Mark’s Designs are Awesome!
"We can't say enough good things about Mark! He has been our personal jeweler for many years now. We are always amazed with his deep attention to detail and the quality of his work. We had an idea for what we would like for our wedding rings. Mark listened to us and transformed our ideas into beautiful reality and created unique rings that we continually get complements on. We have come back to him many times for other custom jewelry pieces, including a bracelet that I love to wear every day. Mark made sure the bracelet is very durable as well as beautiful. We have also brought it back to him on occasion for a "check-up," to make sure the clasp is good, the links are still strong, and the charm is polished to a fine shine. It is always clear to see in Mark's smile that he enjoys he work. He has a passion for creating beautiful works of art. We highly recommend Mark for beautiful quality jewelry."

Beautiful
"What gorgeous, intentional work! If you're looking for someone with a passion for custom jewelry, look no further! I went initially for a custom band to fit my engagement ring, but ended up with so much more than that. He was able to incorporate my grandmother's gold into something very, very special. I can't thank him enough for his hard work and his wonderful listening skills. Thank you so much!"

Custom made earrings
"I've known Mark for about 20 years. At least fifteen years ago I decided that I wanted to do something with my grandmother's diamond ring. I loved the original setting but the gold was worn down after so many years of use and I was afraid that I would somehow lose the diamond, even though the prongs were replaced several times throughout the life of the beautiful ring. I wanted to design something that I could wear every day if I wanted to. Throughout the years, I've had several appraisals done for insurance purposes and sought Mark's referral for an appraiser. He also made my current wedding rings, my husband's ring and a sapphire necklace that I wear frequently. I took in Grandma's ring and told him that I wanted to design earrings and set Grandma's stone in one of them.
The problem, of course, was that it would be a slim to none chance that a match existed. The old miners cut was a lost art and the diamond was at least 130 years old. Mark kept the diamond in his safe (better there than in my dresser drawer). Years went by and I received a call from Mark. We'd kept in touch and I referred several people over to him, including our son who had him design and make our daughter-in-laws wedding set. He told me that he found and purchased what would be the closest match to Grandma's diamond. He set out and designed my earrings and they are stunning. I can't say enough about Mark and his unlimited talent."

Amazing Custom Work
"I had a custom ring made by Mark utilizing an untraditionally cut gemstone. He did an amazing job in taking our feedback from the consultation and created and absolute work of art. Mark as since helped repair jewelry that others failed to repair successfully. A true artist and craftsmen."
