Commissioning a Piece of Jewellery
Commissioning a piece of jewellery is a unique and rewarding experience. Whether you have a clear design in mind, would like to personalise an existing piece, or wish to create something entirely new, Kate will work closely with you to bring your ideas to life.
Each commission is thoughtfully designed and handcrafted, combining your vision with Kate’s distinctive aesthetic, specialist expertise and attention to detail. Whether the piece marks a special occasion, celebrates a milestone, serves as a meaningful gift, or is simply a treat for yourself, the process is tailored to create something truly personal.
Bespoke Design
For those seeking a completely unique piece, Kate offers a fully bespoke design service. Starting with an initial consultation, Kate will discuss your ideas, preferences and requirements, suggesting design options and creative solutions to help shape the final piece. Throughout the process clients can be involved at every stage, receiving updates and images of the piece in progress and opportunities for design refinements until the piece is perfected.
The Process
1. Initial Consultation
The process begins with a discussion about your ideas and requirements. This can take place by email, phone or video call, whichever is most convenient.
2. Design Development
Following the consultation, Kate will prepare design drawings and, where appropriate, material samples to illustrate the proposed piece. Together, you will review the options and agree on the final design.
3. Quotation & Making
Once the design is approved, a quotation and estimated lead time will be provided. Work will begin upon acceptance of the quotation and receipt of a deposit (typically 50%), with the remaining balance payable on completion.
