FORGINGMETALINTO MEANING
the best engagement and wedding
rings express a uniquely personal
narrative– each one should be as
singular as the individual who wears
it. i transform stories into gems and
metal, creating custom jewelry for
those who value the meaning behind
the design.
i initiate the creative process
with discussions about the clients’
style and aspirations, and carefully
consider every detail in order to
realize their aims. fostering a spirit
of collaboration, i encourage people
to follow their vision, rather than
imposing my own.
evolution of the design begins with
mood boards and ends with detailed
renderings that perfectly depict the
final ring. redesigning and recycling
old jewelry are my specialties—
balancing pragmatism and originality,
i never lose sight of the individual’s
fantasy.
i share images of the ring through
all stages of its production, from
sketches to wax fabrication to final
polish. the transparent, candid
process eliminates any anxiety or
unexpected results, ensuring an
intimate and joyful experience from
beginning to end.
bridal rings should be made one at a
time, not mass-produced in a remote
factory. from fabrication, to setting,
to engraving, every piece is entirely
and expertly crafted by hand in san
francisco. no two are exactly alike,
ensuring that each is unique and
created just for you.
encouraging the use of recycled
gems and metals, i am committed to
high-quality, responsibly sourced
materials. i believe that few gestures
could be more meaningful than an
old family diamond that has been
reclaimed and revitalized for a new
generation.
whether reusing your own gems or
starting from scratch, my bridal
jewelry is all made-to-order. i create
your ring by tailoring it to your style,
budget, and desires. rings include
previous commissions that may inspire
you, and can be customized to your
specifications. contact me to start
the conversation.
