About Geoffrey Giles

I create one-of-a-kind and limited-edition jewelry. Working primarily in 100% recycled gold, I hand fabricate each piece myself with no outside help of any kind. My jewelry exemplifies a minimal industrial aesthetic, a combination of bold geometric forms, clean lines, attention to surface detail and an exploration of light play across the various textured surfaces. The most special thing to me about making jewelry is the intimacy that is created between the objects I have made and my clients. My thoughts, made physical, become someone else's to cherish and eventually pass on. That idea inspires me to continually strive for excellence within my craft.
