  • On custom pieces I can do some alterations and sizing but custom and commission pieces are nonrefundable.

• How does custom design work?

  • Start the process by emailing me or submitting a custom design form and I will get in touch with you within 24 hours.  We can discuss designs and prices via email or phone and I can also schedule to meet you at my private office in Portsmouth NH.  I will give you 1-3 design options and price quotes.  I ask for a deposit and will start making your custom jewelry.  My custom design jewelry production takes from 2-6 weeks and I can ship it to you, or you can pick up your piece in my office.  

• Which types of metals do you work with?

  • I fabricate my jewelry in 18k yellow, pink, or green gold.  I also work in Platinum and Sterling Silver.  Regular 18k white gold is very difficult to hand fabricate with.  As an alternative I use either 18k palladium white gold which is a little darker or platinum.  Sterling silver is nice as a less expensive alternative.  I do not work in 14k gold.
