The Commission
Journey.

Considered at every stage.
Yours in every detail.

From the first private consultation to the final handover, each commission develops through eight deliberate stages. Design, material selection and craftsmanship are brought together around one individual.

By invitation and private introduction

Eight stages. One singular piece.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    A private conversation establishes the purpose of the piece, its personal meaning, how it will be worn and the ambitions of the commission.

  2. 02

    Pre-design

    Initial studies explore form, proportion and the design language of the piece. The direction is refined with the buyer before detailed modelling begins.

  3. 03

    3D model & wax creation

    The agreed direction takes shape as a detailed 3D model and a physical wax. Volume, structure and the relationship between each element become tangible.

  4. 04

    Material sourcing

    Precious metals and stones are sourced specifically for the commission. Their origin and supporting provenance are reviewed alongside the requirements of the design.

  5. 05

    Model trial

    The model is assessed with the buyer for scale, fit, comfort and intended movement. Refinements are resolved before the final design is accepted.

  6. 06

    Acceptance

    The buyer approves the design, selected materials and agreed details. This acceptance establishes the final brief for the piece’s creation.

  7. 07

    Creation

    The approved piece is individually crafted, assembled, set and finished. Its confidential identifying features are integrated into the work and known only to the House and the buyer.

  8. 08

    Handover

    The buyer receives the completed jewel, its presentation pack, three sets of provenance documentation and the entire source files created for the commission.

Exclusively yours

The piece. Its history.
Its entire creative record.

Three sets of provenance

Every piece is accompanied by three sets of provenance documentation, delivered as part of its handover pack.

A private signature

Every piece contains hidden identifying features known only to the House and the buyer. These confidential details support authentication and help distinguish the original from an imitation.

The complete source files

At handover, the entire source files created for the commission pass to the buyer. The House retains no copies of those creative files or production materials and will not reproduce the commission.

One commission. One owner. No House reproduction.

Private commissions, explained

Before the first conversation.

How does a private jewellery commission begin?

AUREUS 33° accepts commissions by invitation and private introduction. An initial consultation establishes the intentions, personal meaning and practical requirements of the piece.

Can I review the design before it is made?

Yes. Pre-design studies, a 3D model, wax creation and a model trial precede acceptance. The buyer approves the final design and agreed details before creation.

What accompanies the piece at handover?

The completed piece is presented with its pack, three sets of provenance documentation and the entire source files created for the commission.

Will the House reproduce my commission?

No. The House will not reproduce a commission and retains no copies of its creative source files or production materials after handover. Hidden identifying features, known only to the House and the buyer, support authentication.

Where are commissions created and presented?

AUREUS 33° commissions are handcrafted in Dubai and presented privately in London, or internationally by agreement.
