We do custom. All day, every day.
-
Dream it.
It starts with a spark—an heirloom to transform, a stone you love, or a design you’ve imagined for years. Whether you’re honoring a memory or creating something entirely new, your vision is the heart of the process.
-
Design It.
From hand-drawn sketches to digital renderings, we work with you to bring your idea to life. We’ll guide you through stone selection, settings, and metals—making sure every detail reflects your style and story.
-
Craft It.
With expert craftsmanship and years of experience, we turn your design into a one-of-a-kind piece. Whether it’s a full custom build or a meaningful remount using your existing stones, we treat every project with care and precision.
-
Wear It.
There’s nothing like wearing a piece made just for you—one that holds meaning, memory, and intention. Whether it’s a modern reset or a brand-new design, your custom piece becomes part of your story, ready to be worn, loved, and passed down.
At Shannon’s Fine Jewelry in Essex Junction, Vermont, we believe that your jewelry should be as unique as you are. That’s why we offer expert custom jewelry design services, where anything can be customized to your liking.
Our Process
Step 1: Personalized Design Consultation
Whether you’re starting with a family heirloom, a loose gemstone, or simply an idea, our custom jewelry process begins with a one-on-one consultation at Shannon’s Fine Jewelry in Essex Junction, Vermont. We’ll talk through your vision, style preferences, and budget to understand exactly what you're looking for—whether it’s a custom engagement ring, a remounted wedding set, or a one-of-a-kind gift.
Step 2: Collaborative Design and Review
As your custom jewelry design takes shape, we’ll involve you at every step. Through hand sketches and detailed 3D renderings, our team will ensure the design reflects your style and expectations. Regular check-ins allow for thoughtful revisions and help us fine-tune every detail before moving forward.
Step 3: Wax Model and Final Casting
Once the design is approved, we’ll create a wax model (if needed) to give you a full 3D view of your piece. Then, we move into the casting stage using high-quality metals like gold, platinum, or palladium. Your involvement doesn’t stop here—we’ll continue to communicate clearly, ensuring the finished piece reflects your original vision and meets our standards for durability, quality, and beauty.
At Shannon’s Fine Jewelry in Essex Junction, VT, we believe that custom design and jewelry remounts should be timely, fairly priced, and stress-free. Some projects can be completed in just a week, while others take a bit more time—but we always communicate clearly and deliver exceptional value without compromising quality.
From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll experience the difference of working one-on-one with our goldsmith. Every piece is handled with care and attention, and—with the exception of stone re-cuts—your jewelry always remains safely in-house. Whether you’re designing something brand new or breathing new life into a treasured heirloom, you can trust us to treat your jewelry like it’s our own.
