Customized jewellery has gained a lot of popularity off late. It is a great way to buy something of your choice and stay unique. Custom engagement rings and necklaces are more popular with women, while men too prefer customized pieces over others. Custom made jewellery helps you get a great product that’s not worn by anyone else (as it’s your own idea). However, if you are getting custom made jewellery designed for the first time, there are a few things which you should keep in mind.
Attention to detail
When getting a piece customized, make sure the firm or the designer is paying attention to detail. You might have a lot of ideas for customization, but may or may not be able to communicate it well. So, the designer should have the ability to listen to everything patiently, and then design accordingly. A lot of designers lack this, resulting in jewellery piece that you are not very happy with.
Design blueprint
Before finalizing a design, always ask for the blueprint or the sketch. Sketches are made to ensure you are able to see what the design is. Some designers also come up with 3D sketches to give you the exact idea of what the jewellery piece will look like. So, it’s important to ask for a sketch. If there are changes, you can suggest them instantly, rather than waiting for the jewellery to be designed, and then making changes – costing time and money.
