From sketch
to 3D modelling
After this gestation period, the first drawings of your jewellery come to life. Catherine Daymard offers you several artistic directions so that you can choose the perfect design.
Then comes the stage of volume. 3D modelling allows you to visualize the jewellery in all its dimensions, and you can have the first fittings of your future piece. DAYMARD uses various modelling techniques, including wax sculpting, silver model, and computer-aided design (CAD), as shown below.
