How We Do It
Most pieces of jewelry start out as a sketch, a photograph or come from an existing piece of jewelry. Any of these methods are perfectly acceptable. Custom Jewelry Solutions can handle e-mail scans, faxed pictures, sketches, and links to view on the web, and of course reproduce existing jewelry from physical pieces.

Step 1
A jewelry store owner or designer starts out with an idea for stock or a custom design for a customer.

Step 2
The CAD operator draws the item using a CAD program
adhering to customer specified dimensions.

Step 3
The CAD drawing is turned into a rendered 3D model that is now ready for posting to a machining center and customer approval.
