CAD, CAM, Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacture, are amazing tools to making fine jewelry.

What was once impossible or nearly impossible or took a great master craftsman to create is now made possible with the aid of computers.

A design is created on the computer and a rendering is generated. You can make adjustments and changes to the rendering.

Once the rendering is accepted a three dimensional wax model is made from the computer rendering. You can now inspect it in life size. changes can be also made at this stage.

If the wax is approved it is then cast and finished.

If someone told you the design of your dreams was impossible, look into finding some one that can help you with the aid of a computer. You can have that beautiful one of a kind jewelry you always wanted.TDS_Hirata_r1

Carolyn had wanted a very personal, uniquely designed diamond ring made, one that was intricate and delicate. She had not yet found anyone that could do it when she walked into our store.

The modern usage of the computer and accompanying equipment makes possible producing very intricate and fragile mountings. Almost anything is possible.

With a picture, sketch or idea a computer rendering can be made of the jewelry piece. With the customers approval a wax model of the jewelry piece can be made and viewed in a 3-D form in its actual size. If the customer accepts the wax model, it is cast, stones are set and the ring is polished. Done!

Carolyn’s anniversary band commemorated her wedding date July 7, 2007.
