EXCHANGE & PROJECT DESIGN

By email via the form at the bottom of this page, an initial exchange allows us to define your project: type of jewel, style, inspirations, stones, budget and deadlines. This first step allows us to lay the foundations of your project and to define its main lines.

One or more sketches/3D models are then proposed, accompanied by a quote. Once validated, the piece of jewelry goes into production. The manufacturing time varies between 2 and 6 weeks depending on the complexity of the project and the workshop's order book. (As each piece of jewelry is entirely custom-made, some raw materials must be specially ordered for your creation. A delay of about one week is therefore necessary before its manufacturing begins).

The workshop works mainly with precious metals: 750/1000 gold (18 carats), 925 silver (sterling silver) and vermeil (sterling silver coated with 18-carat gold, gilded finish), to bring all types of custom-made jewelry to life. Durable: the gold and silver used comply with French legal standards and come, as much as possible, from responsible supply chains. (Learn more: 925 Silver, Gold, Vermeil). Precious and semi-precious stones are selected according to your project, your preferences, your budget, and supplier availability.

Payment is made in full or by a 60% deposit, which confirms the project's production, (the remaining balance must be paid before the jewelry is sent). Are you wondering how much a custom-made piece of jewelry costs? Find the answer in the FAQ available at the bottom of the page.
Upon request, you can follow the creation of your jewelry through photos/videos of the different manufacturing steps, to discover its evolution step by step until the final piece is revealed, on D-day, in your hands.

Give your jewelry a second life

An earring whose pair has been lost, a ring that has become too old for your taste, or a family jewel showing the signs of time?

It is entirely possible to reuse the precious stones and metals from your jewelry to give them new life. They then become the starting point for a unique creation – a way to preserve their history and sentimental value.

Shipping arrangements will be communicated to you to ensure transportation is as secure as possible. Upon receipt, each piece is inspected to verify the nature of the materials, their alloy, and their purity. The jewelry is then cleaned if necessary, and then weighed on a certified scale (with photo proof). Once the materials are identified, a proposal for transformation or repurchase can be presented to you as part of your project.

FAQ

The jewelry is made of:

925 sterling silver (92.5% purity)

Vermeil (Solid silver plated with 18-carat gold, gold finish)

750/1000 (18 carat) gold, rose, white or yellow (on order.)

(Learn more about metals and their properties)

The exact weight of each creation is indicated on the certificate of authenticity included with your order.

The French guarantee: official hallmarks and master's mark:

In France:

silver jewelry weighing more than 30 g is subject to official control and receives the hallmark, the Minerva head, attesting to the purity and quality of the metal.

Gold jewelry weighing more than 3 g receives the hallmark, the Eagle's Head, an official symbol validated by French customs.

Before your jewelry is sent, a mandatory check by French customs may be required depending on its weight and material. This check incurs additional costs including shipping to customs, return to the workshop, repolishing after application of the hallmark (Minerva Head or Eagle's Head), then final shipping to the address indicated on the quote.

These costs vary, and a flat rate is applied to cover these shipments, indicated on one of the last lines of the quote.

Each piece bears the master's mark, a guarantee of authenticity and quality.(Learn more →)

The price of a custom piece depends on several factors:

The chosen metal and the price of precious metals at the time of order, dimensions, weight, selected stones (quality, rarity, origin), manufacturing technique and time, complexity of the project, as well as the cost of materials and components required for its creation.

Some services may require the involvement of specialized partners (vermeil gilding, lost wax casting...), so subcontracting costs may also be included in the final price.

Here are some guidelines to help you:

Solid Silver Jewelry:

Small projects
From €85 incl. VAT. (Piercing, very thin ring or other small creation, without stone to set).

For rings, pendants, necklaces, sautoirs, bracelets, and earrings entirely handmade in solid metal in the workshop:
From €150 to €450 incl. VAT. This price generally includes: Light engravings and textures, simple symbols, artisanal modeling, 1 to 3 main elements, Any type of setting. For more complex requests or projects requiring special study, 3D modeling can be offered on a case-by-case basis.

For rings, signet rings, and creations requiring more complex work, wax modeling will be necessary (lost wax casting process):
From €250 to €550 incl. VAT. The model is first hand-sculpted in wax before being cast in metal, then entirely reworked and finished in the workshop. This technique allows for the creation of: complex volumes, detailed reliefs, personalized motifs, unique custom creations. Casting fees, carried out by a specialized provider, are included in your project quote. A preliminary quote is requested from the foundry to establish an accurate estimate.

Forged signet ring (solid)
From €450 incl. VAT. The signet ring is shaped directly from raw metal using traditional jewelry techniques. This method offers: High precision of execution, excellent durability, a piece of jewelry designed to last for years and be passed down. This price includes simple to moderate engraving of the plate as well as some common customizations, including stone setting according to standard configurations. Complex engravings or any specific requests will be subject to an additional quote.

Vermeil Jewelry:

From €190 incl. VAT

Vermeil is an excellent alternative to solid gold for those who wish to enjoy the elegance of gold-plated jewelry while managing their budget.

The jewelry is first handmade in 925 solid silver in the workshop, then covered with an 18-carat gold layer with a minimum thickness of 5 microns, in accordance with French vermeil regulations.

It combines the robustness of solid silver with the warmth and brilliance of gold, while remaining more accessible than a piece of jewelry entirely made of gold. Thanks to its 925 solid silver base, it can also be transformed, repaired, or recycled over time, giving it true durability.

Vermeil is available upon request. The price includes the intervention of a specialized gilding workshop, guaranteeing a quality finish in accordance with vermeil requirements.

18K Gold Jewelry

Pendants / necklaces / bracelets or earrings: from €760 incl. VAT

Sautoirs: from €1,000 incl. VAT

The more qualitative, rare, or specific (colors, size, origin) the selected stones are, the more their value can influence the final price of the project.

3D modeling is offered on a case-by-case basis.

The indicated price may vary depending on the rise or fall in metal prices on the day the quote is established.

Do you own antique (or modern) jewelry, gold, silver, gemstones, or pearls that you wish to transform?

If the materials you provide are sufficient to fully create your future piece of jewelry, only the manufacturing cost will be charged.

Custom creation rates:

• Sterling Silver (925): starting from €150

• Gold: starting from €600

If the precious metals provided are not sufficient for the desired project, we may consider purchasing your materials, subject to their nature, condition, and weight. The assessed value can then be deducted from the cost of additional materials needed to create your jewelry. This valuation considers material loss and technical costs inherent in the transformation, melting, refining, and manufacturing operations specific to the jeweler's craft.

Jewelry entrusted remains your responsibility until it arrives at the workshop. Shipping details will be provided to ensure the safest possible transport. Upon receipt, each piece is inspected to verify the nature of the materials, their alloy, and their fineness. The jewelry is then cleaned if necessary, and then weighed on a certified scale (with photo proof). Once the materials are identified, a proposal for transformation or purchase can be presented to you as part of your project.

The specific terms applicable to your project will be detailed in the personalized quote sent to you. I also invite you to consult the General Terms and Conditions of Sale (GTC), available here: [link to GTC].
