Jewelry and gems are created to inspire generations of appreciation. With each piece comes an individual expression and unique sentiment.

What is CAD?
Computer Assisted Design (CAD) is a tool that blends craftsmanship, art and science together to create precise, refined products. In the right hands, CAD brings previously unheard of levels of detail and imagination to life through design engineering. Rapid prototyping capabilities and three-dimensional printing with Computer Aided Machines (CAM) enable low cost, low risk alternatives to previous methods of custom jewelry creation. Using specialized software similar to what an architect or automotive engineer might use, schematics are rendering in three dimensions – drawings are given depth, texture and proportional shape. Computer aided machines work with specialized software to print renderings using stereo-lithographic or rapid prototyping, instead of a jeweler hand-carving or milling unique designs. CAD custom jewelry making is a more precise, more detailed and more creative method to bring your visions to reality.
