If you have ever thought about having a special piece of jewelry custom made you will be happy to know that there are more great tools available than ever before to bring your ideas to life. With the evolution of computer assisted design and computer assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM), the possibilities today are limitless.
Custom made jewelry today can incorporate an infinite range options. Design details can be captured from pictures and drawings and be imported into the software to be used as design elements. The CAD programs can create a photo realistic rendering of a proposed design so that any needed changes can be made prior to manufacturing.
Once the computer design is finalized, a wax model is either milled or grown and the model can be inspected in three dimensions. Once again, any changes required can be made in the program and a new wax created. Upon final approval, the wax is cast in gold or platinum, the gemstones are set and the piece is polished and your custom made jewelry is ready to enjoy and treasure.
This high tech jewelry design process takes all the guesswork out of custom made jewelry. In addition, the technology makes it possible to achieve a new level of complexity and perfection.
Now is a great time to consider custom made jewelry for that special occasion, or to finally make that piece you've always dreamed of. Of course, if the project is not complex it can still be created the old fashioned way by hand carving in wax or by fabrication.
