Humble Beginnings

The evolution of Marc Williams is one of constant growth. You will never find him still or satisfied with his accomplishments. That mindset carries over to his work, continually dedicated to improvement.

From the beginnings of the company Marc has been committed to exploring new expressions as well as a better way to craft his pieces. In attempts to bring you the best work possible Marc never stops expirementing within and outside of the craft. "Through working, we learn" might as well be a shop mantra, and with that in mind the pieces that come from our store have integrity that is uncompromised.

As an artist Marc isn't ashamed or too arragent to say he has much to learn, which is evident in the evolution of his pieces. Looking back through the 30 plus years in the business you can see Marc's growth. Having a mind for mechanics, and an eye for detail, you can be assured that any piece from Marc Williams Goldsmith was created to last. It's in his reluctance to rest and a natural curiosity that Marc will never settle into making you the same old thing. Marc's pursuit to bring you the best will never wear out, nor will his pieces.

At Marc Williams Goldsmith the process of a fine crafted piece of jewelry starts with a spark. Marc's designs are thought through and put on paper, then sculpted in wax. From there each piece is on a path to becoming one of your most prized posessions, either custom or line.

In the process we will describe you can get a better feel for the journey the metal and stones make to becoming a piece of Marc Williams jewelry. Each step is an important element in creating a foundationaly sound piece. Sacrificing in any one of the steps is unacceptable and compromises the integrity of the jewelry. Paying attention to detail during the entire process of creating and manufacturing our pieces is what sets Marc Williams Goldsmith apart from the rest.

We hope letting you see behind the scenes will help you feel more connected to your most beloved pieces.
