A visible path
from idea to object.
Bespoke work is collaborative. Each stage narrows the idea, resolves practical questions and prepares the piece for the next milestone.
Private consultation
We discuss the purpose, wearer, references, preferred materials, stones, dimensions, practical requirements and budget range.
Assessment & direction
KimTiao reviews feasibility and identifies the most suitable construction, setting and design direction.
Concept development
The brief is translated into a clearer visual and technical proposal. Revisions focus the design before production.
Quotation & approval
Scope, materials, commercial terms and estimated schedule are confirmed in writing before making begins.
Making & setting
The approved piece moves through the relevant modelling, fabrication, casting, assembly, stone-setting and finishing stages.
Inspection & handover
The completed piece is inspected, presented and accompanied by care guidance relevant to its materials and construction.
Decisions are made at the right time.
The purpose of a process is not to make bespoke work feel rigid. It is to make the important decisions visible.
Complexity, material availability, revisions, specialist processes and stone sourcing can affect timing. KimTiao will provide a project-specific estimate once the design direction and scope are sufficiently clear.
Bring what helps tell the story.
Useful materials include photographs, sketches, measurements, images of the intended wearer, existing jewellery, stones, examples of preferred proportions, and a realistic budget range. These do not need to be perfect; they simply help us understand your direction.
Your commission starts with a clear brief.
Bring an image, a sketch, an existing piece or simply an idea. We will discuss what is technically possible and shape a clear way forward.
