If you're looking for custom jewelry in the Devner area, you really have to visit with Nelson Giesecke, who is Object Design Studio. Nelson not only works with jewelry, he also crafts elaborate custom watches, creates all types of custom metal work (he created a custom chess set for my husband which I commissioned as a present for our 25th anniversary), and does restorations as well. While Nelson will put his creativity to work for you, he will also work with you (as closely as you'd like) on any project and translate your ideas into pieces of jewelry/art that are as original as they are stunning. My husband happened upon Object Design when we first landed in Denver over 13 years ago-- and Nelson has become our go-to designer for every and no occasion. (Particularly when I happen upon a loose stone I like and scoop it up with no idea of what I'll do with it.) Just one example-- my father absentmindedly doodles all the time. I took one of the doodles to Nelson, and he created a pin using the design for my mother. She loves it-- and I can't think of anywhere else in Denver where a jeweler would take on that type of project; Nelson jumped at it...
Read moreStarted to research making my Fiancée’s ring for months even going so far as to price equipment out. I was glad I found Nelson before getting in to deep. I spoke with him several times before my Fiancée and I meet with him to discuss materials and design (cut from a tree). Neither of us had any experience with making jewelry but Nelson made sure to explain everything. We starting in the morning and were finished before supper time. Nelson is a very patient teacher and taught us everything we needed to know. This is an experience that we will remember for the rest of our lives. Knowing that we made each other’s rings out of one piece of metal and that they are one of a kind is priceless....
Read moreNelson is awesome! He taught so well and made us feel totally confident in making our wedding bands it was such a cool experience! He starts you out practicing on silver to make a rough draft since it’s easier to work on to hone your skills and then you do the gold, and he keeps working with you to make sure it fits perfect! He even re-set a pair of diamond stud earrings in gold for us super last minute. He does amazing work and he has the coolest projects. He goes above and beyond to make the experience perfect. If you’re thinking of hand crafting your wedding bands together go to Nelson!...
