To create a 3D jewelry through the app, the user will have to choose the type of jewelry and specify the size. The user will then have to select from the available options for both the charm and the metal and gemstone selection.
Users can also send their own original designs to Elements Lab for a more customized jewelry design. The ordering process is explained through the recently-released Elements Lab trailer.
According to the company’s website, all gemstones that will be used in their silver products are man-made stones, while the ones that will be used on real gold products, such as their 10K yellow, white gold and rose gold jewelry, are natural stones. Pearls that will be used in all of their metal products are genuine with sizes ranging from three to 6.5 millimeters in diameter.
