Custom Deluxe is a professionally equipped jewelry studio and teaching space in Portland, OR. The studio is run by full time jeweler and artist, Lindsey Snell. Students have a unique opportunity to learn fundamentals inside a space designed to serve a practicing artist and designer.

 
I believe that the legacy of jewelry making lives on in a commitment to skill-building, sharing knowledge, and open mentorship. I built this space for aspiring jewelry makers and metalsmiths like you to discover your creative voice and hone your craft.”
— Lindsey Snell
 

Exploring metalworking should not break the bank and by working collaboratively in a shared space with shared tools, Lindsey aims to make this age old craft approachable for a diverse group of makers.

 

Contemporary craft sits at the nexus of old and new and Custom Deluxe was founded as a communal space to serve just that.

We all know from experience that new technology is best when paired with the skills and tools that have been around forever. Don’t be surprised that Lindsey keeps her jeweler’s saw, hand drill, and 3D printer in one studio. Join a class to discover why making jewelry continues to be one of the oldest art forms mankind continues to explore.
