My wife and I had Mark custom design our wedding bands and found him to be a fantastic jeweler to work with. He spent a great deal of time helping us with everything from properly fitting our rings to answering our many questions about sustainable materials and the proper care of our rings. He also very patiently worked us on the engraving design on our rings He obviously knows his stuff and the finished rings were exactly what we envisioned.

Mark is one of the best jewelers in Portland Oregon. His skills are unparalleled, and he is a pleasure to work with. I treasure my unique wedding ring he made and we've tapped into his jewelry expertise for other projects as well, from re-working an antique family heirloom back to perfection, to setting new stones in old designs. Mark is ethical, kind, and is an expert in his craft, we highly recommend him for any fine jewelry needs. From our experience, he's the best Portland goldsmith in town!

Mark does incredible custom work. He crafted a gorgeous wedding band for my husband for our tenth anniversary. And he has done beautiful repair work on my own rings. Mark really listens. He has integrity and such skill and artistry. If you want what you want, and want it done well, Mark is your man!

Mark is the best. He listened well and helped me get to the the perfect engagement ring and wedding ring combo for our event. Knowing he worked with a local famous engraver many years ago --I also knew of --was a huge plus. His unparalleled attention to detail and craftsmanship is above all else in this business. Try him first and you won't waste you time ignoring the rest!

I adore my wedding set created by Mark. His work is truly one of a kind, drool-inducing! He's a wonderful human, super easy going and a gem to work with. Take a look at what he's put out and see for yourself! If you want something unique, one of a kind and like the idea of knowing the artist who created your piece, get in touch with Mark!
