Carlsbad Gem & Mineral of Carlsbad Village also creates custom designed jewelry. We work with highly-talented, local jewelry designers to take your rough idea and turn it into the perfect piece you envisioned. Can you imagine wearing a piece you helped design? We actually do this quite often... from custom wedding rings, to the perfect necklace, with matching earrings and bracelet, to dazzling pendants!

The process is quite easy. It starts with a discussion of metals, followed by more choices: diamonds, semi-precious stones, or "The Big Three: rubies, emeralds, or sapphires. What colors, what shapes? Then, style... what kind of look are you after? Modern, sleek, delicate, chunky, curvy, or squared? What size? What about budget? As the ideas form, a sketch is created to your satisfaction. Then, the artisan produces a cast or model of the piece. Upon approval, it is handmade.
