SHELTER

"I have nothing but wonderful things to say about SHELTER! My husband and I had them design custom wedding rings. They walked us through the whole process and pricing. Everything was transparent and they made sure we were happy at every stage from the design through the fitting. Hope to work with them again in the future and would highly recommend them for custom jewelry or they also have wonderful designs in the store."

"I cannot say enough good things about Shelter and the custom jewelry design team! Magnolia was incredible; she walked me through everything and answered my endless questions. They removed all the stress from the process and ensured the ring was perfect! We cannot wait to start designing our custom wedding bands with this incredible team! 10/10 recommended."

"I love my custom wedding ring that Mallory designed with me! Working with Mallory was a fun and creative experience, and she really heard me throughout our conversations and brainstorming and made my vision come to life. I went into the process not completely knowing what I wanted my wedding ring to look and feel like, and Mallory was patient with me and asked helpful, guiding questions to get us closer to what my vision was. We landed on one design at first, then I had a dream about a totally different design, woke up and emailed Mallory about it, and we pivoted! She was super flexible and responsive, and it made the process feel fun and took the pressure off of me. I am in LOVE with my wedding ring and how it fits with my engagement ring. My engagement ring is an antique family heirloom that was a bit tricky to design a wedding ring around, but Mallory nailed it and made me feel confident throughout the whole experience that she would do so. I would highly recommend Shelter to anyone looking to create a custom jewelry piece, or choosing from one of their beautiful already made selections."

"Couldn’t be happier with our experience at Shelter. My husband and I both designed our wedding bands with Mallory — we love our rings and had a seamless customer experience. We were using some heirloom stones and Mallory created a beautiful design and was awesome to work with. The whole staff is warm and considerate. We will definitely be back for future pieces! I’ve already been recommending Shelter to all my friends in the DMV that are looking for engagement rings or custom work. 100/10!"

"My fiance and I designed my engagement ring together because neither of us knew what I wanted lol. I did know that I would love a ring from Mallory Shelter because I love her style and saw her grow her business from selling at markets to her own store front, which is so cool. I don't live in DC anymore so we did a zoom call with her, she was really helpful and we narrowed it down to 2 ring styles. They then mailed us 2 wax ring renderings so I could pick out which one I wanted. My fiance took over from there and worked with Magnolia on finalizing the details. The turnaround time was exactly what they projected and shipping was quick. I'm completely obsessed with my gorgeous ring! It's even more beautiful than I could have imagined :) Pic from the night we got engaged! I'm also wearing the hammered bracelet I bought from Mallory at a pop up market back in 2017! Timeless pieces, so happy we went to her"
