Fuse (verb): join or blend to form a single entity.

We are very excited to share the second fall edition of our digitally published magazine. We created this to celebrate our passion for jewelry For the way it brings people together, solidifies a memory, or pays tribute to family and personal milestones.

Happy Fall! We hope you had a wonderful summer and are ready for football season, fall fashion, and cooler weather Our custom jewelry shop, also known as Studio W&H, has created an Engagement Collection this summer and the pieces are all ready to wear. Read below to learn the essence of curating this collection and the craftsmanship behind all of our designs.

As always, we love connecting you with our designers We recently hosted Lika Behar and her collection for Couture & Cocktails, which had a great turnout!

We’re looking forward to the upcoming holiday season and the many fun events we have planned. We can’t wait to see you

A Message from Mark: What a long strange trip it’s been Our remodel over this last year has been a journey of passion for what we do and patience to build the best showroom and jewelers’ workshop for our customers and our staff We made it and it’s been worth it!

We strive for market leading hospitality with our curated collection of jewelry and featured timepieces; each with unique brand experiences to celebrate their stories This fall, we will host several designer events and one truly special appearance from Italy as we welcome Marco Bicego; one of only ten store visits in the United States Marco is a talented, kind, and thoughtful person you would want to say hello to, share the love and meaningfulness of jewelry with, and see his private collection

As we create more connections and fuse our passion for celebrating life with each of you, we look forward to sharing our hospitality in our newly expanded store; built with gratitude towards our wonderful clients who share this trip called life with us

Studio W&H Engagement Collection

Studio W&H encompasses custom design and jewelry repairs as it is, a collaboration of two jewelers, precious material, a bench, and a combined 30 years of experience.

The value behind the craftsmanship and design comes from our jewelers influences, time tested techniques, and handcrafted trial and error.

After speaking with our jewelers, it was clear that their custom work is made to last. With decades of jewelry repair experience, a complete understanding of what designs work and which don't, Studio W&H demonstrates an appreciation for quality design

Todd delivers craftsmanship with a love for traditional techniques that include all primary gemstone setting styles, hand engraving, and pave styles. He enjoys using celestial inspiration and integrating them with natural design and contemporary fashion. His influence for our collection strings from his interest in outer space. This aligns well with our second bench jeweler, Claire.

Claire's inspiration sparks from vintage antique elements and integrating them with modern styles. She used the word “heirloom” when referencing Studio W&H’s quality. They unite their talents and artistry to grow our studio designs and deliver craftsmanship in everything we create.

Todd and Claire strive for our jewelry to be the best and most wearable for our customers Studio W&H is officially introducing their very own engagement collection

Made for our Colorado couples, our collection consists of styles that will appeal to all aesthetics and complement each individual.

Curating a collection involves multiple people working together. Our experienced manager and design team are collaborating to create new and relevant styles inspired by classic vintage rings and their timeless details. Miranda, our engagement specialist, utilizes the premium elements of trends that we believe will complement not only your engagement style, but your future jewelry wardrobe Miranda believes "the key to designing with trends is to incorporate the components that can be worn daily and for years to come."

Studio W&H Engagement Collection is now available in the case and online. We hope we sparked your interest in being part of our engagement stories.
