How It Works: The A. D’Mae Custom Jewelry Journey
Together, we’ll hand-select from GIA-certified, lab-created, or ethically sourced gems to craft a unique piece that reflects your story. Whether you’re starting from scratch or re-imagining a family heirloom, I will work with you one-on-one to design a stunning piece of jewelry that fits your budget and your personality.
Step 1: Design Consultation
We start with a conversation. Alexandria gets to know who the piece is for, what matters most to you, and what kind of beauty speaks your language.
No pressure—just shared inspiration.
Step 2: From Inspiration to Initial Sketches
Alexandria brings your ideas to life with 2–3 initial sketches, based on everything you’ve shared. It’s a creative back-and-forth where we shape your design until it feels right.
Step 3: Selecting Your Perfect Stone
Each stone will be hand-selected with your design, desired quality, and budget in mind.
We will take the guess work out of the stone hunt - you just get to pick you favorite(s)!
* We will never show you stones that are out of your price range or under our quality standards.
Step 4: See It Come to Life
We’ll precisely engineer and architect your design into a 3D CAD model and send you a digital image for your approval. This is your first glimpse of how the final piece will look before we begin building it.
Step 5: From Model to Metal
Once your CAD is approved, we take the 3D concept to metal and make a casting of your ring. From there we hand set your stones, add design details and polish.
The Big Reveal!
Once your ring is ready, we’ll arrange a pickup or insured delivery and schedule a quick meeting to go over care, cleaning, and insurance.
Your piece will arrive in a beautiful keepsake box with jewelry cleaner to keep it sparkling—perfect for storage or your proposal.
