What an incredible place! I worked with Sophie to design a custom engagement ring for my fiancée and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I came in with a pretty specific budget in mind, and Sophie was able to fit all that I wanted into that budget and design a simple, modern ring that my fiancée raves about. They bring in diamonds at any price point or style you are looking for and the whole process is as stress free as it could be. I couldn’t recommend Sophie more highly, and my fiancée is obsessed with the final product. Thanks again, Sophie!

I worked directly with Sophie to design a custom engagement ring for my fiancée and could not be more pleased with the process of working with her and how the final ring turned out. I knew that my fiancée wanted a ring that was more unique and creative than your average off-​the-​shelf ring from Kay, and I didn’t want to bust the bank on a «custom» jeweler who essentially lets you choose the components (shank, head, and stone) then hurries you out the door. I also didn’t want to buy a more unique ring from an established boutique jeweler elsewhere in the country that seemed overpriced and impersonal, limiting my design interaction to phone conversations with an assistant and minimal customization at best.
Sophie was recommended to me by several other local small-​scale, creative jewelers who didn’t have experience with precious stones for wedding rings. From the outset she was open to discussing and sketching various nontraditional design possibilities with me, rather than limiting the conversation to her previously established designs. She then proceeded methodically with providing images for conversation, producing a mockup, providing samples of a wide range of options for all components, and discussing the nuances of each decision that was made along the way.
The final price tag for the ring was incredibly affordable given the level of craft and attention to detail that Sophie provided. My fiancée is ecstatic about the character and quality of the ring, and we are eagerly planning to return to Sophie to make both of our wedding bands. I cannot imagine a wedding jeweler scenario more perfectly suited to our tastes and budget, and recommend her services wholeheartedly.

Whether you are looking for an anniversary gift, something for a client, or to treat yourself, this gorgeous multi-​level boutique has an impressive variety of unique jewelry that is refined and elegant. Bonus: its crafted by highly skilled artists. I think the lead designer Sophie Hughes found the sweet in creating beautiful, everyday jewelry.
