Elevating individuals look with bespoke jewellery design.

About

Jewellery designers are creative professionals who design and create pieces of jewellery using a variety of materials including precious metals, gemstones and beads. Moreover, they may work for themselves or for a jewellery design firm and their work may range from designing custom pieces for individual clients to creating large-scale collections for retailers. Jewellery designers often begin their work by creating sketches or digital renderings of their designs. 

This allows them to visualise their ideas and communicate them to clients or colleagues. Many jewellery designers use computer-aided design (CAD) software to create their designs. This allows them to create detailed 3D models of their designs, which can be used to produce prototypes or to show clients.
