Every commission follows the same four steps — enough structure to feel safe, enough room to stay personal.

01
Consult
We start with a conversation — in person, by call or on WhatsApp. We listen to the story, the occasion, the budget and any stones you already have.
Consult — step 01 of the XLVIII & Co commission process
02
Design
Hand sketches and 3D renders bring the idea to life. We refine together until every proportion is right — then confirm the stones and a clear quote.

03
Craft
Diamonds are cut and polished in-house; the piece is fabricated, set and finished by hand in our atelier. This is where brilliance is made, not bought.
Craft — step 03 of the XLVIII & Co commission process
04
Deliver
Your piece is graded to strict GIA standards, documented and insured for delivery — anywhere in the world. Backed by a lifetime warranty and care.

Typical timeline

Most commissions take 8–12 weeks

Simpler pieces are faster; intricate settings take longer. We'll give you a realistic date at the design stage — and keep you updated as it moves.
