Behind the Studio
How It's Made
Nine steps. Days of work. One piece made just for you.
Step 01
Botanical Gathering
It starts in nature. Each flower is hand-selected for its shape, color, and character. We source from local gardens, dried flower suppliers, and seasonal forage. No artificial substitutes — only real botanicals.
Step 02
Pressing & Drying
Fresh flowers are carefully pressed between absorbent sheets and left to dry for 2–4 weeks under gentle pressure. This stage is what determines the final color and texture — patience here is everything.
Step 03
Mold Preparation
Each mold is cleaned and polished before use. We use silicone molds in the shapes of the final piece — earring drops, round pendants, ring faces. The first layer of resin is poured to create a crystal-clear base.
Step 04
Resin Pouring & Layering
Dried botanicals are placed by hand using fine tweezers — positioned exactly where they will sit in the final piece. Additional layers of resin are poured over them, trapping the flowers in place. Each layer is cured before the next is added.
Step 05
Curing
UV or heat curing locks the resin into its final form. This process takes several hours per layer. Rushing this stage causes bubbles or soft spots — so we never do. Every piece cures fully before it moves forward.
Step 06
Sanding & Polishing
Once cured, rough edges are sanded through multiple grits — from coarse to ultra-fine. The surface is then buffed to a glass-like shine. This stage alone can take 30–60 minutes per piece.
Step 07
Hardware Setting
Hypoallergenic ear wires, bail hooks, ring bands, and chain connectors are attached by hand. We use only nickel-free, tarnish-resistant hardware suitable for sensitive skin.
Step 08
Quality Check
Every finished piece is inspected under bright light for inclusions, surface imperfections, and hardware integrity. If something isn't right, it doesn't ship — we start again.
Step 09
Packaged with Love
Your piece is placed on a branded card, nestled in a soft jewelry pouch, and packed into our signature studio box. A handwritten note is added for every order. Then it's ready for you.
Why Made to Order
Your piece doesn't exist yet
We don't keep inventory. Every piece you order is created fresh, from scratch, specifically for you. This means the botanicals are at their best, the resin is freshly mixed, and the hands that made it were thinking only of your order. That's not a constraint — it's the whole point.
