Custom Design

When Old World Craftsmanship and New Technology Merge...®

The Process

At Besco, we specialize in custom jewelry. It may be the first fine piece of jewelry that you have commissioned, so we try to make the process as interactive as possible. You work directly with the jewelers who are designing and building your jewelry. A clear timeline and budget are developed for each project. In addition we e-mail you photorealistic renderings of the finished piece before we produce it, using this combination of interaction and information we have achieved thousands of successful custom projects.

To begin, we start with a consultation session, either by visiting at the office, by appointment or through our website. We collaborate to sketch out your ideas, working from examples in style and stones, while adding technical expertise to render a design of your finished piece. After a rough sketch has been drafted, we are able to give you an estimated cost for your custom masterpiece.

You don't have to be a diamond or gemstone expert to know that a special gemstone is out there for you, you just need a little help finding it. So we begin the diamond or gemstone search. We work with your budget to find the best stone to match your chosen design and life style. This service is free of charge and has no obligation.

With a picture or sketch and a choice of stones (or no stones), we have enough information to create your design in 3-D. Using CAD, Computer Aided Design, we produce realistic renderings for your approval. Changes can easily be made to the design at this point and is yet another opportunity for you to be involved in the process. There are no additional charges for adjustments made to the CAD model at this point.

Once approved, the model is cast in metal, finished, hand fabricated elements are added, stones are set and patterns engraved. From start to completion most projects last 3-6 weeks.
