It usually takes some time to decide on the right style of jewelry one might want (for more information, see what are the elements?). Deciding on gemstone types and quality is usually very simple and quick. And size only really applies to bands and rings, and usually only takes a moment.

The making of the piece usually takes about 6 to 8 weeks. Waiting through this time is the hard part. But it isn't so difficult when you realize that you will be getting precisely what you want.

A planned purchase is not a last minute shopping event. You will want to begin discussing your purchase with us at FirstGem about two to three months before you want it delivered.

You may have heard about custom jewelry and may be wondering, is this custom jewelry?
