Hire a jewellery CAD freelancer who knows casting

By Ronak Rawal · 19 October 2026 · 4 min read

Need a jewellery (jewelry) CAD designer but not a full-time hire? You can hire a freelance designer from our studio in India, pay per design, and get files your caster can use. We have worked in jewellery CAD for more than ten years, with offices in Mumbai and Navsari (Surat), and we model in Rhino 3D and Matrix.

What you get

  • CAD models. A production-ready 3D model in .3dm for editing and .stl for printing, built with correct stone seats, prongs and wall thickness. See 3D CAD modelling.
  • Renders. Catalogue-quality KeyShot renders in white, rose and yellow gold, so you or your customer can approve the design before anything is made.
  • 360° views. A rotating view of the piece for your website or a buyer meeting.

How hiring works

  1. Send a sketch or photo. A reference image is enough to start. Add the metal, stone sizes and ring size if you have them.
  2. Get a quote per style. We reply with a clear price for each design, so you know the cost before work starts.
  3. Approve. You see the design and ask for changes until you are happy with it.
  4. Pay per design. You pay for the designs you order. There is no retainer and no minimum.

Pricing

Rates are in US dollars and start per style. The final price depends on how complex the piece is, and we agree it with you first.

  3. Renders. You receive renders and, if you ordered it, a 360° view to review.

Frequently asked questions

Can I hire you for a single design?

Yes. There is no retainer and no minimum order. You can hire us for one ring, one pendant or a full collection, and you pay per design. CAD modelling starts from $15 per style for a simple ring, earring or pendant, and the price is agreed before work starts.

Do you sign an NDA?

We keep your files confidential, we never publish or share a design without your permission, and your designs stay yours. If you need a signed NDA, message us before you send files and we will discuss it.

What do I send you?

A sketch, a photo or a reference image is enough to start. Add the metal, the stone sizes and the ring size, and any limits from your caster, such as minimum wall thickness or prong size. Our guide to a good design brief lists what helps most.

Which software do you use?

We model in Rhino 3D and Matrix and render in KeyShot. These are standard tools in the jewellery industry, so your caster or manufacturer can open the files.

How fast is delivery?

Simple pieces are delivered within 24 hours. Complex pieces take 2 to 3 days. We confirm the timing for your order before we start.

Do you offer bulk pricing?

Yes. If you have a collection or regular work, message us on WhatsApp or email with the number of pieces and the type of work, and we will quote a volume price.
