Custom Jewellery
At Kolmio, we believe every piece of jewellery should tell a story. That’s why we love collaborating closely with you to craft bespoke, heirloom, and one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect your unique vision. Whether you’re dreaming of a new design or reimagining heirloom stones into modern settings that suit your style, our custom process is designed to be enjoyable and stress-free.
We guide you through every step, offering expert advice and exceptional virtual service, with the option for in-person consultations or calls. From concept to creation, we’re here to transform your ideas into a timeless treasure. Here’s how we make it happen:
Discover Your Style
Your custom jewellery journey begins with an idea or inspiration for something that’s made just for you. Browse Pinterest, Instagram or our gallery, saving images of jewellery that inspires you. Consider your lifestyle, favourite styles, and even future pieces like a wedding band. Visiting a jewellery store to try on different designs can also spark ideas.
Send Us An Email
Reach out to us by sending us an email to tracey@kolmio.co.za. Share pictures of the piece you're dreaming of with a rough budget. We'll start to unpack what details are most important to you - to help us source the perfect diamond for you.
Choose Your Diamond
Now that we have a clear vision of the design you like, we'll start looking for the perfect diamond. During this step we'll send you photos / videos of the diamonds we've sourced for you staying within range of your budget. With this process we’ll take you beyond the 4 C's to help you pick the perfect diamond. Diamond sourcing can take a few days, depending on what we are looking for.
Cost Estimate & Design
When you've picked your diamond, we'll send you a cost estimate to make the piece. A 80% deposit is paid to secure your stone and start with the final design process. From our initial design discussion, we’ll send you a picture of your design to give you an idea what the ring will look like. This takes approximately 1 week to do. When you're happy with the design, we'll start with production.
Production & Delivery
Once the design is set, production begins. Exceptional craftsmanship and skill is used to craft your bespoke piece. Each stone is expertly set and secured in place. It takes approximately 3 weeks to make your ring. Once the piece is finished, the balance of the payment is requested. Your order is now ready to send with our courier. All our courier parcels are insured for goods in transit and also offer international shipping with DHL.
