West Seattle Vintage Estate Jewelry Collection

Designing jewelry is influenced by market expectations, current trends, and the latest styles. As a response to traditional fashion concepts, the trend of custom-made jewelry has gained significant traction. Jewelry is becoming more and more personal and special – unique in its own way. 

The purpose of custom jewelry isn't just to reflect the individual personality of the customer; we want to create a piece of jewelry that hasn't been done before. As a result, our jewelry designers are constantly pushing their boundaries, discovering new concepts and innovations to take the art of jewelry to new heights. Jewelry as an art form is undergoing an extraordinary transformation as a result of the trend toward custom jewelry design. 

The best choice is custom-made jewelry if you know the exact thing you want for that specific someone, but don't see it on the market. That ideal piece of art can sometimes seem impossible to find. By working closely with an experienced jeweler, it is possible to incorporate your designs into one final product. You can create the piece you have always envisioned. Creating original, never-before-seen jewelry pieces is a challenge, requiring designers to constantly stretch the boundaries of design to create extraordinary, first-of-its-kind jewelry pieces. 

Any custom-made piece is exclusively designed for the person who will wear it. No matter what style a wearer prefers, custom jewelry can reflect their individuality and provide uniqueness. Our experts can repurpose precious metals and gemstones from your old jewelry, which you no longer wear, into your new piece of jewelry as a way to add sentimental value. One more benefit of having custom-made jewelry is that you can make it affordable by choosing the design of your choice and making it by using yellow gold, rose gold, white gold, platinum, or any other metal of your choice. The personalization options are limitless when you choose custom-made jewelry.

We begin the process of making custom-made jewelry by consulting with our customers about their styles, designs, and other preferences. 

For you to receive the product you desire there are several considerations to take into account:

• Consider jewelry types like rings, necklaces, earrings, etc, general shapes like button or cluster earrings, or round or rectangular pendants.
• It is important to take into account the type of metal the wearer prefers, such as platinum, gold, silver, and titanium. Or simply follow the same style the recipient already wears to ensure he or she will like your gift.
• You should also determine the gemstones you would like to incorporate into your jewelry to give it a final touch. 
• Followed by designs and sketches which you will be selecting from. After you have selected the design, we offer the option of using the type of material or stones that can fit your budget. Once the design is approved by you, we will work together with our bench jeweler  to acquire materials and create your jewelry piece by hand.

It is important to communicate what you want to your designer so that your vision becomes a reality.
