We discovered Dejan’s work while looking for a gift for my wife’s maid of honor, and immediately fell in love with his pieces. His work has such idiosyncratic attention to detail! I walked out with a pair of cuff links for myself, as well, and have gotten more than a few compliments on them since. I came back six months later to buy my wife a birthday present, and Dejan’s not only remembered me and what I had purchased before, which were both inexpensive pieces, but recommended items for my wife after remembering her and her tastes. I have since recommended him to friends, and have no doubt we’ll be back again many times.

Shopping for a wedding ring is a tough experience for a guy. I knew my now wife would not be into the bling of a giant rock so I started doing research for more unique rings for her. I learned that Old Town is a great place to shop for antique rings as there are tons of consignment shops and antiques jewelers. I ducked out of work early one day and visited a half a dozen of these antiques stores. I looked at probably 50 rings but none of them struck me as something that would wow my soon to be fiancé. I was ready to head home and was walking back to my car when I remembered the Torpedo factory. I walked in and one of the first shops I saw was Dejan Studio Jewelry. When I approached the glass I saw rings that I knew immediately my girlfriend would love. His work in some ways struck me as very cutting edge and tasteful, but simultaneously medieval which I liked because I felt it liked us somehow to the ancient tradition of marriage. I looked at the rings, talked with Dejan, and then went around the corner to the bar to drink a beer to get the courage up to make the purchase. Went back, spoke more with Dejan — who is a great guy, and the two of us crafted a design for the perfect ring for my now wife. The engagement ring turned out beautifully, and when I proposed my then turned finacee loved it so much she couldn’t stop starting at it. She also got tons of compliments from her friends, co-workers, and strangers. From there, I purchased her wedding ring(also amazing and really complements the engagement ring), my own wedding ring, a beautiful pair of gold earring for my lovely wife. Guys, a coupe of tips: 1. Have a ring with you with you when you propose(see Dejan about this) 2. Choose the ring yourself — I’ve heard about guys letting their girlfriends choose the engagement ring — talk about taking the excitement out of the experience for the girl 3. Give her parents a heads up about your intentions — it will ensure smoother relations for years to come 3. Make sure the proposal is a surprise and do it in a cool place because she will remember that moment for ever. Good luck!

We went to Dejan to get our wedding rings. Because I’ll be wearing it forever, I wanted something timeless, yet I didn’t want anything boring. Dejan’s designs completely fit the bill. He walked my husband and me through all of his styles, explained the pros and cons of each material, and really took time to get to know us and what we wanted. I’m completely thrilled with how they turned out!

We worked with Dejan to create my wedding band earlier this year, and were extremely pleased with the results. He was very accommodating to our requests, and was willing to get things done for us in short periods of time to meet our timing needs, and was in general quite professional and courteous. His work is truly one of a kind, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the final product. We enthusiastically recommend working with Dejan!

Amazing artist and craftsman. We first had our wedding bands custom made and they were exactly what we wanted. My engagement ring is an odd shape and he designed a brilliant band to fit snuggly with it. It was so perfect, I bought 2, one for each side or I can just wear them together without the engagement band. Later I brought in a very thin gold band that was a family heirloom I had worn for 20 years and it was not only too small but thinning over the years. Dejan created a magnificent, wide band from his Spanish Steps series that displays my thing gold band so well with tiny diamonds added to increase the size. I would trust no one else with such a sentimental piece. Whether you want something new or bring new life to something old, Dejan is a gifted artist what exceptional skills who is a joy to work with. I will never need to buy jewelry from anyone else.

Dejan is an extraordinary artist who is able to envision and craft his clients jewelry wishes come true! To date, he has created four amazing engagement rings, five wedding bands and two extraordinary pendants for our family~ all custom made from the highest gems and precious metals. He has also fixed a pair of diamond earrings and two rings superbly~ all at very reasonable cost. Dejan is professional(everything is created on time and perfectly) while being warm, personable and very patient(one custom ring went though several revisions as he tweaked it to meet a bride-to-be’s shifting description.) He truly cares that his work delights his clients. Every interaction with Dejan is easy and wonderful, both in person and over Skype! Truly our lifetime jeweler!

Dejan did such a great job with my rings: engagement and wedding ring. We repurposed old outdated diamonds into a wonderfully crafted design by Dejan. He understood my desire for a rustic look, yet with a touch of glamorous glitz. I get compliments on both of my rings daily. If you want one of a kind design that is creative and unique, this is the place to come. I recommend him 100%.

Wonderful work! We got a beautiful custom made Damascus steel ring from him, and it is just beautiful! He had it made within our wedding timeline, made it custom to my husbands hand, and was very reasonably priced! His work is so organic and unique! We will definitely be coming back to him for our future jewelry needs!
