The Process

Travis the jeweler teaches jewelry school.

Creation

Travis Martin is proud to have his hands involved in every aspect of the jewelry creation process. He has extensive experience with all varieties of gold fabrication and sculptural wax carving. All of the wax work and fabrication is done by hand without the aid of computers or 3D printers. All casting is done in house as is all stone settings.. The goal is to be self sufficient at all times, to master every aspect of Goldsmithing and know it intimately. In doing so Travis believes he is learning not only skills dealing with precious stones and metals but learning about himself and his creative process, which relates directly with the evolution and growth of the soul.

Design

Each piece of art made is completely original and designed by Travis Martin himself. There is no design outsourcing, no computer aided drafting, quite simply each piece is the brain child of the goldsmith who is very proud to also be able to offer all gold smithing services in house. Travis is heavily inspired by the ever evolving world around him, from the organic structures and forms found in nature to the mechanical and technological aspects of the modern world we are all a part of.

Final Product

In the end, the client is handed a piece of wearable art that is quite simply as intricate and special as they are. Something that contains the time and energy of both the Earth and the Goldsmith. An intricate combination of both man and nature. Jewelry has always been and always will be a timeless investment which has value that extends beyond monetary means. This new piece of art will be no different, it will become an heirloom and will eventually be considered a unique artifact from our time period.
