Commissioning a Unique RingThere is a $225 fee to have a ring designed for you in consultation with Alice Herald. Alice will ask questions about you or your partner's fashion, lifestyle, personalty, occupation, etc, and then prepare some sketches. Of course if you already have a specific design in mind she can work on your idea. Typically Custom Designs start from $5,000. Typically 2-3 options will be sketched. Depending on your feedback, one of those will be developed into a photo-realistic picture so that you can make a final decision before purchasing. The ring will typically cost the same as a similar ring from our range.
