What we do

Custom design, renovations, and repair, all under one roof.

Everything at Epperson's starts with a conversation and is made by our own jewelers in Cleveland. Here's how we can help, whatever you have in mind.

Custom Jewelry Design
01

Custom Jewelry Design

Bring an idea, an inspiration photo, or stones you already love. We design and build a one-of-a-kind piece in-house, from the first sketch to the finished heirloom.

  • Designed and crafted by our own jewelers, never sent away
  • Typically 4 to 8 weeks from start to finish
  • An estimated price range at consultation, the exact price after CAD
  • A deposit begins the work and applies to your final balance

Heirloom Renovations

Heirloom Renovations

Let's take those pieces you wish you loved and turn them into something you've been dreaming of. We reimagine dated or inherited jewelry into something you'll reach for every day.

  • Reset and restyle the stones and gold you already own
  • Not local? We'll send an insured shipping label for your piece
  • Trade old gold for a credit toward your new design
  • Keep the sentiment, lose the dust of the jewelry box

Jewelry Box Sessions

Jewelry Box Sessions

Sit down with us and go through your jewelry box together. We'll find the pieces worth reimagining, restyle what you already own, and build a wish list for what's next.

  • Grandmother's charm bracelet becomes a necklace
  • Mom's pearls find a modern setting
  • Leave with a clear wish list and a plan
  • Booked by the hour; the fee applies to anything we make for you

The custom process

From a first conversation to a finished heirloom.

Every custom piece and renovation follows the same unhurried path. Here's what to expect.

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We start with a conversation, to get to know you and discover what you envision in your tailor-made piece.

  2. 02

    Consultation

    We examine your diamonds and gemstones, review your inspiration photos, sketch first ideas, and source new stones if needed.

  3. 03

    Design

    Ellen returns to the studio to develop the sketches and fine-tune every detail of the design.

  4. 04

    Your Options

    We present a few design variations, so you can choose the direction that feels most like you.

  5. 05

    CAD Rendering

    A photo-realistic rendering lets you preview exactly what your jewelry will look like before it's made.

  6. 06

    Crafted by Hand

    Once you approve the design, our skilled craftsmen and master jewelers bring your piece to life.

Have something in mind? Let's talk it through.
