Appointments are available at all of our locations daily between 10:00am and 5:00pm.
• Our design consultations are always free, no matter if you are contacting us via email, through our website, over the phone, or in person. Once your specifications are confirmed for your completed estimate, a 25% deposit is required to begin the custom design, upon which time our design team will create a rendering (computer design) for your feedback/approval prior to beginning forging, casting, and setting your custom piece of jewelry. During the rendering approval process, we will work with you to make as many modifications to the rendering as necessary to assure your design is perfectly represented and approved by you prior to the actual casting. Upon final approval of the design rendering, full payment is required prior to forging and setting your custom piece of jewelry. Depending on the complexity of your item, some pieces can be created in a matter of a couple of days, however for most custom-designed pieces, the turnaround time is approximately 2 weeks to allow time for creating the custom mold, casting, setting, final polishing, AGA certification, and final inspection/evaluation by our quality control team and gemologists. Upon our final evaluation, customer will be notified that the jewelry piece is ready for pick-up. If you are unavailable to pick up your piece in person, your item will be shipped to you upon our final evaluation.

Items must be of equal or greater value than the original custom item being exchanged, with the difference in higher value paid by the customer. No refund will be given on custom order exchanges. If the customer chooses to trade for an item of lesser value than original custom item then credit will apply to their next purchase. Due to the complexity and the individual requirements on each custom piece, any returns of custom items must be received by Edwin Novel Jewelry Design within 30 days of the customer’s receipt of their custom jewelry order, and will be subject up to a 45% restocking fee based on the complexity of the custom item being returned.
