CounterSketch review
A customer-facing design tool with deep jewelry libraries and Stuller production workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
CounterSketch is interactive 3D jewelry design software from Gemvision, a Stuller company. It is built for jewelers, retail store teams, and showrooms that want customers to participate in guided jewelry customization. Users can browse more than 2,500 styles, adjust designs in real time, add components through Freehand, select gemstones and diamonds, view pricing, and produce photorealistic renders. Its focus is customer-led retail design rather than general-purpose jewelry modeling.
The product’s strongest fit is its combination of customization and commerce. Real-time pricing helps retail teams discuss design changes while customers make decisions, while gemstone selection and price estimates connect the creative process to a purchase conversation. The library covers bridal, fashion rings, pendants, gemstones, and other jewelry categories. The CounterSketch without Rhinoceros and CounterSketch with Rhinoceros plans each include one CounterSketch license and one-year CounterSketch Membership. A documented 15-day trial provides an evaluation path, but there is no free plan.
CounterSketch also connects design work to the Stuller ecosystem. Integrations include Stuller production and CAD/CAM Services, Stuller Diamonds, Stuller gemstones, and ever&ever prototype samples. Designs can be submitted for Stuller manufacturing, and the 3D-printing workflow supports prototypes. This makes the product particularly relevant to retailers whose production process already aligns with Stuller. It runs on Windows and macOS as desktop software, so teams seeking a browser-based or platform-neutral workflow should consider alternatives. Choose CounterSketch for guided, customer-facing customization tied to rendering, pricing, and Stuller fulfillment; choose another tool for broader standalone modeling or a free entry tier.
