The Process
Working directly with my clients to design a custom piece is, for me, the epitome of creating a touchstone. I combine the desires and loves expressed by my clients with my creative intuition. The result is a piece of jewelry that is unique , connecting the wearer to their hearts’ desires each time the pieces are worn.
To create a custom piece, I have several ‘conversations’ with you through email. Ideas bubble to the surface with each exchange, until a design gels that incorporates the elements of what is truly important to you.
Patience is required for this process as it can take up to a month to have these conversations, hunt down the exact treasures required to form your piece, then lovingly hand craft it. The result, however, is a piece that will be worn for a lifetime.
Along with your Touchstone piece, you will receive a letter signed by me, describing the key components found in the design and the story they tell.
You can get the story behind some of my favorite Touchstone pieces by viewing the Gallery.
I look forward to working with you on your own story. To get the process of started of creating a Touchstone Design contact me using this convenient form.
