    Although different artists have many varying formulas for their
    pricing, I would like to share the thought that as a professional
    artist, once one has determined a specific wage that is appropriate
    for your own individual circumstances, that wage should apply to
    almost any activity. The same wage should be pretty much standard for
    all aspects of your work regardless of whether you are designing,
    fabricating, casting, consulting, etc. This approach was the general
    consensus of the group of professional artists attending Alan
    Revere's 'Marketing Designer Jewelry Class' April 1994. Most of the
    jewelry artists I know charge the same labor rates regardless of the
    material being worked. For myself, the only time I charge a higher
    labor rate is for specialty work when it involves setting very large
    and expensive  gemstones. I hope this is helpful. Michael David Sturlin
