Our Custom Design Process
Frost & Co. prides itself in specializing in the custom jewelry process. When a piece of jewelry is designed at Frost &
Co. there are steps involved to insure that the piece is exactly what our client has envisioned.
The first step of our custom design process involves sketching ideas with our client. This helps to clarify a direction for our wax carver to create a three dimensional model. Frost & Co. clients work directly with our experienced staff.
The second step begins with our in-house craftsman sculpting the design from a block of wax, slowly working and
sculpting until he has achieved perfect shape and design. At this point the client approves the wax model or requests
modifications necessary to customize the design.
Then it is off to either have a mold made if the customer wishes to make multiple items with the same wax. This is the
process shown with the rectangular red block with the wax sitting on top of it. This process is done by casting the piece
of jewelry and then layering rubber sheets over the metal casted piece in order to leave a 3-D imprint so that Future
waxes can be created. If we are making a one of a kind piece jewelry we go from the wax to the casting process in any
choice of metal so that it cannot be duplicated.
After the rough cast is finished, our master craftsman completes the piece. Painstakingly polished along with the setting
of the stones are just a few of the steps involved in finishing the client's jewelry. Any necessary final adjustments are
made after the client has viewed the piece. Finally, the piece it is stamped with the Frost & Co. name to distinguish it
as an original piece of Jewelry As Unique As You.
Stop in and have our experienced staff create an engagement ring, a fitted wedding band or a fine piece of "Jewelry As Unique As You".
