I
searched
and
searched,
both
locally
and
outside
of
the
state,
for
a
jewelry
designer/goldsmith
who
was
as
committed
to
creating
a
truly
one-of-a-kind
piece
as
I
was.
No
one
compared
to
the
experience
that
Richard
provided.
The
process
of
creating
my
dream
engagement
ring
was
far
above
my
expectations.
During
the
initial
consultation
we
sat
down
together,
and
as
I
explained
my
dream
piece
and
inspirations,
Richard
sketched
out
my
vision,
providing
recommendations
and
options
based
on
his
expertise
and
vast
knowledge
of
modern,
art
decor,
vintage
and
victorian-style
jewelry.
I
had
full
trust
in
his
ability
to
create
a
piece
that
was
intricate
and
detailed,
with
the
high
quality
gold
and
platinum
materials
I
requested.
He
kept
me
informed
and
involved
from
start
to
finish.
We
had
4-5
session
through
each
phase
of
modeling,
casting,
tweaking
and
finalizing
the
ring.
He
was
thorough
in
explaining
his
work,
while
allowing
me
to
be
a
part
of
the
process.
He
created
a
silver
cast,
so
I
could
touch,
feel
and
try
the
ring
on.
This
was
hugely
valuable
as
no
other
jeweler
would
go
through
the
effort
of
creating
a
metal/silver
cast
(some
offer
to
do
a
wax
model,
many
didn’t
even
offer
that).
His
quote
was
very
fair
and
reasonable,
given
the
bespoke
nature
of
his
work.
If
you
are
someone
who
wants
a
truly
customized
piece
and
values
a
hands-on
design
experience,
I
highly
recommend
Richard.
His
passion
and
expertise
is
evident
in
every
piece
of
work
he
creates.
I
was
thrilled
to
work
with
such
an
exception
local
goldsmith.
