Engraving and symbols
Good for names, markings, emblems, and linework when you want the reference to be subtle.
Custom character jewelry
Start with the details that make the character yours: the ears, eyes, markings, expression, silhouette, emblem, or story. Those references can become engraving, relief, or a fully sculpted piece that is planned for comfort and durability from the start.
Useful references
Character sheets, drawings, front and side views, color notes, favorite expressions, symbols, and inspiration links are all helpful. Add a short list of the features that cannot be lost. You must have permission to use everything you submit.
Good for names, markings, emblems, and linework when you want the reference to be subtle.
Good for layered faces, silhouettes, portraits, and texture with some depth and a clearly defined front.
Best for dimensional heads and larger forms. These pieces need extra planning for weight, thickness, strength, and snagging.
Forms and details
Stone-set eyes, mismatched eye colors, engraving, texture, oxidation, and enamel may support the character when they suit the scale and wear requirements.
Approval and production
I handle the planning, design direction, communication, and approvals. When a design calls for it, I work with established U.S. jewelry specialists for CAD, casting, stone setting, engraving, enamel, polishing, or finishing.
Send the references and details you have. I will reply with an estimated price range and schedule before there is any design fee.
The fee goes toward the finished piece and becomes non-refundable once design work begins. It includes one concept and up to two rounds of changes.
For complex work, half of the amount left after the design fee is generally due after you approve the sketch and final price and before CAD begins.
If the project uses CAD or another detailed design, you approve it before the last payment is due. That payment is collected before casting or before materials and stones are purchased. Your quote will explain the payment schedule for simpler work without CAD.
Start with what you know
Share the references and practical details you already know. It does not have to be fully worked out.
No payment is required to ask. Most character commissions are $1,500–$3,500. You approve the design before production.
