Do you offer custom jewellery design services?
Do you offer custom jewellery design services?
I currently don’t take on custom work, which I know can be disappointing. I channel my creativity and passion into original designs that celebrate self-expression. By focusing on my own creations, I maintain the highest standards of craftsmanship and artistry. Although I don't offer custom design services, my pieces are made for individuals and designed to empower people while suiting various styles and preferences.
Can I customise an existing design?
Can I customise an existing design?
I currently don’t offer customisation of existing designs. Each piece is carefully crafted to be and function as it is intended. Making adjustments, even those that seem simple, can often be complex and time-consuming. I understand the desire for unique, one-off pieces; however, my focus is on creating designs that reflect my artistic vision and aesthetic. As a result, I am unable to commit to custom designs or edits.
