Bespoke Engagement
Atelier Vipond has been forged in, defined by, and built on custom work. From design to finished piece, we are well set up to bring your dreams into reality entirely in our studio.
We aim for a 6-8 week turnaround time for all custom orders. This time can shorten slightly or increase based on the complexity of the design. Check out our FAQ for general questions on custom work. For anything more specific, dont hesitate to contact us.
Step 1
Ideate
In our first meeting, whether through email or in person, we get an idea of what the client is looking for. Everything helps at this stage, from reference photos and sketches on napkins, to favourite colours, and styles.
Step 2
Define
From our first meeting, we take the notes and images to create 3D renders of what the ring is going to look like. Using the clients finger size and an approximate stone size, we can create an accurate and proportionate design that properly conveys what the final piece will look like, before even touching metal.
Step 3
Refine
Going back and forth with the client, the design is refined to a final render. Once this final render has been decided upon, the ring can now be put into production.
Step 4
Create
The gemstones are brought in, the metal is organized, and the piece is created. With a lot of fire and patience the piece is formed from molten metal, carefully polished, the stones set, and any engraving added.
Step 5
Deliver
The piece is then boxed up and shipped to you, ready to be enjoyed for a lifetime.
