I am always on the lookout for interesting cufflinks and so I reached out to Courtney to see if she could make a pair for me based on the Maroon Bells, Colorado mountains that I often visited with my father when I was a child. She quickly came up with three different options for me to choose from. Originally I had hoped for gold cufflinks but the price of gold had climbed so much -- surprising both of us when she got the quote -- that it didn't make sense so I settled for satin sterling silver. They arrived the other day and are simply gorgeous. It's a joy to wear them. I really had a great experience working with Courtney and highly recommend her work.

I have been searching for the perfect engagement rings for my partner and I to match our outdoor-loving spirit. Finding something unique, local, and affordable was very important to us. After moving to Vermont, I stumbled upon Courtney’s website and immediately knew her style was the answer. I reached out to Courtney and we set up an in person meeting soon after to talk through ideas and take a look at some of her samples. Her easy-going nature and expertise during the consultation assured me this was the right choice! She listened to what was important to my partner and I, my vision for the engagement, and the meaning behind the moment to help me pick out the perfect design (the Green Mountain ridge line) and materials for two rings (polished and matte finishes to complement each other). After making the final selection, I got the rings delivered soon after and could not have been happier with the stunning outcome! I ended up finding the perfect moment to propose to my girlfriend on a muddy gravel ride at our favorite vista at sunset with Camel’s Hump in the background (and on the silhouette of our rings!). The entire process working with Courtney was so easy and assuring every step of the way. I would not hesitate to recommend her for all your jewelry needs!

I found Courtney on Instagram, and I fell in love with the way her jewelry celebrates place. I messaged her to ask about having a necklace made that would reflect the almost daily hikes I take with my beloved husky. She was enthusiastic about the project and worked with me to map out the necklace, including locations where I have seen animals such as bear, beaver, deer, and birds such as owls and herons. When I received the necklace, I immediately put it on and wore it nearly every day. It is so special to me! Here's where you know you're working with a fabulous professional. When I caught the necklace in something and broke it (luckily, the way she had strung the stones meant I didn't lose any), she responded right away to send it to her for repair. It's on its way back to me, and I cannot wait to wear it again. If you would like a unique, place-based piece of jewelry to commemorate a location that is meaningful to you, I highly recommend working with Courtney Reckord!
