Design
Reference images can communicate direction, but define what should be original or changed rather than requesting an undisclosed copy.
Specify the piece
before the quote.
A precise custom-jewelry request reduces misunderstandings. Define the object before comparing prices.
Dimensions
Specify ring size, chain length and width, pendant dimensions, bracelet length or other relevant measurements.
Metal
State gold karat and color, platinum or another intended metal, plus solid/hollow construction where relevant.
Stones
State natural or laboratory-grown, stone type, shape, approximate sizes or carat weights, quality targets and grading-report requirements for major stones.
Budget
A realistic target range helps determine which combinations of materials, stones and construction are feasible.
Documentation
Agree on what will be supplied: invoice, metal description, stone disclosures, grading reports for applicable stones and care/warranty terms.
