You will be consulted along the way to ensure you receive exactly what you want, your consultant will also send images, if requested, so that you can track progress and provide any feedback.

Our ultimate objective is to make sure that you are happy with your bespoke piece. We recognise that it can be difficult to visualise how the finished item will look and that some design changes might be required along the way to achieve exactly what you want, or other technical elements may need to be considered and adjusted. For this reason, we allow you to make small changes to the design before any stones are set, without incurring additional costs. There are several types of alterations that are included in our service, such as changing the finger size, changing the profile of the band, reducing the width, etc, however, if the changes are significant or the piece must be remade, you will incur additional charges.

We offer complimentary cleaning and product check-up (recommended every year) as a well-advised pre-emptive measure against the possibility of stone loss or damage that occurs. You can find a comprehensive aftercare guide Here.
