Courtney was an absolute JOY to work with, both professionally and personally. Her eye for detail, openness to trying something new, and genuine excitement for our love made the process of customizing wedding rings not only smooth, but actually fun. As someone who connects with the outdoors both spiritually and scientifically, finding an artist who can flawlessly incorporate natural form as well as accurate topography of my favorite mountain range was a dream. I am deeply grateful for her energy, her dedication to her work, and her artistry. Thank you Courtney, we love you - Hannah + Molly

"On a recent trip to visit my daughter Vermont, we found Courtney and her beautiful jewelry at the Burlington Farmers Market. My daughter asks for nothing, seriously!, but I noticed her admiring the pendants. An avid hiker, she mentioned that Camel's Hump was probably the mountain that she has hiked the most during her time in VT. I grabbed Courtney's card and ordered a pendant as soon as I got home. No reason for the gift except to honor my hardworking child and to support a local artisan. Gorgeously wrapped, arrived quickly and the ordering process was seamless. The pendant is beautiful and her humble reaction to it was priceless. Already thinking about a graduation gift for her next year, UVM '22!"

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!
