Made
one piece at a time.

We work at a single bench in a quiet shop in Georgetown. Every piece is hand-set, hand-finished, and made-to-order. No display cases full of inventory you have to settle for — the only stones in the shop are the ones we cast for you.

Bench-side moments.

They listened, then they sketched, then they built exactly what I had described — better than I knew how to describe it.
