At Alloy Custom, we specialize in creating one-of-a-kind pieces designed around your story. Whether you’re designing an engagement ring, modernizing a family heirloom, or starting fresh, we’ll work with you to create something meaningful.
We’ll begin with a conversation to understand your vision, style, and what makes the piece meaningful to you. If you have inspiration images or pieces you love, bring them along—they help us refine the details and create a design that’s uniquely yours.
If you’d like to incorporate your own gemstones or precious metals, we encourage you to bring them to your consultation so we can evaluate their suitability and explore how they might be integrated.
Custom pieces typically start around $1,250. Once we finalize the design and pricing, a 50% deposit is required to begin crafting your piece. This secures materials, covers the design process, and allows us to move forward with creating something truly personal.
Once we’ve refined your vision, we’ll create a detailed digital rendering of your design using CAD (Computer-Aided Design) technology.
You’ll be able to see your design from multiple angles and explore how it will look once finished.
We’ll work with you to adjust the design until it’s exactly what you envision.
After finalizing the CAD design, we can create a 3D printed model so you can see and feel the shape and scale of the piece before it goes into production. This ensures that every detail is perfect before we being crafting your piece.
3. MATERIAL SELECTION
We’ll guide you through selecting the best materials for your design:
METALS – Choose from 14k and 18k gold, platinum, and specialty alloys.
DIAMONDS – We offer natural and lab-grown diamonds in a variety of shapes and qualities.
GEMSTONES – Explore sapphires, rubies, emeralds, and other fine stones.
USING YOUR GOLD OR STONES – We’re happy to work with heirloom gold or stones after inspecting them for quality. Any excess gold not used will be credited at current market value.
Once the design and materials are finalized, we’ll provide you with a detailed estimate so you’ll have a clear understanding of the total cost before we begin production.
4. HANDCRAFTING
Once the design is finalized, our expert jewelers will bring it to life with precision and care — all work is done on-site in our workshop.
By handling everything in-house, we maintain full control over the production process, ensuring consistent quality and attention to detail.
Keeping production in-house also allows us to control costs and maintain more competitive pricing without sacrificing quality.
Production typically takes 4–6 weeks, but express service is available for select pieces with a 10–14 day turnaround for an additional fee.

What’s the difference between custom and modified designs?
A custom piece is designed entirely from scratch, starting with your vision and specifications. We’ll source materials and handcraft a one-of-a-kind design tailored specifically to you.
A modified design involves adjusting one of our existing Alloy designs — such as changing the metal, swapping a gemstone, or adjusting the setting. Modifications allow you to personalize a design with little to no additional cost beyond the standard pricing.
We can help you decide which option works best for your needs.
Can you use my stones and metal?
We are happy to evaluate customer-supplied gold and stones. We’ll carefully analyze your materials to determine if they can be incorporated into your new piece. Gold will need to be melted and cast separately to maintain consistency and quality. If we can’t use the gold directly, we’ll credit any excess at the current market value. Heirloom stones will be inspected for structural integrity before being reset.
How long does it take?
Custom pieces usually take 4–6 weeks from design approval to completion, depending on the complexity of the design and material availability. For those with tighter timelines, we offer express service on select pieces with a turnaround time of 10–14 days for an additional premium.
We’ll provide a more accurate timeline during your consultation.
Do you offer express custom services?
Yes, we offer express service on select custom pieces. Express production is available in 10–14 days for an additional premium. Availability depends on the complexity of the design and the materials selected.
Please consult with us to determine if your project qualifies for express service.
