Past your initial purchase- your custom jewellery is made to last – and we support you throughout its lifetime by checking, cleaning, polishing and where necessary plating once every 12 months to ensure your jewellery is still sparkling and sturdy.
✔ Transparent, educational, and enjoyable process
We guide you through the process and at every step- so you feel confident and excited about your design.
Clients are often amazed at how quickly and accurately we can bring design concepts to life.
This hands-on method lets you see and feel the components of your ring, so you can picture the finished piece in real life – not on a screen.
(Heirloom stones are assessed first to ensure they are suitable for resetting.)
We do not typically work with stones purchased elsewhere – this ensures the quality and integrity of every MDT DESIGN piece.
