Shape and mm filters, jeweler price lists and cutting quotes

$999 Installed and configured

A turquoise collector wants Royston with good matrix, a jeweler needs a 30x40 oval to fit a bezel she already soldered and a hobbyist just wants a slab of agate to practice on. All three are shopping the same catalog and BigCommerce can sort it for each of them, using custom fields for material, locality, shape and millimeter size that feed the filters on every category page. Jewelers can log in to a customer group with their own pricing on calibrated stones. Foxco builds a custom lapidary BigCommerce theme with those filters, one-of-a-kind listings with true-scale photos, rough and slab categories and a custom cutting request. It's $999 installed on your BigCommerce store and configured.

Every stone a few clicks from the right buyer.

Lapidary theme questions

Do I get a template or my own theme?

Your own custom BigCommerce theme. Foxco starts from its lapidary framework and builds it out with your brand, your stones and the pages your buyers use.

How quickly can it be ready?

Usually within 7-10 days once your logo, photos and content are in. Rush jobs depend on our bandwidth.

Can jewelers buy calibrated stones at trade prices?

Yes. We set up a jeweler customer group with its own price list and quantity pricing on calibrated sizes and matched sets. Trade quotes through BigCommerce apps can be added as a custom project.

Can I load hundreds of stones at once?

Yes. BigCommerce bulk product imports take a spreadsheet with dimensions, carat weight and material, so a big batch of cabs goes in at once. Your BigCommerce plan and any paid apps are billed by BigCommerce and the app makers, separate from the $999.

Three buyers with three different questions is an ordinary day for a cutter and a catalog that only scrolls in one long line makes every one of them work harder than they should.

Filters built from your stones

Each stone carries custom fields for material, locality, shape, length and width in millimeters and carat weight and those fields become filters on every category page. One-of-a-kind cabs and faceted stones list with a quantity of one, so the listing closes when it sells and nobody ends up fighting over the same piece.

Jewelers on their own price list

Working jewelers join a customer group with trade pricing on calibrated sizes, along with quantity pricing when they buy a matched set of a dozen. Foxco adds a trade page explaining how matching works and how long custom calibrated runs take, which answers the questions that usually arrive in long emails.

Rough, slabs and custom cutting

Rough and slabs sell by weight with options for quarter, half and full pound, each with its locality listed. A custom cutting request takes photos of a customer's own rough with the shape and size they want, so you can quote before it ships. Gift certificates cover the rockhound in the family.

Cut stones that land in the right setting.
