I recently ordered a custom chain for my boyfriend from Alithea Design. My boyfriend couldn’t be happier with the result. He has already received a ton of compliments and hasn’t taken it off since. The craftsman ship of the chain is impeccable. Overall I highly recommend Alithea Design to anyone looking to invest in a custom made chain. The experience was seamless and John was a pleasure to work with. I will definitely be returning for future custom jewelry needs.

Stunning pieces of jewelry!!! I got two but put one in already so no pictures! These are hinged on one side so no more body jewelry tools to put them in or take them out. Solid 14k gold so also very sturdy. Thank you, John. Well worth the wait!

I had no idea where to turn, or with whom to consult, to re-imagine a white gold, double-banded diamond wedding enhancer into something new. At first, I chose Alithea Design because of their numerous positive ratings and "hires", but when I began the process with John, I knew I made the right choice. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable of his craft, he explains the entire process step-by-step. After some collaboration, he provided computer-generated images that served to visualize the finished piece. In just over two weeks, he transformed the original piece into a platinum diamond eternity band stunner that exceeded my expectations. I was so pleased with the entire process, his responsiveness, and his absolute professionalism, that I plan to consult with him on appraisals of my vintage and heirloom pieces and other redesigns.
