The Craft
True jewelry is engineering disguised as art. It begins with a sketch and ends with a piece that can outlast generations. We explore the bench—the tools, the heat, and the patience required to turn raw metal into an heirloom.
We look past the sparkle to see the structure: the prong settings that hold a gem secure, the milgrain edges applied by hand, and the polish that reveals the metal's soul.
