THE BESPOKE JEWELLERY PROCESS

“We put our heart and soul into every piece of jewellery that we create. With our bespoke jewellery service, we invite our clients to do the same”

With the extensive knowledge gained working with gemstones and manufacturing for many years, ANPA has today nurtured the bespoke jewellery experience.

A bespoke design is a wonderful choice, particularly for something as special as an engagement or wedding ring. Bespoke jewellery, tailor made, made to order or custom made jewellery are different expressions for the same process – designing and creating a piece of jewellery that expresses you and you only. The designer leaves his or her own styles behind and seeks to correctly interpret the clients dreams and wishes, while all the time guiding and assisting the client with technical, practical and other design issues.

To set up an appointment for a design consultation, please contact us via email, give us a call at our Kalk Bay studio on +27 (0) 21 788 9622 or call Andreas Betzold directly on +27 (0)83 301 9011.

Andreas Betzold will guide you through the entire process. He will discuss your ideas, provide inspiration and make aesthetic as well as practical recommendations on gemstones, metals and styles, based on your personal preferences, your lifestyle and your budget.

If you have ideas in mind, please bring drawings or samples along to the initial consultation. Should you have gemstones that you would like to use, ANPA is happy to include these in your design but generally ANPA sources and supplies any gems required.

The process for bespoke jewellery items is both simple and exciting. Andreas Betzold will furnish you either with sketches and/or supply high quality CAD images of your design. There are lots of opportunities to tweak the design until you, the client is entirely satisfied with the design, as well as selected gemstones.

After the design and gemstone selection has been decided upon, a detailed quotation will be compiled. From date of acceptance, we usually require 14 days to complete the piece, but have completed jewellery designs within 48 hours.

  • Good morning Andreas, I just want to say thank you for the ring that you made for Maylin!  It is absolutely amazing!!! She loves it and was ecstatic when she saw it.  She is 100% happy with it! Also the way that you presented the ring and everything else that was in the ring bag is just beautiful. Your work is defiantly done with passion! Regards Christiaan

  • Dear Patrizia, Just to let you know that I'm back in the UK now with the beautiful necklace you made. We were in Cape Town for a week after we left Franschhoek and although I looked in several jewellery shops, there was nothing that could come close to being as lovely as the necklace I bought from you. It was an impulse purchase but I really love it and don't regret it for one minute - and I'll think of Franschhoek every time I wear it. Thank you so much for getting your husband to drop off the paperwork and lengthening it so quickly as it's just perfect. Best wishes, Anne

  • Hallo Frau Litty, der Topas-Anhänger hat alle Erwartungen meiner Frau übertroffen. Die Vergoldung bringt das Schmuckstück nun noch besser zur Geltung. Der Schliff des Steins und die Einfassung sind hervorragend gearbeitet und lassen den Anhänger zu einem ganz besonderen Schmuckstück werden. Vielen Dank für die professionelle Abwicklung des Kaufes und die sehr gute Beratung.  

  • Hi Andreas, We ordered our wedding rings with you two years ago , perhaps you still remember. I haven't seen such beautiful jewelry ever since and since I am very selective about wearing jewelry I was wondering whether you ship to The Netherlands as well? We love to come back to your amazing country but we have two very little kids now so travel has to wait for a bit. I hope you are well and looking forward to hearing from you! Elsine

  • Dear Andreas I can’t believe that for as long as I’ve been a fan, I’ve only visited the Kalk Bay boutique now (I think I may have ventured into the Franschhoek boutique once).  And, if I didn’t rave about your new website, it is fab, fab, fab!  Epitomises everything about your brand – the photographs and other artwork are lovely. Warm regards, Erica
