Welcome to Silver Salt and Stone Customs
Hi there! Thanks for stopping by and for your interest in a piece of custom jewelry. At this time, I am taking a pause from customs and have closed my wait list to catch up on current orders.
If you are already on the list, or if we have spoken about a piece that is in the works, not to worry, I am working my way down the wait list in a first come first serve order.
To shop in stock jewelry please visit my shop page for ready to ship pieces. I update my shop periodically, usually every few weeks. Once the waitlist has been re-opened, you will find a contact form here on this page where you can enter your info to add your name to the list. For daily updates or to see what i’m currently up to, the best place to follow me is on instagram @silversaltandstone.
Thank you for your interest, time and understanding.
With love always,
Chelsea
The Custom Jewelry Process
-
Dream it.
Silver Salt and Stone custom jewelry is wearable art. Each piece is created in the highest handmade quality with craftsmanship made to last! Every piece I create is one of a kind and made with intention. I do not replicate anyone else’s work, however I am happy to create you a beautiful piece within my personal silversmithing style. Whether you have a vision in mind, or dont know where to start, I would love to guide you through the process!
-
Build it.
You can choose your own stone, bezel type, the setting details, ring bands, chain types, custom stamping and more! I hand fabricate each setting so no two pieces are ever alike. All pieces are custom sized to your liking. There are many options, whether you’re thinking dainty and classic, a bold statement look or something for a special occasion, we can create the vision.
-
Wear It.
Customs take time! I create each piece with love from start to finish. The average time for a custom piece ranges from 2-12 weeks, and trust me they are worth the wait! Once your special piece is finished, I mindfully pack each order myself in intentionally chosen, recyclable, hand stamped packaging to be shipped to you with love and care.
Step by Step
-
Step 1 - Choose a Stone
Choose a stone. I always keep a variety of stones on hand to choose from. Do you want something bright and bold like turquoise? Or sleek and classic like onyx? There are stones that stand out and stones that match everything for daily wear, choose what you love!
-
Step 2 - Choose your type of jewerly
Decide if you would like a ring, necklace, cuff or earrings. If you are ordering a ring or cuff, you will need to know your size. For necklaces, you may want to consider your desired chain length and for earrings the size and weight. If you’re unsure about sizing, just ask! I am always happy to help.

Step 3 - Design and Style
Each custom order includes a 25 minute design consult where I will work together with you (in person or remotely via zoom/email) to explore design options and come up with your dream design that is one of a kind for your special piece. Additional design hours are available to be charged per half hour and hourly rate.
-
Step 4 - Deposit/Payment
Once your design has been finalized, I will quote you a price. Pricing is based on type of stone, size of piece, detail of design, labor time, etc. For all custom orders, a non refundable $75 deposit is required at the time of scheduling the consult, that will be credited toward the value of your order. The remaining balance is due upon order completion.
-
Step 5 - Processing time
Average processing time for custom orders varies, and on average, is about 2-12 weeks for each custom order depending on when your order is placed. Each order is made with love by my own two hands, and remember good things in life take time! If you need your order for something special on a certain date, please let me know and I will do my best to meet the deadline if possible.
-
Step 6 - Final Payment/Shipping
When your order is complete I will reach out for final payment. Final payment is due within 48 hours of your order completion. As soon as final payment has been received, your order will be shipped for you to enjoy!
