Part 1: Meeting & discovering your project

First and foremost, I desire to get to know you. To do so, a custom project start by having you filling out a short Online Questionnaire so I can start piecing together who you are before we even chat.

Then we'll set up a nice video meeting. This is where you can really open up and share your story with me - the life experiences that shaped you, the things you're most passionate about these days. I'll ask all sorts of follow-up questions to make sure I'm understanding you fully. By the end of this call, I will have a good understanding of what kind of jewelry you may want, what styles you like, and therefore can provide you with an estimate of what this design work might cost. Custom design prices start at €1750.-

Part 2: Envisionning the possibilities

Once I've got a good sense of you and your vision, I'll start sketching out some initial design concepts. I'll explore a few different creative directions inspired by all the angles and ideas you expressed to me.
Think of these sketches as the first seedlings of your full design that I'm planting for you to consider.

We will go back and forth to refine and work on the final look of your piece. Each detail matters at this stage. I love this moment to expand with wide creative options, that may go much beyond what we initially imagined.

Part 3: Nurturing & Creating

After we refine the design and you decide on the concept you like best, I'll start carefully nurturing and refining it through rounds of prototypes. I will send you pictures, and videos of the process. With each version, I'll be sure to incorporate any feedback you have until the final design feels like a true reflection of your authentic self, and what you deeply dreamed of.

Part 4: Receiving your beautiful unique piece(s)

Finally, more or less 3 months after we started, you will receive your final jewelry piece. In person or through the mail based on both our preferences.

At this stage, you will likely also receive any meaningful other components, explaination of the process on paper, intentions set for the jewelry, little card about the meaning of the piece, or a video showing all the phases that the creation process went through.

Custom Made Creations & their Stories

  • Maud’s grandmother had owned a gold bangle bracelet since she was very young. She later gifted the same bracelet to Maud’s mother when she turned fifteen, continuing a special family tradition.In May 2023, Maud and her family contacted me with some of their collected heirloom gold, hoping to recreate that meaningful bracelet for Maud and her sister. After discussing ideas together, they decided remaking that same cherished bangle design would allow Maud and her sister to carry on the tradition.
    Using the extra gold, Maud also asked me to craft a solid Odile ring to honor past grandmothers in their family. The new bracelets and ring would link Maud and her sister both to the women who came before them and to each other, carrying forward these family treasures for years to come.

  • Nandish came to me with a meaningful vision - to craft a unique engagement band himself to offer when he asks for his beloved's hand. Through our conversations, the ring took shape, imbued with personal touches that would make it truly theirs. Nandish wanted only the finest 18k gold to encapsulate their bond. The design we forged together combines three interlocked bands, subtly reminiscent of signatures which come together as one. Elegant in its simplicity, it would lend beauty and meaning to every ordinary day she wears it.
    Over two treasured afternoons, I guided Nandish in bringing life to this emblem of their promise. The final ring emerged as a one of a kind creation, ready to hold within it a future of shared dreams.

  • Having already crafted a symbol of their betrothal, Sam and Roxane returned to commemorate their marriage with rings that would speak of an unending union. Through our collaboration emerged bands as distinct as the two they represented, yet bound eternally as one.To reflect Sam's stature and Roxane's delicate frame, I forged two rings of markedly different sizes, sculpted in harmony despite their contrast. As Sam slips the diminutive band onto Roxane's lithe finger, one envisions a bough gently curled in upon itself - beautiful in its natural form.
    His own ring sits heavier on the hand, evoking the sturdy trunk whence the branch extends. Together they depict nature's inseparability - rings without seam that have neither beginning nor end. While created as distinct entities, they take their fullest form and deepest meaning when standing side by side.

  • For years, Salomé had worn a meaningful stone gifted by her beloved brother, carrying him with her always. Yet the informal setting meant it never sat quite right. Eager to properly honor him, Salomé contacted me to finally craft a fitting tribute for the stone. Together, we designed an elegant necklace to display her brother’s gem with the dignity it deserved. No longer precariously encased, the stunning centerpiece now rests securely, amplified by subtle metalwork that accentuates its inner fire.

  • For her 30th birthday, Ella's mother gifted her a ring that belonged to her late grandmother. Though Ella has fond memories of her grandmother, the large ring didn't suit her style. Ella contacted Emma to redesign the ring into three smaller pieces - one with the sapphire and two stackable diamond rings. Emma collaborated closely with Ella throughout the process, ensuring the redesign captured the sentimental value. She even found a way to repurpose extra diamonds into her cousin's wedding ring, spreading more love. The final rings were presented during an emotional meeting where Ella, her mom, Emma and her cousin felt connected to Ella's grandmother.

  • Gustav created a necklace for his wife, Lina. In their tradition, offering a gift the day after the wedding is very important. Since their son, Bjorn was born, they have always called him Lilla Bjorn, little bear. We therefore crafted a necklace illustrative the little bear constellation, but full of elegance & finess.

Gabi’s testimony

"Emma is fantastic. After Sam bought one of the rings from her collection as engagement ring... We immediately thought about her when we discussed our wedding bands. We went to her with an idea and she turned it into reality. She sent us the prototypes of the rings in very short time and they were already perfect 🥰 We loved chatting with her and discussing ideas. We can't wait to have another jewellery project in our head just to work with her again." Rox & Sam

"We called on Emma for a rather special request. We had some old jewelry belonging to my grandmother. Unfortunately, they were no longer to our taste. So my mom and my sister and I wanted to create something that would unite the three of us. As my mom already had a gold band, we decided to ask Emma to create 2 other identical bands, as well as a ring from her existing collection. Emma listened, advised and, above all, explained the whole creation process! We were really able to follow the whole process, step by step. I'm so happy to have called on her magnificent talent and creativity for this project, which was very close to our hearts. What's more, supporting a young craftswoman was essential for us."
