You have the option to purchase a gem in two ways. Reserve it for a custom order: We'll hold your gem till you're ready to start creating. This option is recommended if you want to create a custom piece for yourself, rather than gift it to someone else. Gift it with a one-of-a-kind custom design experience: This option is recommended if you want to gift a gem to someone else. We'll send it, with your chosen design credit, to your recipient. When they are ready to have their custom piece created, they can make an appointment for an online or in-person design experience.
