Boston’s Best Jeweler – Custom Jewelry Designs and Engagement Rings for Over 40 Years
Custom Jewelry in Boston
Ed Spencer, jewelry designer and owner of Skylight Jewelers, has been creating custom jewelry in Boston for over 40 years. His original shop featured a skylight which was the inspiration for the business name. That shop was located on the top floor of the jewelers building, just around the corner from where the store is today. Although the store no longer has a view of the stars, if you look up from inside the showroom you might catch a glimpse of our jewelers working in the loft upstairs.
‘Education is unceasing. In the arts, experimenting and risk-taking are the keys to development.’
Spencer’s custom jewelry designs reflect his belief that jewelry is a personal statement about its wearer. The inspiration for a piece might comes from his dreams, or day-to-day reality. He designs each custom engagement ring and piece of fine jewelry three-dimensionally. He builds frontward, backwards, inside and out, keeping in mind the person who will choose and wear the finished jewel.
‘Finely designed jewelry should speak for itself, expressing, as any work of art, an energy of vision and soundness of the artist’s craft.’
Custom Design a Bespoke Ring With Spencer
Boston’s Best Engagement Rings
Spencer is passionate about custom designed and handmade engagement rings and wedding bands. Each one that he creates is a unique opportunity to get to know a couple. He takes great care to work with the individuals to create the perfect expression of their love. Each ring is hand-carved in wax and eventually transformed into metal through a casting technique. In this way our rings are really tiny sculptures with an organic structure and flowing line, rather than an assembly of parts. Spencer will work with you one-on-one to develop a design concept and sculpt it into reality before your eyes. Whether the ring is a surprise or not, he guarantees that she will love it!
Custom Designed Engagement Rings & Wedding Bands
Carved Moonstone Jewelry
Our signature carved moonstones are truly works of art. Each Ceylon moonstone is hand selected for its flawless beauty and luminescence. Spencer hand carves each moonstone ‘face’ with great care. The natural glow within the moonstone brings it to life. He then sculpts the setting in wax before it is cast into gold, platinum, or palladium. Then the stone is set along with any accent gems and the final piece is complete.
