CUSTOM DESIGN Written by Jessica Lindner Photographs Courtesy of Creative Cabin Studios
Have you ever pictured your perfect ring, but been unable to find its exact match? Or have you ever wanted earrings that are a little more unique than what you find in a case? With eleven state-of-the-art design craftsmen, the custom jewelry team at Brown and Company Jewelers is expert at transforming your ideas into reality. And thanks to Brown and Company’s investment in custom design talent and technology, the entire process is kept in-house, keeping the cost of a custom piece comparable to what you would get in a case. The process of crafting a cus“IT’S SO EXCITING TO SEE A tom piece is hands-on, from the initial discussion to the final polish and CLIENT COME IN WITH AN IDEA, presentation.

This is entered into the computer system, and a 3D PROFESSION, AND OUR GREAT JOY model of the piece is created, allowing IS THAT WE CAN COLLABORATE a client to see their piece from every WITH OUR CLIENTAL AND BE PART angle.

This creates a mold in liquid Frank Brown wax, which is then covered in plaster and placed in the oven overnight. In the oven, the wax burns off, leaving a mold. Depending on preference, the mold can be filled with either platinum or gold, both of which are alloyed in-house. 6
The piece is then brought to the bench, where it is cleaned, sanded, and filed to perfection. Every aspect of a piece is cleaned so that it is beautiful on the inside and the out. Each stone is then meticulously set. Finally, the custom jewelry is taken to the polishing table and brought to life. The level of skill in the department is unparalleled, as is the enthusiasm for working with clients. Every team member gets excited about custom designs, from the master jewelers who are working directly with the piece, to the sales associates on the floor. They all understand the work that goes into creating the jewelry, and are always thrilled to deliver the finished product to the client. Neale Simpson, the shop foreman, has been at Brown and Company for ten years. He was trained in the European manner of being a jeweler, a practice that dates back hundreds of years to the Renaissance period. “When the client is as happy with all the hard work that the design team here at Brown and Company has put into it, that’s what gives us the most satisfaction,” Neale says. Owner Frank Brown explains that Brown and Company is a one-of-a-kind jewelry store, and that the mission statement is a love and passion for people and jewelry. Jewelry is an important part of people’s lives. It is one of the few items that can be passed on from generation to generation, because the gems are forever. The design team at Brown and Company loves being part of something so special. They also love helping clients celebrate— anniversaries, birthdays, weddings, and engagements are just a few of the special occasions that the team has been called on to create unique pieces of jewelry for. Of course, a special occasion isn’t necessary. All that’s needed is an idea, and Brown and Company will bring it to fruition. In-house services offer custom jewelry for a variety of pieces, including rings, pendants, bracelets, and earrings. If you already have an idea that you are ready to translate into reality, or if you are just interested in adding a custom piece to your collection, contact Brown and Company to make an appointment with your personal Atlanta-based designer.
