Process & Satisfaction Guarantee


A custom made piece of jewellery is designed and made especially for you. We literally start "from scratch" where your story forms the starting point for the design.

The satisfaction guarantee: thanks to my unique design process, I can guarantee that your piece of jewellery will be completely to your liking! I do everything to realize the jewellery of your dreams. My customers are often more than satisfied, this is what they say about it themselves: read the reviews.   

The custom design process

 

Design consultation & Intake

Week 1, 1 hour

We discuss your wishes and you receive advice on design, materials, styles and options. This conversation takes place in my studio in Nijmegen and is completely non-binding.

The Design Brief

Week 2, document

The following week you will receive the Design Brief with your wishes and starting points for the design. A deposit of 50% is requested

Gemstone Viewing

Week 3-5*, 1 hour

If you want a gemstone in the design, I will look for your perfect gemstone. When I have found some options, you will visit the studio to view the stones in real life and make a choice.

The Design Meeting

Week 3-5, 1 hour, document and prototype

During the design meeting, we discuss the design of the jewel. You get a 3D sketch and details of the design. I will refine the design based on your feedback. If necessary I will make a prototype.

Final Design

Week 6, document

The final design for your jewel is recorded and after approval I will make your jewel in my studio. The manufacturing process is intensive and takes an average of 8 weeks. I use craft techniques along with 3D printing and laser engraving.

Engraving + Inspection by Waarborg

Week 12

When your jewel is almost finished, it will be inspected by the Waarborg Holland. They inspect the metal for content and stamp the master's mark in the jewel.  Also the jewel can be engraved with a personal message.

Your jewel is finished

Week 14, the Jewel

Around week 14 we will make an appointment for you to collect your jewel. You will receive it in a beautiful jewellery box from Lasand. If you need the piece earlier please discuss this with me and I will see what is possible.

 

Take the first step

It is my passion to translate your story into a special piece of jewellery. A jewel that you never want to take off and that you wear with pride. I would like to think along with you and help you design your jewel. I am curious about your story and wishes.
