Bring pictures and a budget. Most custom jewelers start with a design consultation, then show a sketch or a 3D model before casting. Ask how many revisions are included, whether you can reuse your own gold and stones, and how long the piece takes from approval to pickup.

Good to know

How long does custom jewelry take?

A custom ring commonly takes several weeks from the first consultation: design and a 3D model or wax, your approval, casting, stone setting and finishing. Ask the jeweler for a timeline in writing if you need the piece by a specific date.

Can a jeweler reuse my old gold and stones?

Many custom jewelers can reset your stones in a new design and melt or trade in your old gold. Reusing old gold directly is not always practical because of mixed alloys and old solder, so some jewelers credit its value toward new metal instead.
