Simply Stone Arts

2 Project Overview ✦

What are we creating together?

Step 1: Tell me what you've seen on this site or elsewhere that like. Pick the color, material, shape, size, settings and bails that appeal to you.

Step 2: Schedule a virtual meeting, and we'll explore options. You'll be able to start your gemstone project by selecting rough gemstone material and actively designing your gem from scratch (3 - 5 weeks), or you'll be able to pick an available gemstone and directing desired modifictions and selecting the metal, color, style and design of the setting and bail.(Less than 3 weeks) If you start your project from rough, I will share picture updates after each stage of the gemstone cutting process from sawing to shaping to sanding and polishing as the raw stone is transformed into a polished gemstone. Non-refundable deposit and Invoice / Contract at this stage.

Step 3: Inspection and acceptance. I retain risk of breakage or sub-par outcome until the piece is finished and you are given the opportunity to inspect in person or via high resolution photograph. Buyer is at risk only for non-refundable deposit which may be used to purchase a different available item available on the website.
