Custom Order Consultation & Design Retainer

Every custom piece starts here.

The retainer secures your place in my design schedule and covers our initial consultation. I’ll contact you within one business day to set up a meeting - in person if you’re local to Door County, or by video chat or phone if you’re not.

During the consultation, I’ll review your ideas, discuss metals and gemstone options, and make sure the piece you’re imagining is something I can build to the standard you’re paying for. I’ll be direct about what’s possible, what it will cost, and how long it will take.

When you’re ready, add the retainer to your cart. I’ll be in touch within one business day.

Add panel content here.Custom silver work starts at $1,500. Custom gold work starts at $3,000. Final pricing depends on metal type, gemstones, and design complexity. I’ll provide a detailed quote after our consultation.
The $500 retainer applies toward your final project cost. If the consultation reveals that the project isn’t the right fit - for either of us - the retainer is refunded in full.

Design consultation (in person, Zoom, or phone). Collaborative design development until the piece is right. All materials and fabrication. Craftsmanship warranty and complimentary yearly refinishing. Piece documentation for insurance and estate records.

If you have any design ideas (images are super helpful) it would be helpful to send them via email before our meeting (Pinterest boards also work great too!)

Your lifestyle (what your line of work is, if you work with your hands for hobbies,etc.) is also helpful to know when suggesting stones or metals for longevity reasons.

Knowing your budget (rough or exact is fine) is helpful for determining what designs,metals,and stones can be used in your custom piece.

After the consultation, I’ll send you a timeline and a detailed quote. Throughout the process, I’ll send progress photos so you can see the piece come to life. Custom work is a collaboration ~ I want you to be part of the making, not just the receiving.
