How to commission a bespoke piece of jewellery

Bespoke Engagement ring sketch

Hi and welcome to Nude Jewellery, my name is Nikki Galloway and I have been designing and creating unique engagement rings for over 20 years. I love to create designs that are a little bit different, designs that represent you.
If you are unsure of the exact design you would like we can talk you through some ideas and show you examples of previous work that has been custom-made. You can contact us by email where we can organise a meeting and I can show you samples of some of our exclusive designs, we can also bring along gemstones or diamonds for you to look at and choose from. If you are unable to meet in person we can send you videos of finished pieces and gemstones This initial consultation is a chance for you to get to know us and tell us what you are looking for. We work using traditional methods alongside modern techniques and design process including CAD imaging and 3d printing.

Hand Drawn Sketches

We can create sketches for you during a meeting and work on the bespoke jewellery design together. We can also work through your design ideas through email, or you can call us and discuss it over the phone. We communicate with you on every aspect of the bespoke jewellery process and you can have as much input as you wish from the initial consultation through to gemstone selection. We want you to be involved in creating an individual, unique jewellery piece to suit your needs and budget.

Computer Imaging

For some of the more complex designs the next stage would be to create computer images. Designed in 3D, you will have the ability to view the piece from all angles and it will give you a clear idea of what it will look like. It is easy to email this image to you for approval and any changes that you would like to make can be applied to the design and then sent back to you until you are completely satisfied. Once we have completed this stage the ring is sent to be 3d printed and then cast in your chosen precious metal. We can also have a model of the ring 3d printed in resin for a small charge for you to view before the final processes.

The Finished Piece

Once the design has been finalised the hard work can really begin. Your bespoke engagement ring will have any gemstones or diamonds set, the piece will then be polished and hallmarked before being beautifully presented in a bespoke Nude Jewellery ring box. All our jewellery at Nude Jewellery is handmade by craftsmanship of the highest standards. As ever you can be assured that all diamonds sold at Nude are conflict free and will always be so.
