At Dejan Studio Jewelry, we turn your story, style, and vision into one-of-a-kind fine jewelry. Whether you are looking for a bespoke engagement ring, personalized anniversary gift, or custom wedding bands, master jeweler Dejan Jovanovic works directly with you from initial sketch to final polish.
All our pieces are unique and 100% customizable. Come to us with specific designs or old jewelry you want to adapt to suit your personal style. We craft each piece to personalized perfection through a tried and tested process.
Bring inspiration, stones, old jewelry, sketches, or simply an idea. We'll discuss what you like, how you'll wear the piece, materials, budget, and possibilities.
We'll develop the concept together, considering proportions, stones, metals, comfort, durability, and the details that make the design personal.
Review detailed 3D renderings and, when appropriate, a physical prototype so you can experience the scale and proportions before approving the final design.
Once approved, your design moves into production using a combination of modern technology and traditional jewelry-making techniques.
We create original artist-made pieces featuring diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, pearls, and other precious gemstones, crafted from 18k, 22k, and 24k gold, platinum, silver, bronze, and stainless steel. Handcrafted using traditional and modern techniques, we offer rings, bracelets, brooches, necklaces, and cuff links, with fully customized options available. Our work has been featured in Vogue, Martha Stewart Weddings, and Washingtonian magazine.
Our inspiration comes from the natural world. We create organically inspired, textured wearable art with subtle textures and combinations of colors that reveal the quality of the metal, creating harmony through the interplay of various elements.

I wholeheartedly recommend working with Dejan for any custom jewelry. He was fantastic to partner with. My fiancé and I wanted do to create very specific pieces with unique artwork and Dejan worked with us every step of the way. He was extremely patient and provided us multiple design ideas for our rings. We will not work with anyone but Dejan for any future jewelry. I cannot recommend him enough!
8 months ago My fiancé and I visited Dejan Jewelers and commissioned his wedding band here. We had been to so many jewelers in the DC area that only had a handful of options for men's bands. Dejan probably has 40+ different styles of men's rings in varieties of fine metals on display in his Torpedo Factory studio with options to customize them all. We were able to modify one of his rings in palladium with rose gold to add a custom sourced Montana sapphire, made to order, in less than a month (ordered May 10, ready June 4). He sent pictures of the sourced stone and 3D rendering of the design before beginning work. Communication was great through the process. It turned out beautifully! I have been following his work for some time now and excited to have our own piece.
Dejan is a master of his craft! My partner of six years worked with him to create the most beautiful ring for our engagement. Having worked in fine jewelry for years, I wanted something unique yet timeless and Dejan more than delivered. I am over the moon! Cannot thank him enough for the time and care he took to create the ring of my dreams!
With our wedding fast approaching and still being new to the area, my wife and I had resigned ourselves to ordering our rings from Etsy. Luckily, a friend recommended that we visit Dejan first before buying anything. We fell in love with his unique, creative designs. He was incredibly easy to work with and after a few discussions of ring styles and stone settings that we liked he was able to quickly envision what we were looking for in our rings. He developed a 3D rendering and showed us several variations of the stones from which we selected the exact ones we wanted. It only took two weeks from conception to completion (during, the Christmas holiday, no less), including a quick resizing to get the perfect fit. Every time we visited the studio we were greeted with a wonderful, joyous smile and a warm, exuberant greeting. I was so in love with all of his jewelry that I also purchased a pair of beautiful earrings to wear with my wedding dress! You can tell Dejan loves every part of his job and takes pride in his creations. We are totally enamored with the wedding rings he designed for us, and will definitely be adding more of Dejan's work to our collection.
Dejan made custom wedding bands from white gold for us and did a phenomenal job! He helped us understand the constraints of the size & design we wanted to get an even better idea made into reality. We couldn't be more pleased with the quality, design and his ability to meet our tight timeline. So many thanks to him and his assistant, Emily, for walking us through the process and keeping us updated along the way.
I had a fantastic experience with Dejan and his studio late last year. He made me three rings: an engagement ring for my partner, and our two wedding bands. I saw the designs on his website and knew he would be able to make my partner's and my vision a reality. Dejan was friendly and the ringmaking process, from design, to stone selection, to build was excellent. He's also transparent and more than fair in pricing. The rings came out excellent and ahead of schedule. Just in time for an end of year proposal. She said yes :)
Dejan and all! The rings continue to be perfect for us both. As you may remember, we were wanting to have matching rings but not certain that we could agree upon a common theme so-to-speak. With your expertise we were able to find rings we both love. Thank you so much! I have included a few photos from the wedding day.
We recently had the pleasure of working with Dejan Jewelry Store to create custom gold wedding rings, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first interaction, everything was super easy and straightforward. Dejan answered all of our questions with patience and expertise. The quality of the custom gold wedding rings we received is absolutely stunning. Despite the high quality, the price was very reasonable, especially considering the speed at which Dejan was able to complete the rings. We were amazed by how quickly our beautiful custom rings were ready and shipped to us. I highly recommend Dejan Jewelry Store for anyone looking for exceptional service, quality, and value. Thank you, Dejan, for making our experience so memorable and enjoyable! We are excited to potentially commission more works from you in the future.
