Bespoke Consultation Appointments
Begin your design journey by booking a 45 min consultation with Eloise, either virtually or from our CBD studio. To do so, click here and select Bespoke Consultation from the options provided. Bookings are open 3 months in advance. If you do not see any consult times available in the next 3 months, you can wait for more times to be released or email us to contact you if there are any cancelations. A $60 deposit is required to confirm your appointment, which is later redeemable from the final cost of your piece. Should you decide not to go through with bespoke work by Eloise the $60 deposit is non refundable as this covers time spent during and in preparation for your consultation.
Location
Choose to have your bespoke design consultation in person at our CBD studio - (813/37 Swanston st, Melbourne) or via Zoom.
Deposit
After the design consultation or once the client has approved the design direction, a 50% deposit is required for the production process to commence. In some instances, for more expensive gemstones, a deposit of up to 70% may be required.
Bespoke Production Timelines
Once deposit is made, bespoke pieces take 12 -16 weeks to come to fruition. We encouraged clients with a specific proposal date or occasion in mind to allow a little extra time when planning, to ensure a smooth turnaround.
Budget
The minimum budget for bespoke designs is $2500AUD, however the price for your piece will be determined by metal and gem choice and piece complexity. We are skilled at working with your personal budget and will do our very best to source stones within your range. This can be further discussed during your consultation.
Preparing for your Bespoke Design Consult
It is useful to come to your consultation prepared with an idea of the style of piece and gemstones that you like. We recommend browsing through Eloise's past bespoke designs and other one of a kind designs. Please keep in mind that Eloise will not copy the work of another artist or jeweller.
If you are completely unsure, just come to your appointment with an open mind of what is possible.
Heirloom Stones
We love working with clients own heirloom stones as they are often full of history and sentiment. Please bring them to your bespoke design consultation. Please note, we prefer to work with the most durable stones such as heirloom diamonds, sapphires or rubies.
Repurposing Gold
This service can only be provided for certain designs that can be sand-cast in house. These are often more simple style textured bands.
For most of Eloise's designs that feature more details and stones, we cannot reuse a customers own gold, however we can offer a refining (recycling) credit from the existing gold towards your new piece
Ring Sizing
At your consultation we will measure your finger to determine the best ring fit for you. If you are designing a ring as a surprise for a loved one, it is a good idea to find a ring they currently wear and measure the internal diameter of this ring. Find out more with our ring sizing guide here.
If you are still in doubt, don't worry - we will work with you to find the closest size estimate. As a last resort, we can offer one complimentary resize for bespoke designs.
International + Interstate Customers
Eloise proudly works with clients across the globe. Your initial bespoke design consultation will be held virtually via Google Meet or Zoom. Further conversation about your piece during the design and production process may include phone calls, emails, images or videos.
Please note, international shipping fees are the responsibility of the customer. International packages are subject to taxes and duties upon delivery to your country. Any customs fees, taxes and duties that may be incurred to clear your item through customs are also the client's responsibility. Eloise Falkiner does not cover the cost of these international taxes and duties.
To find your ring size, measure the inner diameter of an existing ring for the correct finger and match your measurement to the size chart below. If you do not have an existing ring to use then please visit your local jeweller to be measured.
Providing the correct ring size when the order is placed is the responsibility of the customer.
RESIZES
Eloise Falkiner offers ring resizing for $100. In some instances the cost may be slightly more if the piece is in gold and needs to go up more than 2 sizes. Furtherore, if a ring only needs to increase in 1/2 - 1 size, it can be slightly stretched up at a cheaper rate.
Metal and Plated Jewellery Care
Please be conscious that gold-plated jewellery is delicate and will wear over time. Do not spray gold plated jewellery with perfume or wear in water. A metal specific polishing cloth, or specialised jewellery cleaner can also be used to rejuvenate your piece. Some of our jewellery pieces are unpolished and can change colour over time (especially if left unworn). This is not a manufacturing fault, just the manner of the material.
We offer our customers gold plating renewal on their items when deemed necessary. We are happy to arrange this at minimal expense to the customer. Customers will need to cover the freight costs. We do not charge extra for this service or profit from it.
Pearl Care
Pearls are porous and therefore caring for your pearls is very important. Without the right care, the natural beauty and value of your pearls may be diminished. Please do not drop your pearl jewellery on hard surfaces, submerge in water, wear with open woven clothing, spray with perfume or expose to cream/makeup of any kind. Pearls should be cleaned with a damp cloth but never submerged in water or sprayed with cleaning products. A good rule of thumb is to put your pearl jewellery on last.
