It starts with a consultation to discuss your ideas, inspirations, and budget. Next comes the design phase, often with sketches or CAD renders. Once approved, your piece is handcrafted using your chosen materials. Sunrise jewellers across Birmingham keep you involved at every stage — from design approval to final fitting or delivery.
How long does it take to create a bespoke piece?
Most bespoke jewellery takes between 3 and 8 weeks depending on complexity, materials, and approval stages. Birmingham jewellers will give you a clear timeline at the outset and keep you updated throughout. Planning ahead is key, especially if the piece is for a birthday, anniversary, or proposal.
Can I supply my own stones or gold?

Not always. Prices vary depending on the materials, complexity, and time involved. Birmingham jewellers can often create something bespoke that matches or beats high street prices — but with far greater quality and meaning. You’ll receive a full quote before work begins, with no hidden costs.
