Jewellery Design

At Stelios Jewellers, jewellery design is the perfect fusion of creativity, skill, and craftsmanship. Our Perth studio specialises in both custom and ready to wear fine jewellery, creating stunning pieces that celebrate individuality and style. Whether you are redesigning a sentimental ring, commemorating a special occasion, or seeking a luxurious gift, our jewellery design service is tailored to you.

Custom Designed Jewellery made for you

We believe that jewellery should reflect your personal journey. Our custom design service allows clients to create one of a kind pieces for milestones such as weddings, anniversaries, and birthdays. Bridal jewellery is a popular choice, often featuring elegant diamond or pearl earrings, bracelets, and necklaces designed to complement the celebration.

The bespoke collection at Stelios Jewellers is created exclusively for each client, with every piece made to order after a personal design consultation. Whether you desire a yellow gold pendant or a gemstone engagement ring, we collaborate with you from the very first sketch to the final polish.

A Step by Step Design Process

Our design journey begins with a personalised consultation in our Perth studio. We discuss your preferences, budget, materials, and any existing pieces you would like to incorporate, bringing your ideas to life. From there, our team develops visual concepts using both traditional drawing and computer aided design.

Once your concept is confirmed, a detailed CAD model is created. This model serves as the basis for precise wax patterns, which are 3D printed in silver before being cast in precious metals such as Gold or platinum. Every element is carefully considered, from diamond settings to handcrafted clasps, to ensure lasting beauty and durability.

Timeless Craftsmanship and Modern Techniques

Our designers blend classic jewellery making skills with the latest innovations. Hand drawing and drafting methods remain a vital part of our process, particularly during the initial design phase. At the same time, computer aided design has become essential for complex projects and precision manufacturing.

We use traditional equipment such as soldering irons, jeweller’s saws, and wax carving tools to shape, form, and join each element of your piece. Skills in metalworking, silversmithing, and gem setting are essential to our craft, allowing us to produce pieces that are both structurally sound and visually striking, showcasing our skills in the craft.

The wax working stage is particularly important for custom jewellery, involving intricate techniques such as forming, shaping, and refining the final structure before casting.

Explore Our Ready to Wear Collection

In addition to bespoke services, we offer a curated range of ready to wear fine designer jewellery. This includes earrings, necklaces, pendants, and bracelets, all crafted to the same exacting standards as our fine jewellery custom pieces. These are pre-made and stored in our studio, making them perfect for those seeking a premium gift or a spontaneous indulgence.

Jewellery is often chosen to mark meaningful events such as anniversaries, graduations, or the birth of a child. Our ready to wear collection features high quality designs that are ready for immediate purchase, jewellery repairs also available, and beautifully packaged for gifting.

The Art and Evolution of Jewellery Design

Jewellery design has evolved over centuries, from simple beadwork to highly sophisticated metalworking and gem cutting. Historically, early jewellery commissions were made by nobility or the church, often adorned with intricate details and fine craftsmanship. Over time, techniques such as enamelling and repoussé became standard methods of creating ornamental wares.

The discovery of gemstones and advances in gem cutting revolutionised the art of ornamentation. The 20th century blurred traditional boundaries between styles, as social and economic changes influenced the design landscape. Today, jewellery trends continue to shift, often driven by cultural movements and lifestyle preferences, providing endless inspiration for  the designer.
