Made For You: Bespoke or customization?
What’s the difference between bespoke and customization?
A bespoke piece is a completely original design created exclusively for you. It results in a one-of-a-kind jewel that will never be replicated. This option offers the highest level of creative control, blending your vision with my expertise to craft something truly unique.
Prefer to personalize an existing design? Opt for customization. Here, we adapt one of my signature pieces to your preferences—altering details like materials, stones, or dimensions while maintaining the core design.
Elements to Consider
Metal Alloy
I offer a choice of Sterling Silver, and 14ct or 18ct Gold, either Yellow, White or Rose Gold.
Gemstones
Every gemstone carries profound meaning. Let's work together to select the perfect one for you.
Please note:
- Pricing varies depending on the stone you choose.
- Once you've selected your gemstone, I'll source from my trusted suppliers - this process typically takes 2-3 weeks.
- Some stones are harder to come by, so I'll keep you updated if additional time is needed to find the ideal cut and size.
Design
Bespoke pieces are designed to align with Ura Atelier's distinctive aesthetic.
For inspiration, explore:
- My existing collections as a starting point
- Instagram for recent works and creative processes
This ensures your custom piece feels authentically Ura while being uniquely yours.
Ring Size
Why sizing matters:
Some designs - especially textured or patterned rings - may not resize perfectly. While we'll always do our utmost to adjust your piece, sizing limitations vary by design.
Good to know:
✓- Enlarging a ring (1-3 sizes up) is often easier than reducing it
✓ Wider bands typically require going up 1-2 sizes
Find your perfect fit:
Professional sizing (recommended): Visit a local jeweler for the most accurate measurement.
Here is a small article on how to find your ring size.
For custom orders, we're happy to discuss sizing concerns before crafting your piece.
Budget
Bespoke pieces have a starting price of 200€ for sterling silver and 700€ for gold. This includes a one-of-a-kind piece without gemstones.
The price will be adjusted depending on the design and specifications. You will always receive a pre-order budget estimate - no commitment needed.
Keep in mind bespoke pieces are not meant to be replicated. They are one-of-a-kind pieces made exclusively for you.
THE PROCESS
BOOKING
Once you submit your request, I'll personally contact you within 3 business days. We'll begin with a short questionnaire to understand your vision - feel free to share any inspiration photos or sketches that speak to you.
Our consultation will unfold through email exchanges, or if you prefer, we can arrange a 45-minute Zoom call or in-person meeting (when possible). This helps me ensure your piece captures exactly what you envision.
DESIGN PHASE
Once we finalize your vision, the creative process begins. I'll guide you through every detail - from metal choices to stone selection - ensuring your piece achieves its full potential. You'll receive sketches or wax models to review, with ample time to consider each element.
While most designs take about 4 weeks to develop, I recommend allowing 12 weeks if we're sourcing special gemstones. This extra time lets us perfect every curve and facet of your one-of-a-kind creation.
THE MAKING
To begin crafting your piece, we’ll secure materials with a 50% deposit. You’ll then receive photos or a video of your hand-carved wax model for final approval—only minor tweaks can be made at this stage.
Once cast, I’ll meticulously finish every detail by hand. When your balance is settled, your jewel will be ready to ship or collect, wrapped in the care it deserves.
