"We take care of what can't be replaced" isn't just a line for us — it's most of what happens at our custom design counter every week. At Forever Jewelry in Greenwood Park Mall, families bring us rings that no longer fit a life, stones that outlived their original setting, and jewelry boxes full of pieces nobody wears anymore. Here's exactly how we turn those into something new.
How the process works, step by step
Consultation and assessment
Every project starts in person. We examine the piece (or pieces) closely — checking stone condition, metal quality and what's structurally realistic — and just as importantly, we listen to the story behind it. What made it meaningful? What do you want the new piece to feel like?
Design exploration
Next we put together design directions based on your inspiration — sketches or digital renderings that let you see the shape, setting style and stone placement before anything is made. This is the stage to think big: combine stones from multiple pieces, change the metal, update a dated setting into something you'll actually wear daily.
Design refinement
You review the design and we adjust — proportions, stone placement, metal choice — until it's right. No piece goes to production until you've approved exactly what it will look like.
Crafting and finishing
Once approved, the piece is fabricated: original stones are carefully reset, new settings are built, and everything is polished to a mirror finish. You get a full walkthrough of the finished piece before it goes home with you.
What custom design is perfect for
- Grandmother's or mother's ring that no longer fits your style or finger
- Combining stones from multiple old pieces into one meaningful design
- Updating a dated setting on stones you still love
- Repurposing an engagement ring after a life change
- Turning loose stones that have been sitting in a drawer into something wearable

Frequently asked questions
How does custom jewelry design work?
Consultation and assessment, design exploration with sketches or CAD, a refinement round, then crafting and finishing — you approve the design before anything is made.
Can old or broken jewelry be redesigned?
Yes — original stones can be reset into a new setting, multiple pieces combined, or new gemstones and metal added to update an outdated design.
How long does custom jewelry design take?
It varies by complexity — simple resets move faster, while multi-stone combination pieces take longer to design and fabricate correctly.
Do I need an appraisal first?
Yes, the process starts with an in-person assessment of the piece before any design work begins.
