Creating a piece of custom jewelry is an exciting journey. Many people wonder how custom jewelry is made and what to expect from start to finish. At Pel & Co., we make the process simple, transparent, and collaborative. Here’s a detailed look at our custom jewelry process and the steps involved in turning your vision into a sparkling reality.

Step 1: Consultation and Inspiration
Every custom piece begins with a conversation. We want to understand your story, style preferences, and vision for your jewelry. During this step, we discuss:
-
Your desired gemstone and metal
-
Ring or jewelry style (classic, modern, vintage-inspired, or unique)
-
Budget and timeline
This consultation ensures we capture your vision accurately and sets the foundation for a meaningful piece.
Step 2: Design Concept
Once we understand your vision, our team creates initial sketches or CAD designs. This stage allows you to:
-
Visualize your jewelry before production
-
Suggest adjustments to the design
-
Explore different styles, settings, and gemstone placements
These custom jewelry design steps ensure your piece is tailored to your taste before moving forward.
Step 3: Material Selection
Choosing the right materials is crucial. We help you select:
-
Gemstones: diamonds, sapphires, rubies, Alexandrite, Paraiba tourmaline, and more
-
Metal: platinum, gold, or palladium
-
Finishes and detailing
Our goal is to combine beauty with durability, creating a piece that lasts a lifetime.
Step 4: Crafting and Production
After finalizing the design and materials, our skilled artisans begin crafting your piece. Unlike mass-produced jewelry, every step is done by hand, ensuring precision and care. The process includes:
-
Casting the metal
-
Setting gemstones with exacting attention to detail
-
Polishing and finishing to perfection
Most custom pieces at Pel & Co. are completed within 6–7 business days from design approval.
Step 5: Final Review and Delivery
Before your jewelry leaves our studio, we conduct a final review to ensure every detail matches the approved design. Then, your one-of-a-kind piece is delivered ready to wear and cherish.
This final step guarantees that your custom jewelry not only meets but exceeds your expectations.
