CREATE A ONE-OF-A-KIND JEWEL FOR LIFE'S DEFINING MOMENTS

Through a one-on-one private consultation, Nikki, Graduate Gemologist and Founder of Nicole Mera, will help guide you through the experience of buying or creating a one-of-a-kind engagement ring, wedding bands, or piece of custom fine jewelry.

While an important jewelry purchase can seem overwhelming at times, Nikki is here for you every step of the way.

THE CUSTOM PROCESS

Step One

INITIAL CONSULTATION

At an initial consultation, Nikki and you discuss budget, design goals, diamond/stone preferences, and time frame. Nikki also has a selection of jewels that help with design inspiration. Nikki will detail what to expect from start to finish. If you are unable to meet in person, Nikki can work with you by zoom/email/text.

Step Two

DIAMOND/GEMSTONE SELECTION

Beauty and rarity are important qualities when selecting the perfect gemstone or natural diamond to represent your love and commitment. Nikki understands the qualities a stone must have in order for it to stand above the rest. Nikki only works with GIA certified Diamonds and with reputable diamond & colored gemstone manufacturers to ensure that you not only receive a beautiful and high-quality stone, but one that is also responsibly sourced. 

Step Three

MANUFACTURING

Nikki will oversee the production from start to finish. Each piece is handcrafted by the most skilled artisans, each of whom has vast experience with hand fabrication and a complete understanding of how to handle your precious gemstones and diamonds.

Step Four

DELIVERY

Upon completion, Nikki will set up a final consultation to deliver your custom piece of fine jewelry in our signature Nicole Mera pink box. This is also the time we will discuss the appraisal, insurance, care details, and any other final details. If you are a remote client, Nikki will overnight and insure your piece of jewelry for a safe and secure delivery. 

FAQs

A minimum 50% deposit is required to begin production on any custom order. Please note that stones cannot be held without a deposit and may be shown to other clients if you're not ready to proceed. The remaining balance is due upon delivery or shipment. 

In some cases, a deposit may be required before sourcing or selecting specific stones, which will be applied toward the total cost of your custom piece.

Beauty and rarity are essential when selecting the perfect gemstone or diamond to symbolize your love and commitment. Nikki knows what it takes for a stone to truly stand out. That's why she exclusively works with GIA-certified diamonds and partners with reputable gemstone suppliers, ensuring you receive not only a stunning, high-quality stone but one that is responsibly sourced as well.

After selecting the stone and finalizing the design details, Nikki will provide a formal Quote Sheet for your approval, outlining every aspect of the project and including visual references. This step ensures that every detail is captured before production begins. Please note that due to the nature of custom, hand-fabricated jewelry, the final piece cannot be previewed until it is completed.

If you don't live in Texas, no problem! 

Nikki is excited to work with you remotely and will seamlessly communicate via email, text, or Zoom to design your custom fine jewelry piece. You can expect detailed information, high-quality videos, and images that accurately depict your final product. 

Remote clients may request to view stones or jewelry in person, but full payment is required in order to do so.

Nicole Mera is the best! My fiancee worked with Nikki to design my engagement ring and wedding band, and I'm obsessed with them. Not only is jewelry gorgeous, the process was so smooth. Nikki is an amazing professional - fair, responsive, thoughtful, and always positive and kind. We are both jewelry novices, and Nikki asked us thoughtful questions that helped guide us to some pieces that are both beautiful and work well for our lifestyle. Send your fiancees her way (or head there yourself)!

I have been lucky enough to work with Nikki multiple times now and I have to say each time she’s just better and better. I understand wanting to create a quality piece of jewelry and being terrified what that will cost me!! It is so very true that you get what you pay for however with Nicole Mera you get so much more!! Each piece is as custom and special as the person you’re gifting it too!! For me it was my fiancé and now my wife. Nikki helped me create the most beautiful engagement ring and so it was no question where we would go for our wedding bands. When I say it is a mistake to go anywhere else for your custom fine jewelry needs, I mean it! Nikki helped us create pieces that worked together and separate!!! Taking into consideration that my wife and I are VERY different, Nikki’s suggestions honored that and simultaneously focused on how well we balance each other. These rings were spot on!! We were able to use a family diamond in my band and birth stones in each band! And this was AFTER I flaked on our first design!! Nikki was so patient with us and never made us feel rushed or stressed, she just smiled and laughed with us and THAT’S WHAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE! Ino I could go to many different jewelers and probably walk out with a quality piece, but would I walk out with confidence and reassurance knowing I’m getting THE BEST piece? Take that chance if you want, but I’ll be sticking with who I KNOW AND TRUST! Nicole Mera Fine Jewelry

