One-of-a-kind engagement rings, heirloom redesigns, and meaningful fine jewelry.
Inspired by wild landscapes, meaningful stories, and unique gemstones.
Nested Yellow is a Portland fine jewelry atelier where every ring begins with a conversation and becomes a piece that could belong to no one else.
The Year of the Horse

How we begin
Every custom ring starts with the Design Ceremony — a private session where we explore your ideas, inspirations, gemstones, and symbolism.
From that conversation, I create a design that exists only for you.
It’s where your ring truly begins.
Meet the Designer
I’ve spent nearly two decades designing objects meant to last generations.
My work blends architecture, fine jewelry design, and a deep love of the natural world — wildflowers, flowing water, shifting light across Oregon landscapes.
Each ring begins as a hand-painted design and evolves through careful collaboration into something deeply personal.
Creating a meaningful piece of jewelry is a personal process.
If you feel drawn to the world of Nested Yellow, I would be honored to begin shaping something together.
A Portland Jewelry Atelier
Nested Yellow is located in Portland’s historic West End — a calm, intimate space where ideas are drawn by hand and refined with care.
Clients visit by appointment for private design sessions and gemstone viewings.
The atelier accepts a limited number of custom projects each month to ensure each piece receives the attention it deserves.
Jewelry Care
Try to avoid your jewelry coming into contact with perfumes, skin products and hair products. Remove when exercising, swimming, showering, or sleeping. Once a month soak your ring in warm water and soap. Lightly scrub under the gemstone with a brush and let it air dry. You will be so happy to see it sparkling in the light!
