Our jewelry store in Connecticut has 5 experienced goldsmiths specializing in personalized jewelry with custom design. The personalized jewelry discussion begins, and custom design ideas are refined. The way we start a custom jewelry design process is through communication with the customer. We ask many questions about likes and dislikes, colors they wear, metal preference, whether the piece will be for every day or special occassions, etc. We encourage our customers to bring photos that represent their thoughts, so that we get an idea of their style preference.

Seeking a medium for her creativity, Toronto-born artist Anne Sportun began making jewellery as a teenager. She deferred her archeological studies to enroll in a jewellery arts programme where she acquired her formal goldsmithing skills. Anne founded her brand with the opening of her first atelier in the late 1980's. This was the beginning of a prolific career which continues to evolve.
