Custom Jewelry

Have you seen something in the shop that you like, but want to change the stone? Or maybe you have a totally new idea you’d like to bring to life? I’d love to chat more about a semi-custom or fully custom design.

Customizations

Customizations are simple updates to designs that are already in the shop, like using a different metal, swapping out the kind of stone, or adding an engraving. I can do this in silver and gold, and prices will vary depending on the changes you’d like to make.

Adding more stones, changing stone shapes or sizes, or altering the shape of the piece would make the design fall under the “fully custom” category.

Do you have a piece in mind that you’d like to customize? Email sara@saragolden.com, we’d love to chat more about it!

Fully Custom Jewelry

For fully custom jewelry, I’ll update an existing design to meet your specifications or create a totally new piece.

These projects usually involve much more discussion, preparation, and time for development as they’re built from scratch just for you. We’ll discuss what you’re looking for, who it’s for, and any ideas you already have.

I start with a Design Exploration Phase: I sketch several design options based on what we’ve discussed together, and include estimates for each design.

Once a design has been approved I’ll start creating it for you, sending progress updates along the way. Carving, casting, and fabrication usually take between 8-10 weeks once a design has been chosen.

Please note that these projects generally start at $5000, and there is a non-refundable $300 fee for the Design Exploration Phase. If you decide to go ahead with one of the designs from the Design Exploration Phase, I’ll apply that fee to the final cost.
