The Process
Embarking on a custom design with Universal Deco is an intimate and collaborative experience. Each piece begins with a story, a spark of emotion, or a vision ready to take shape. If you are drawn to Fernanda’s signature textures and sculptural forms, you already understand that her work is about more than adornment. It is about translating feeling into form.
Whether your piece is a symbol of empowerment, a token of self-love, or a reimagined family heirloom, Fernanda approaches every design with care and intention. Together, you will explore ideas, discuss budget and timeline, and select gemstones if needed. From there, Fernanda brings your vision to life through thoughtful sketches, hand carving, and meticulous texturing. The result is a one-of-a-kind piece that captures your story in gold.
Once your design vision is defined, Fernanda begins the transformation by hand-carving a wax prototype, refining each detail to capture the spirit of your piece. You will receive photos of the wax model, often shown with stones to help you envision the final design. After your approval, the piece is cast in your chosen metal, then polished, textured, and refined to perfection. Each stone is carefully set by hand, completing a one-of-a-kind Universal Deco creation that is as personal as it is enduring.
