Crafting your
unique legacy
At Drew Cole Jewelry Design, I believe your jewelry should tell your story. Discover how I transform your vision into a breathtaking, personalized masterpiece, reflecting your style and history.
Often, old jewelry has become worn and lost most of its beauty. Giving old pieces a new or recreated setting is like breathing new life into something, so the client gets a whole new season to enjoy the piece. Transform your treasures with Drew Cole Jewelry Design.
The art of custom design
The creation of your piece is unique, with its own set of challenges. Each piece is crafted to exacting standards to fit your stones perfectly, ensuring a truly bespoke and beautiful result. An average custom jewelry piece we make has between 8 and 15 hours invested in it, a testament to our dedication.
The idea...
I usually start with simple pencilsketches for ideas like flow and balance. This can take hours or days, just can't rush art. Often times narrowing down the ideas to just onelook is the most challenging part of the process.
Perfecting the design...
After we have settled on a desisgn idea, I create the CAD (computer aided design) model. This lays out the stones and gold in 3D so you know exactly what the piece will look like when finished. Most design can model in 2-8 hours.
Creating the model...
I use a CAD driven 4 axis milling process (CAM) to create wax models tbe cast. I personally like the wax models better than I do resin grown models, even though are faster. The wax model is a better cast product in my opinion. Milling time can take 1-8 hours depending on the model.
