Forged to be worn for Generations

We reject prefabricated stock bands because the human finger is not perfectly round, and neither are our rings. These are not simple round bands made in mass. Each ring is skillfully made to fit its stone and its wearer.

Every piece in this gallery is handmade by Carrie Armstrong or Ali Lee, with a Karl Lee design in the mix now and then. Hand forged, one at a time. Perfect imperfection.

We stand by our work. Something wrong, we fix it. Need a fresh polish or texture, send it home to us. Made to be worn and endure for generations.

SOMETHING YOU LOVE BUT NEED A DIFFERENT SIZE?

No two are alike. If one speaks to you, tell us. We will find a similar stone and make one like it, by hand, in your size. Most of our custom work starts exactly this way.

OLD GOLD AND GEMSTONES?

We often renew inherited or unworn gold and stones into a new piece you'll want to wear, made in our style. We do not copy other makers.
