stone options & sourcing
Stone selection is a meaningful part of the custom process — and one of West of Fourth’s core specialties. Rather than limiting clients to a small in-store selection, stones are sourced intentionally based on design, setting, and personal preference, with clear guidance throughout.
Clients are supported through the differences between stones with clarity and education, so every choice feels informed and confident.
Diamonds
Natural and lab-grown diamonds in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and qualities. Unique cuts are available, including antique cuts as well as distinctive modern cuts such as movals and step-cut marquise.
Coloured Gemstones
Sapphires (including Montana sapphires), spinel, emerald, and other fine coloured gemstones selected for colour, character, and individuality.
Alternative Stones
Salt-and-pepper diamonds, black diamonds, and other non-traditional options for clients seeking something distinctive.
Existing or Heirloom Stones
Assessment and thoughtful reuse of stones you already own, incorporated into a new design.
West of Fourth is led by Melissa Mitchell, a Calgary-based custom jewellery designer with over a decade of experience in bespoke design and gemstone sourcing. Melissa holds Graduate Diamonds, Coloured Stones, and Applied Jewellery Professional (AJP) diplomas from the Gemological Institute of America.
Each project is guided personally from consultation through completion, ensuring a consistent, thoughtful experience from start to finish.
