What is the difference between Karat and Carat?
Karat: The "karat" is a measurement of purity for the gold. (e.g., 24K or 18K.) 100% gold is 24K. 18K is 18 parts "pure gold" out of 24. Meaning, the purity of gold in 18K is 75%. In the U.S. the most popular karats are 10K,14K, and 18K.
Carat: The "carat" is a unit of measurement used for measuring the weight of diamonds and other precious stones. (e.g., a 1 carat diamond.) 1 carat is equal to 200 milligrams. As carat weight for a diamond increases, so does the price because bigger diamonds are more rare and sought after.
Karat Purity
0 Karat = 41.7% Gold
14 Karat = 58.3% Gold
18 Karat = 75% Gold
22 Karat = 91.7% Gold
24 Karat = 99.9% Gold
How can I place an order for custom jewelry?
Simply fill out our custom jewelry form, and give us as much detail you can about the piece you want made. We will respond back with an estimate quote for the piece.
What is the custom jewelry process?
Once we've received your request and details about the piece, our team will start designing. After you have approved a design and placed your deposit, we will take it to the computer where we bring your vision to life through computer-aided design (CAD). Then, a 3D wax model of your custom piece is printed, and moved on to the gold casting. Our team of jewelers finish off your custom gold jewelry with polishing, smoothing, and diamond setting until it meets our quality standards. Once the remaining balance is paid, your beautiful piece is ready to be sent out to you.
What payment options do you accept?
We currently accept payment through most major credit cards, and PayPal.
Do you have payment plans available?
We do not offer payment plans at this time. For custom made jewelry orders, we accept a maximum of 2 payments. We take a 30% deposit at the beginning of the order, and the remaining balance when the piece is finished.
*Deposit can not be refunded once paid.*
