A goldsmith's workshop trades in weight, purity, and time. Every commission carries a metal reconciliation, every repair a heritage decision, every casting a batch record. Aurelian is the system that keeps all of it defensible — for the client, for the assay office, and for the tax return.
Where it hurts today
You started with 400g of 18k. You ended with 320g of finished pieces and unknown scrap. The client wants the balance in writing.
The client agreed to a simple band. Three fittings later it has become a signet with hand-engraving. Nobody wrote down when the scope changed.
A ring comes in for polishing. Nobody knows whether it was last polished six months or six years ago. The next polish takes too much metal.
What Aurelian gives you
Every input, every output, every gram of scrap. Reconciled to the commission and defensible for assay and tax purposes.
Client brief, agreed price, sign-off milestones, scope-change log. Nothing about the piece drifts without a paper trail.
Every piece submitted for hallmarking with its assay date, mark, and returning date. Full compliance history in one export.
Every piece the workshop has serviced — condition on intake, work performed, metal weight change, condition on delivery. The next visit builds on the last.
How it flows
Client requirements, cost estimate, deposit taken. Scope defined and signed off before metal is committed.
Metal drawn from stock, weighed, and logged against the commission. Every subsequent step reconciles.
Assay submission logged. Return date tracked. Finishing and stone-setting recorded against the piece.
Client receives the piece with a documented provenance record. Future services build on the same file.
Questions
Yes. Aurelian scales from solo goldsmiths to multi-bench workshops. Small workshops use it as a commission and metal ledger; larger workshops layer full CRM on top.
Yes. Scrap is a tracked material with its own lot numbers, weights, and refining returns. Full reconciliation from raw input to finished pieces to refined scrap.
Yes. Every piece can be filtered by submission status and exported for assay office paperwork.
