The process of making fine handmade jewelry requires an incredible amount of time, dedication, skilled labor, and patience to manually control the tools and to modify precious metals and gemstones into works of art. Handmade jewelry is the benchmark for craftsmanship in elegant jewelry. Intricate designs take hours or days and skilled techniques to finish. Each piece of handcrafted jewelry showcases a unique character. The process involves soldering, sawing, carving, and shaping without the use of mass-manufacturing machines
