Hand Engraving

Create heirloom quality jewelry with personal sentiments, dates or other notations artfully engraved inside rings, on pendants and other jewelry. Hand engraving can go where machines can't reach and do it in a way that is much more beautiful as well as reflective and deeper. Provide an image and Mr. Roettger’s classically trained eyes and hands will create it. Most anything can be done, from fancy lettering, family crests, decorative patterns and borders to realistic portraits of loved ones or pets. We do it all, trophies, baby cups, rings, pendants.

Man's Ring

Custom made jewelry is our specialty. We start by finding out what you like and don't like in jewelry. By compiling a list of preferences and collected images we can make a unique design just for you. Most customers are surprised at how well we put it all together and intuitively understand exactly what they are looking for.

Drawing

We can render your design in either gouache water color actual size or CAD 3D imaging. Though CAD 3D has become state of the art we have found that good old fashioned hand rendering done actual size is still the best way to see what a design will look like. 3D CAD drawings albeit very useful can't convey a sense of size and scale like an actual size drawing in the hand.

Jewelry

Designing jewelry in gold, platinum or silver, we can provide excellent selections of well cut diamonds and colored gemstones at competitive prices. Custom designs are drawn in advance to insure your dream piece is made as you envision. We carry unique handmade jewelry all made in house.
