There’s something special about wearing a piece of jewelry that no one else in the world has.When you buy handmade jewelry in Beaufort, look no further than our team at AW Jewelry. We specialize in crafting handmade jewelry that reflects your personality and unique style.
Why Choose Handmade Jewelry Over Mass-Produced Pieces?
Mass-produced jewelry may be convenient, but it lacks the individuality, quality, and craftsmanship that comes with a handmade piece. Handmade jewelry is carefully designed with attention to detail and built to last.
There’s no assembly lines, no shortcuts, and no compromises. Every stone is set by hand and every element is carefully executed. The result is a one-of-a-kind creation you won’t find in any local jewelry stores.
When you shop handmade, you’re not just buying jewelry. You’re also supporting local artisans, sustainable sourcing, and a level of care that’s rarely found in brick and mortar jewelry stores.

The Handmade Jewelry Process at AW Jewelry
Creating a handmade piece of jewelry starts with your idea—and ends with a piece that reflects exactly what you envisioned.
- Design Consultation
We’ll sit down with you (or chat virtually) to understand your style, budget, and goals. You can bring in inspiration photos or ideas, or we’ll help you design from scratch. - Material & Stone Selection
You’ll choose your preferred metal, gemstones, and design features. We’ll guide you through what works best for your lifestyle and aesthetic. - CAD Renderings or Sketches
For more complex designs, we’ll create detailed digital renderings so you can preview the piece before it’s made. - Hand Fabrication & Setting
Your piece is handmade with precision and care, with all gemstones expertly set and finishes polished by hand. - Final Approval & Pickup
We’ll contact you when your piece is ready. Most handmade pieces take a few weeks, and every one is worth the wait.
