The Bespoke Journey

Stage 01

initial consultation

Your bespoke journey begins with a one-to-one consultation, either face-to-face, Zoom or via email. 

This get-to-know-you session is all about piecing together the vision for your bespoke jewellery creation. Don’t worry if you don’t know where to start.

Let’s explore the eras and styles that appeal to you, who or what has inspired your commission and what it represents to you. If you’ve brought pictures, a Pinterest board or other items to share, I’d love to see them. There’s nothing more inspiring than pouring over mood boards and hearing your ideas. 

If you’d like to remodel jewellery, whether that’s an heirloom, old gemstones or something vintage, please share their history if you feel comfortable. It’s your chance to share the memories and associations that make it special to you. 

From concepts and colours to gemstones and settings, this consultation will uncover what will make your design unique to you. 

Following the consultation, I’ll sketch some initial designs and send them to you in as little as a week, although the exact timings depend on each project. I’ll also source any gemstones or diamonds required at this stage.

Stage 02

second consultation

I will invite you for the second consultation to view and discuss initial hand sketches.  It’s an exciting moment when you’ll see your idea taking shape for the first time. The discussions allows you to see how I’m interpreting your vision and pin down any details still up for consideration.

Stage 03

cad images + resin sample

Once you’ve finalised your design and gemstones, I’ll create a realistic image of the bespoke piece using CAD design. For further reassurance, I can produce a resin model for you to sign off before beginning work on your final piece.

Stage 04

crafting your masterpiece

This is when your design come to life. With a combination of the latest technology, the oldest bench skills and the utmost attention to detail, my team of craftsmen and craftswomen will translate your design into a sparking reality in around 4-8 weeks.

Stage 05

the big day

Tada! At your earliest convenience, I’ll invite you to the workshop, organise delivery or arrange to come to you for the big reveal! I’ll present your bespoke masterpiece, boxed alongside the initial CAD drawings, ready for you or your loved one to cherish and enjoy. 

Stage 06

Aftercare

I know how special this jewellery piece will be to you or your loved one, so I am pleased to offer a complementary stone ‘check and polish’ one year after purchase. Additional checks will incur a small charge. I recommend you book these annually as your insurance may require it.

Lovely words from our customers

After literally years of not being able to find exactly what I was looking for, Sarah created a beautiful bespoke ring for me sourcing an unusual chocolate diamond and creating a gorgeous unique design. She was thoughtful, diligent and just absolutely lovely in the process. Her technical knowledge is matched by her design flair - Sarah also advised on a repair of my much-loved wedding ring after two repairs by Hatton Garden jewellers had failed - now I can wear it again after years of it sitting in the box! I can't recommend Heulwen Lewis Bespoke more highly.

EL HINDAL

I asked Heulwen Lewis Bespoke to make a necklace for my mum’s 60th birthday that was like the one her mum used to wear every day. I wanted a jewellery piece in silver, with a diamond that represented 60. The communication, efficiency and genuine care for what was being made was second to none.
Sarah, you’ve really made something so special to both of us so I’m so grateful, and I’m so happy I chose you to come to.
I cannot recommend Heulwen Lewis Bespoke enough!

GEMMA HARPER

Sarah designed the most beautiful earrings using stones from a family heirloom. I really appreciated the time taken to get to know me and my style and the design ideas just blew me away! I absolutely love my asymmetric earrings, they are perfect and no one else has anything like them. Thank you!
