Shark's teeth, rabbit skulls and keys are among just some of the things we have been commissioned to plate. If you have a special item that you would like turned into a bespoke piece of jewellery, please call us on +44 (0) 1273 472570 for a consultation. Please note: plating is a complex process and we cannot give a 100% guarantee that your item will be successful. We do have an excellent success rate - we can only remember one commissioned shell not turning out as planned - but we are aware that when we are doing personal commissions we are dealing with people's treasured keepsakes and memories. Therefore we want to be sure that you understand that whilst we do everything we can to make sure your item is successfully plated, it is possible for circumstances beyond our control to affect the process. If we have any serious doubts as to the feasibility of an item we will always decline the commission. We may be able to advise you during an initial telephone consultation as to whether an item is likely to be suitable, but usually we like to see it before making a decision. We can give you an approximate quote over the phone but will give you a final quote on receipt of the item. Because of the amount of time and the volume of quality materials that goes into our plating process, we do still have to charge you a fee, even if the plating is not successful. This will be a partial amount of the full quote and you will be advised of what this will be before you decide whether to go ahead. |