Nikki at Nicole Mera was THE BEST to work with on a custom engagement ring. She worked with my fiancé and I on selecting the perfect stone and designing exactly what I wanted. Then she and my fiancé added some personal touches so there was still some fun surprises. She spent a ton of time answering my questions and making sure everything was perfect. Can’t wait to work with Nikki on bands and more in the future!

Working with Nikki on my custom ring was such a great experience. I had been wanting to re-design my grandmother's ring that was passed down to me into a new piece of jewelry I would wear for years to come. Nikki's knowledge and guidance was super helpful when deciding on what kinds of materials I wanted to use. The whole process was so easy and streamlined - from the in-person consultation, to emailing concept photos, to the final delivery. Words cannot express how happy I am with the final result of this piece. I was equally excited to be supporting a woman owned, local business as I was to be receiving my new ring! Do yourself a favor and book Nicole Mera for all your custom jewelry needs!

I highly recommend working with Nicole Mera for any of your jewelry needs! We were connected with her by our wedding planner and could not have been more pleased with our experience. Nikki facilitated multiple planning sessions with us, providing thorough information on everything she offered and educating us on both the jewels and the production process. She was very patient with us as we worked through the designs, ensuring we were satisfied with every detail. She helped us with three custom designs, two wedding bands and a pair of earrings. We were extremely pleased with the quality of our pieces and genuinely love what she helped us create. We look forward to working with Nikki again in the future!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Nikki Swift at Nicole Mera Custom Jewelry Design to create a truly special piece for our mother's 70th birthday present. From start to finish, the service and personal attention received were exceptional. Nikki went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of the design was perfect, resulting in a breathtaking and sentimental piece of jewelry. What truly stood out about Nicole Mera's service was their commitment to understanding the significance and meaning behind the jewelry. They took the time to listen to our vision and story, and their genuine enthusiasm for creating a one-of-a-kind piece for my mother was evident throughout the entire process. It was clear that they genuinely cared about capturing the essence of the occasion and making it a truly unforgettable gift. The extreme attention to detail demonstrated by Nicole Mera Custom Jewelry Design, was remarkable. The craftsmanship and quality of the final piece were truly outstanding. Nikki created an incredible ring that sparkled with diamonds and 8 hand-selected birthstones to symbolize each grandchild. The ring was beautifully set, and the overall design was elegant and timeless. When our mother opened the gift and laid her eyes on the ring, her reaction said it all. She was left speechless and overcome with emotion. The thoughtful combination of birthstones and the exquisite craftsmanship left her in awe. It was a moment filled with joy, love, and gratitude, and I cannot thank Nikki enough for making it possible. Overall, I highly recommend Nicole Mera Custom Jewelry Design for anyone seeking a truly personalized and exceptional jewelry experience. Thank you, Nicole Mera, for creating such a cherished and meaningful piece of jewelry that will be treasured for generations to come.

I buy jewelry as gifts for my girlfriend, mother, and sister in laws. It has always been an intimidating process, but with Nicole Mera, it was easy and fun. Highly recommend to people like me spending $1,000 or less on a piece, but I understand there’s also engagement rings and custom jewelry available, and can only assume the personalized experience will be the same.

I recently had my family rings resized and refreshed with Nicole Mera. It's never easy to let your favorite things go even for a minute, but when I say I felt like the rings I have seen my whole life came back better, brighter, and more brilliant... I mean it! The entire process was professional and easy. And the final result was nothing short of perfection. I would absolutely recommend using Nicole Mera for any touch up or needs you have with your family heirlooms. Thank you Nicole Mera!
