanship.
Custom Jewelry Design
A Piece No One Else in the World Owns
Your custom piece begins the moment you share your vision with us. Whether you arrive with a complete concept, a sketch, an inspiration image, or simply a feeling, we will guide every step of the process.
The result is wholly yours. Not a catalogue choice or a modified template — a reflection of your relationship, your style, and the occasion that called for it. These are the pieces our future generations will cherish.
1. Discovery Conversation: Begin with a private consultation where we'll discuss your vision, inspiration, timeline, and investment.
2. Design & Stone Selection: We present design directions and source stones matching your criteria.
3. Craftsmanship & Delivery: Your piece is handcrafted with precision, care, and more than five decades of family craftsmanship.
HEIRLOOM RESTORATION
The Pieces That Carry the Most Meaning Deserve the Most Care
An heirloom ring passed from grandmother to granddaughter. A wedding band worn for forty years that needs to look its best for forty more. These are not transactions — they are responsibilities. We treat every restoration as though the piece is irreplaceable, because to you, it is.
Our restoration and care services include prong re-tipping and resetting, band resizing, surface refinishing and polishing, stone replacement and matching, and full cleaning and inspection. We also offer ongoing care partnerships for clients who want their pieces examined and maintained annually.
Bring us the ring your mother wore on her wedding day. We will return it to you looking exactly as it should — and make sure it is strong enough to be worn for another generation.
Estate & Private Acquisition
Exceptional Pieces, Sourced Outside the Ordinary
Some of the finest diamonds and gemstones never appear in a showroom window. They pass quietly between estates, private collections, and specialist traders — and finding them requires both deep expertise and the right relationships. Roger and Ian have spent fifty years building both.
Whether you are seeking to acquire an exceptional stone, evaluate and authenticate a piece from an estate, or sell a significant item discreetly and at fair value, we provide the gemological knowledge and private-market access to act as your trusted advisor throughout the process.
Estate and private acquisition engagements are handled entirely in confidence. Every evaluation is independent. Every recommendation serves your interests alone.

FAQs
What to Expect Working With Us
Do I need to know exactly what I want before my first appointment?
Not at all. Many of our clients arrive with a feeling rather than a finished concept — a mood, a reference image, or simply a sense of the occasion and the person. Our team of jewelers are experienced at listening carefully and translating that into design directions you can respond to. The first conversation is exploratory, not transactional.
How long does a custom piece take from start to finish?
Most custom projects are completed in four to eight weeks from the point of design approval and stone selection. Timelines vary based on complexity, stone sourcing, and setting requirements. We discuss expected timelines at your first appointment and keep you informed at each stage.
How is pricing determined for a custom piece?
Pricing reflects the cost of materials — stones, metal, and any specialized components — plus the craft and time required to execute the design. We discuss budget openly during your consultation and work within it. There is no pressure to exceed your range, and we will always present options at multiple price points when they exist.
Is a private jeweler right for me if I have never worked with one before?
Most of our clients came to us for the first time as referrals from family or close friends. The experience differs from a retail jeweler in one important way: you work directly with the jeweler, not a sales associate. The conversation is personal, unhurried, and entirely focused on what you want to create. There is no sales floor, no commission pressure, and no substitute for that direct relationship.
Can you restore or repair a piece you did not originally create?
Yes. We restore and care for pieces from any origin — estate pieces, family heirlooms, and work from other jewelers. Every restoration begins with a careful evaluation of the piece's condition, construction, and history. We will give you an honest assessment of what is possible and what the work entails before any restoration begins.Yes.
