Custom Silver and Diamond Fan Earrings

I'm so excited to share these custom, one-of-a-kind sterling silver earrings that I made for Anita's birthday last month. These are studded with itty bitty round brilliant diamonds that are just so sparkly!What's even more special about this project is the fact that I made these earrings match the custom monogram pendant I designed for Anita last year. Perks of having a custom jeweler!Do you have a special gift in mind for someone else, or even yourself? Drop me a line ASAP. There are less than three months until Christmas, and custom projects are first come, first served!

I Made Myself a Push Present!

I made myself a push present! This is an 18kt yellow gold ring with emerald, diamond and tanzanite (birthstones for my husband, myself, and our baby, Michael) set in bezels. I like to think of these as 'dancing' bezels. What would you call this style? Giving birth seemed like the perfect occasion to treat myself to a new piece of jewelry. I designed this ring so that it would be easy to add more bezels if we happen to have more children in the future. If you want to make a custom push present for yourself or your significant other,...

Her double chevron wedding ring subtly alludes to the mountains, while his ring has a scenic treeline design. Lovely, right? If you're looking for a unique engagement ring, or you want to take gemstones you already have and make a special, new piece of jewelry for yourself,...

Engraved Memorial Locket

My client's father passed away earlier this year. He wanted a piece of custom jewelry to give to his mother; a keepsake to keep her late husband close to her heart. We decided on a 14kt gold-filled locket with a delicate floral pattern on the front. Inside, two small, personal photographs fit. On the back, I engraved the words "Arise, my beloved, and come". Jewelry is almost always used to signify a major life event: births, birthdays, holidays, marriages, anniversaries, deaths. Jewelry speaks volumes, even when you don't have the words to voice your emotions. And it keeps our loved...

Custom 1.51ct Pear Halo Engagement Ring

I made this pear halo engagement ring (with a 1.51ct center diamond!) in November for a holiday proposal. The halo is set with a sparkly split prong setting, and the shank has pavé diamonds to match. My customer provided a few images that he knew his girlfriend liked, and we created this classic engagement ring in just a few weeks. If you want a unique, custom engagement ring, send me a message! I'd love to help you create the ring of your dreams.
