And we’re also thrilled with what we allow them to create – from extravagant expressions of love with rare-cut diamonds to deeply personal reimaginations of heirlooms. “

Typically, customers begin the process when speaking with one of Jared’s jewelry consultants, whether in a store or virtually. For those who like the idea of ​​designing something from scratch, their next step is often to connect with a Jared Craftsman who could obviously work at a Jared Foundry or any Jared location across the country.

The artisan typically asks the client to describe their goal and vision, followed by their preferences for budget, materials, and time. They will also discuss the client’s personality, lifestyle and style aesthetic – such as Modern, Classic, Art Deco, Sculptural, Minimalist, etc. Throughout the design process, Jared provides clients with sketches, images, and videos to show potential permutations in real time. – and the client maintains control by approving each iteration.
