Don't just give jewellery — give jewellery you made yourself
Anyone can buy a ring. Only you can make one with your own hands for the person you love. In a few hours at the ZL Jewelry workshop you will create a piece no one else has, while an experienced jeweller makes sure the result is flawless. We film the whole process — and give you the video as a gift.
Our jewellers speak Ukrainian and Russian. If you don't speak these languages, please bring someone who can help translate.
A gift they will remember for a lifetime
Shop-bought jewellery brings joy for a day. Jewellery made by your hands tells a story every time it is worn. Here is how it happens:
You propose with a ring you made yourself. A year later, on your anniversary or simply on a quiet evening, you play her the video: you sawing, soldering and polishing that ring just for her. Imagine how she will feel in that moment.
Thousands of couples wear wedding bands from a shop. Yours belong only to the two of you. You make them for each other, and every detail was shaped by your hands.
The children write mum their warmest words — and their handwriting stays forever on a ring or pendant. When you give it to her, you play the video at home on the TV showing how you made it together. Mum gets a double emotion: the jewellery and the moment she sees you at work.
A drawing your daughter or son made at the age of four can be kept forever. Dad brings it to us — and turns it into a gold or silver pendant.
Some words are hard to say out loud. Engrave them on a bracelet you make yourself — and they will be with the person you love every day.
Has your mum's or grandmother's ring been lying in a jewellery box for years? Together with a jeweller you can rework it, add stones — and the family heirloom will shine again, now with your story.
Think about who you want to surprise like this. We will do the rest together.
Video as a gift
We film you creating the piece — and give you the finished video. Show it when you give the gift, at the wedding, or years later when you remember this day. Sometimes it's the video that moves people most. Filming only with your consent.
Worried it won't work out? It will.
No experience needed: an experienced jeweller is with you at every step — showing, guiding, backing you up. And for an engagement ring we guarantee the result: we cast two blanks. You assemble one, while our jeweller works on the other in parallel. Whatever happens — you leave with your gift.
What you can make
Wedding bands and engagement rings are the most popular choice. But you can create any piece:
How it works
Price
We quote the exact price once a jeweller has seen the photo of your idea. No hidden extras: everything is agreed in advance.
- Your own jeweller with you the whole time, no group
- Tools, equipment and a workbench at the manufactory
- Finishing by our jewellers and fineness hallmark
- Video of the process — as a gift (with your consent)
Metal
Their stories are already made
Couples who made their wedding bands with us — and their emotions. Videos and photos are published with their permission.
We love showing how jewellery is born, so we offer to film your workshop for our social media. Only with your consent — there is a separate question in the form. Saying no has no effect on the workshop.
Questions and answers
What language is the workshop in?
Ukrainian or Russian — the languages our jewellers speak. If you don't speak them, please bring someone who can help translate.
Do I need experience?
No. The workshop is designed for people who have never worked with metal. The jeweller shows every step and backs you up wherever precision matters. Tell us in the form whether you've ever worked with your hands — it helps us prepare.
How much does the workshop cost?
From PLN 1000 for a private workshop with a jeweller lasting from 3 hours. For more complex pieces we quote the price and time after seeing the photo. Metal is charged separately.
Whose metal is used?
You can bring your own gold or silver or work with ours. If the metal is ours, you pay for the metal in the finished piece at the current rate.
How long does it take?
From 3 hours. Wedding bands or a more complex piece may take longer — we agree the time in advance.
Can we come as a couple?
Yes. Wedding bands are most often made by couples: each makes a band for the other.
Do I have to agree to filming?
No. We only film with your consent, and saying no has no effect on the workshop. If you agree, you get the video of the process as a gift.
How quickly do you reply?
Within one working day: we'll tell you whether the piece can be made, how long it will take and how much it will cost.
What if it doesn't work out?
It will — an experienced jeweller is right beside you. For extra peace of mind we can run two processes in parallel: for an engagement ring we cast two blanks — you assemble one, our jeweller the other. If anything goes wrong, the jeweller takes over and you still leave with your gift.
When can I collect the piece?
After the workshop the piece stays with us for finishing and hallmarking at the assay office. We'll let you know when it's ready — you collect it together with the video.
Can I come with my children?
Yes. Dad and the kids can make a gift for mum together — for example, turning a child's handwriting or drawing into a pendant or ring. We'll discuss the details once we receive your request.
Start with a photo of your idea
Send a photo of the piece you dream of making — within one working day a jeweller will tell you how to make it, how long it will take and how much it will cost. Planning a proposal or a gift for a specific date? Write early: finishing and hallmarking take time.
