HAND CRAFTED JEWELRY
FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS
Our passion is inspired by Old World family traditions and over 3 generations creating stunning handcrafted jewelry designs for our very special customers.
Handcrafted jewelry has been produced for thousands of years. Gold and copper were among the first known precious metals to be used in sculpting adornments, usually for those of significant wealth. Today, the demand for handcrafted jewelry continues thrive due to it’s rarity and quality of work.
Creating handmade jewelry is laborious, time-consuming, technical, and scientific – a complex yet artistically rewarding creative process. The materials used can greatly affect the process and determine what tools and techniques will come into play for the best results. Extensive knowledge of the craft and a creative imagination are two of the most important tools for any fine custom jewelry maker.
Here at Simone & Son, we employ an extensive knowledge working with precious metals, utilizing various carving, molding, casting, forming, and soldering techniques. We employ high standards of quality control throughout the entire process and carefully inspect each piece of jewelry to ensure it lives up to the Simone & Son name. Our talented artisans utilize tried and true methods to consistently produce exceptional jewelry.
We work closely with you to make your hand crafted jewelry design a reality.
A sketch or hand rendering can initially be created of your unique jewelry design and we can work with you in person at our Huntington Beach showroom or alternatively, send you drafts of the rendering as your concept comes to life via email. Some examples of the types of custom jewelry that can be made include:
• Custom Engagement Rings
• Diamond Bridal Jewelry
• LoveMark Fingerprint Jewelry
• Custom Earrings
• Charms or Pendants
• Champion Sports Rings
• Unique Custom Class Rings
We work closely with you to make your hand crafted jewelry design a reality.
Genuine gemstones can be used in your handcrafted jewelry design including diamonds, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and many more. Synthetic colored birthstones can also be set in your handcrafted ring, pendant, charm, or earrings. Your own gemstones can also be set into a new custom pendant or ring that we can make for you.
HANDMADE VS. MASS PRODUCED
Mass produced jewelry is usually made using a computer generated template put into a machine and the chances of seeing variation in the jewelry is highly unlikely. When you get a piece of mass produced jewelry, you will undoubtedly be wearing the same piece as many other people who bought from that same line. An automated process operated by factory machines cannot and will not deliver a unique, valuable piece of jewelry like that of a handmade jewelry designer. It’s the minute imperfections that give custom jewelry and any handmade creation its character and overall distinctiveness.
Unique Handcrafted Jewelry – Custom made And Personalized.
When we talk about unique handcrafted jewelry, we mean custom made jewelry designed especially for you, not mass produced in a factory overseas. Having a piece custom made gives you flexibility, such as reshaping or resizing an item to fit your personal style.
The items created are one of a kind, and can sometimes be a blend of vintage and modern components, or a mixture of two converging styles. Such jewelry items include engagement rings, wedding bands, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, pendants, custom pins and even mens jewelry.
Because our unique handcrafted jewelry is made to order based on the design and materials to be used, each piece is truly unique. We can also make custom jewelry to match your wedding theme, whether you need only a few pieces for the bride or matching sets for the bride and the eight bridesmaids, you can get any combination and in any design you desire.
FROM VISION TO REALITY
Many gemstones have their own ‘stories’. It is indeed interesting to take the story of each gemstone and then translate it into a piece of jewelry. We love hearing the Customers’ vision for the piece and transforming it into an exquisite one of a kind piece of handcrafted jewelry.
Unique handcrafted jewelry is the perfect gift because it always has special meaning to the person who wears it. A hand made ring or pendant is inherently unique and there is nothing else like it in the world. Also, selecting handcrafted custom jewelry is a great way to ensure no one else is wearing the same piece as you!
If you’re looking for a unique piece of custom handcrafted jewelry, we have a wide selection here on our website. Rings, bracelets, earrings, necklaces, pendants, wedding sets, men’s jewelry, and other types of unique and one of a kind jewelry – all designed to be simply brilliant!
