Get Started

Step 1: Dream It

Step 2: Design It

We’ll turn your innovative design into a reality. By using computer-aided design (CAD), your vision can be transformed into a 3-D rendering, right in front of your eyes — bringing your custom jewelry design to life with precision and clarity.

Step 3: Transform It

Thanks to our 3D printing service, a wax is created to replicate your custom design. This physical prototype allows you to try on the design and inspect the finer details. After that, we’ll make any last adjustments until your vision is perfected — ideal for those creating custom engagement rings or other meaningful pieces.

Step 4: Treasure It

Martin Binder does all metal casting in house, which means you’ll receive your new piece in a prompt and timely fashion. Every custom jewelry design is crafted with care, ensuring a piece as unique as the story behind it. This creation will last for generations to come, a product of your creativity and a testament to your soul.
