The process begins with a private consultation, where we meet with you to discuss your vision, preferences, and any specific details you want incorporated into the piece including stone selection. This may include the type of jewelry (e.g., ring, necklace, bracelet), the occasion (e.g., engagement, anniversary, personal), the style (vintage, modern, minimalist, etc.), and any sentimental elements (family heirlooms, favorite gemstones).

Based on the consultation, we will create an initial design or digital CAD rendering within 24-48 hours. You will be presented with these concepts to review. This allows both the client and designer to visualize the final product before moving on to the next step. The 3D model also helps in determining the right proportions and ensuring that all components fit together perfectly. During this stage, timely and concise feedback is crucial as adjustments can be made to elements such as the shape, metal choice, gemstone selection, and overall design details. 

After final client approval of the design, the jewelry moves into the production phase. Skilled, American artisans craft the piece according to the 3D model using the chosen materials. This stage involves the intricate work of casting, soldering, setting gemstones, polishing, and any other finishing touches.

Once the jewelry piece is completed, it undergoes a thorough quality control check by Golden Hour Jewelers. This ensures that all aspects of the design meet the client’s specifications and standards. Any minor adjustments or enhancements are made at this stage.

From the time of client approved design, delivery time is 3-4 weeks.
