Custom Orders

I would love to make you a custom piece!

Often times, I have a piece that is in stock, and a customer would prefer it in a different color, scale, or without gemstones, etc. Here is an example of a piece that I recently began working on for a client: They really liked my Lava Flow Necklace, but it was beyond their budget. I was happy to design and make a modified piece base on this request…

I begin by sketching out the piece and communicate as often or as long as necessary to get the specs and scale perfect. Halfway through, I contacted the customer to decide between having the piece as a pendant, which would be on the lower end of their budget, or with chain, which might bring the project over budget.

Option B: To add chain.

Option A: Pendant

In another example, My customer liked one element of the original piece, and wanted a simpler necklace with that element:

A customer wanted a pair of rain cloud earrings similar to a pendant she had preciously purchased from me…we started the process on a zoom call to discuss the logistics of the design. The I then did some sketches, and we discussed it further. I did a final sereies of designs, and one was chosen:

This customer saw a pendant on my website and wanted it to be customized as a gift to his wife for their anniversary.

I did some mock-ups of some design possibilities based on the client's concept.

The finished commission.

I was commissioned by a client to make a set of pieces for his wife and son who were to be Bar/Bat Mitzva’d together. The wave artwork was very symbolic for them as a family, and he asked me if I could incorporate some wood elements to the design of the pendant. I started with some rough sketched, which he agreed to, then I carved a sample batch of waves for my client to choose from (I always carve more pieces than I need for commissions for 2 reasons…I like to give my clients a choice, but also if I somehow break the glass piece, I have a ready backup.

I went back and forth with my client many times to come uo with a design he was happy with. In the end, he decided he wanted to add a sprinkling of diamonds to mimick the sea spray in the original inspiration image. I created 18k gold settings for the diamonds, and incorporated them into the piece.

He also had me make a coordinating leather bracelet for the very special Bar Mitzvah Boy.
