FROM VISION TO CREATION

The Mauzie Method

Despite being a smaller shop, our goal is to provide everything that a larger jewelry store does while combining it with the top notch customer service that you can only find at a small business. 

Consultation & Sketch

We begin the custom process with a consultation where Mauzie can get an intimate and detailed understanding of your vision. Or, if you only have the start of an idea, Mauzie can help you develop it!

After the consultation and initial deposit, Mauzie will begin to create the first sketches. At this point, Mauzie can clearly define the design, budget, and timeline.

Wax Model & CAD

Once your sketch is approved, we bring your design to life through CAD. Your piece is transformed into a detailed 3D digital model, allowing us to perfect proportions, stone placement, and fine details with precision and care. 

After the CAD is finalized, we create a wax mold of your design. At this stage, your vision truly begins to take tangible form.

Finished Piece

With every detail perfected, your piece is cast in your chosen metal and brought to life by hand. Stones are meticulously set, surfaces are carefully polished, and each finishing touch is completed with intention and artistry.

The result is a one-of-a-kind piece designed just for you, created to be worn daily, celebrated in life’s biggest moments, and treasured for generations.

Yes! Mauzie has over two decades of experience repairing and restoring jewelry of all kinds—perfect if you’d like to refresh an heirloom or incorporate existing stones into a new custom design.

Mauzie’s Fine Jewelry is based in Centennial, Colorado. We serve both local and online clients with custom designs, fabrications, and repairs.

Absolutely. You’ll review both the initial sketches and the CAD rendering before we move into production to ensure every detail feels right.

We work with ethically sourced metals and gemstones, plus offer stone sourcing options—helping you choose the materials that match your vision and values.
Because every piece is one-of-a-kind, custom items are final sale. However, we’re committed to your happiness—any design tweaks or adjustments will be handled with care post-delivery.

We always recommend using new metal rather than reusing existing gold. Casting a new piece requires a significant amount of material, and often heirloom or unworn pieces don’t provide enough usable gold for the process.

Additionally, the gold used in fine jewelry — such as 10k, 14k, or 18k — is not pure gold. These karats are created by blending pure gold with other metals to add strength and durability. Because alloy mixtures can vary, melting and reusing existing gold can lead to inconsistencies in color, quality, and structural integrity.

Refining existing gold is possible, but it adds cost and complexity to the process. During your consultation, we’re happy to evaluate what you have and recommend the best option to ensure a beautiful, lasting result.

We offer trade-in credit based on the value of your gold, which can be applied toward your new custom design, allowing you to honor the past while creating something entirely new.
