Grades From My Students
Andre & Daniel
“We made our rings with Allison for our wedding and we cannot stop talking about how much we loved the experience. To start, she is 100% safe for LGBTQ+ clients. My husband and I had a lot of trouble finding jewelers that we felt comfortable with until we met Allison. Next, she is an incredible teacher. We did our workshop remotely on Zoom and she coached us through everything and made us both feel comfortable with the process. If you are not able to do an in-person workshop the remote option is just as amazing! We are so thankful that we met Allison and have such a special story to remember and we don't have words to express how much we love our rings.”

“Allison was super responsive and gave a lot of feedback during the planning process before the workshop. On the workshop day, we arrived with coffee ready for us and jumped right into the learning process. Allison is so knowledgeable about metal work and explained things articulately so that us laymen could understand and not feel overwhelmed. Besides that, she’s just a fun person to spend the day with. We all had great conversation and this was definitely the highlight of the whole wedding process. We will be back for an anniversary!”
Kaleo & Paige
“It's terrifying when the love of your life tells you she wants you to ‘make’ her engagement ring, especially when you have zero experience making things with your hands. Working with Allison at Ringed PDX got me through that. Allison knew exactly what questions to ask my partner in order to make sure we were making the perfect ring. And not only is Allison a master at her craft, she's an amazing teacher who guided me step by step through the ring building process. If you're at all nervous about building the perfect ring for your partner, I'd highly recommend Allison because in the end my partner told me, ‘It's exactly what I wanted!”
Molly & Nathan
“Designing a ring for my wife with Allison was an amazing experience. Discussing my ideas and watching the ring come to life – from drawings and molds – up until I put it on my wife’s hand was magical. Allison was open to my ideas and with her vast knowledge was able to guide the process toward a beautiful result.”
