The bespoke commission process

ONE OF A KIND
Here at Untold, aside from my collection, I also offer a bespoke commission service for new and remodelled jewellery.
The process starts off with an initial chat, I also always offer an opportunity to meet in person and view my work if logistically possible. We will then discuss your idea, the timescales and budget; don't worry if your idea is conceptual or just centred around your favourite stone, I have ways of bringing you along in the design journey. It's easier than you think!
I will also give you the choice on how we source the materials i.e traceable, reclaimed and/or FairTrade...but don't worry if you don't have a preference, I will make a judgement call based on the best quality for your budget.
Once we have identified the key aspects of your brief I will develop at least 3 initial rough designs that we will finesse together. The final design and cost will then be signed off by you, and I start the making magic on receipt of the initial payment.
So that's my little process, it's a fun one and at the end of it you'll have a unique piece that nobody else in the world is wearing! Examples of recent commissions can be found here.
Feel free to get in touch for a chat