Dejan and his team are a pleasure to work with and create beautiful pieces. We worked with him to create our wedding rings and the process was transparent and fast. We are very pleased with the outcome and look forward to commissioning more pieces in the future!
Dejan and Emily did a fantastic job with my engagement ring. I had my grandmother's engagement ring, which they checked and polished for the proposal. We then returned to get it properly sized. Dejan did beautiful work. Everyone was very friendly, professional, and communicative throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them!
When my boyfriend and I started shopping for engagement rings, I had a very unusual design in mind and after seeing Dejan’s beautiful work, I knew he was the artist we wanted to work with the bring it to life. Dejan worked tirelessly to bring my vision to life and the final product was even better than what I had pictured. Dejan went out of his way to make a prototype of the ring, was incredibly patient when I was indecisive on certain ring details, and worked to accommodate our budget. We are so thrilled about the one of a kind engagement ring and wedding band that Dejan created for us. I highly recommend working with Dejan and his team if you’re looking for a ring that stands out from the rest!
We purchased both the engagement ring and our wedding bands at Dejan Studio Jewelry and couldn't be happier! The selection is incredibly unique and Dejan's experience in the industry helped us pick out something meaningful to each of us. Not only did our rings fit perfectly from the start, but Dejan was very accommodating to our wedding timeline and even delivered earlier than promised. We highly recommend this artisan for unique and unconventional jewelry for any occasion!
my wedding ring was his design and he customized it and took my requests into account to craft the perfect ring. He has so many different designs for men and women, I probably could have walked out of the shop with 5 rings I was happy with, but the custom made ring is perfect for me. He is also friendly and collaborative.
We started our search at a few other places, but the selection always felt limited—too traditional, too expected, nothing that really felt like me. Then we walked into Dejan’s shop, and the difference was immediate. He has a huge selection of distinctive, one-of-a-kind pieces that actually spark inspiration. It didn’t take long before we decided to design something entirely our own. We created my wedding ring with a sapphire, and Dejan was incredibly patient and helpful through every step. As the ring was being made, I couldn’t help but feel a little anxious—wondering if it would turn out the way I’d imagined. But the moment Dejan pulled it from the drawer, all my worries disappeared. It was perfect. Absolutely perfect. It’s now tucked safely in its box, and I’m doing my best not to sneak it out before the wedding. I’ll post a photo after the big day
Dejan created the most beautiful engagement ring for us! He understood what we were looking for as soon as we met, even better than we could articulate ourselves. It was an absolute delight to work with him, and he executed our vision perfectly. We will continue to recommend him to everyone we know, and we can't wait to go back for our wedding bands!
Beautiful designs, excellent craftsmanship, and easy and supportive to work with. Dejan worked completely custom to fuse my ring with two other parts and design a new ring to fit together with my fiancee's engagement ring. Helped us every step of the process and did it quickly, with excellent quality, and a great price! If I ever need to get another ring or jewelry I plan to return!
Going to Dejan Jewelry was a great experience. They actually created my ring quicker than I expected and they were excellent when it came to communication, price expectations, timelines. 3D sketches of the ring is a nice touch. Would recommend them to anyone in the DMV area.
My fiancée and I were looking for a custom jeweler for our engagement / wedding rings, and boy, are we glad to have come across Dejan Jevanovic. We are so appreciative of his work and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a meaningful and beautifully crafted piece of jewelry. We came in with a rough idea of what we wanted, and Dejan and his than not only listened carefully but also provided all of the guidance to make everything come together seamlessly. From start to finish, Dejan and his team went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. The whole process was smooth, professional, and filled with personal touches. Every aspect of the rings was crafted with precision, and the design captures everything we envisioned. His craftsmanship is truly top-tier, and we will cherish these rings forever. Thank you to Dejan, Emily, and the whole team for taking the time to make the whole experience unforgettable!
Working with Dejan was such a wonderful experience! Dejan is enthusiastic, passionate, creative, personable, and so incredibly talented. My fiancé and I went to the studio several times. We were inexperienced with fine jewelry and indecisive. Initially Ivan helped us and had me try on a ring I never thought would be my style but ended up being our inspiration. Dejan was patient with us and made the custom engagement ring process so much fun! For instance, when we decided the shape of diamond but didn’t know if we wanted to go natural or lab grown, Dejan displayed six similar stones and had us blindly select our favorite so we were not swayed by quality, type, size, etc. This helped us select the stone we truly wanted. We brought in pictures of what setting we envisioned. For weeks, Dejan would provide us renderings and wax models and we would refine our design and choices. Sometimes there was a gap in time between refining and seeing the next product BUT when we saw the quality of the renderings and models, we very much understood why. Me and my fiancé also had no timeline for when we wanted the ring completed which Dejan very openly discussed and checked in with us about. The process was smooth and collaborative. The ring holds even more significance knowing we were part of its creation. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the process and how fair and reasonable it was to commission Dejan’s incredible work. Pictures below! We visited Dejan right after we got engaged by the river. He holds a special place in our hearts! Thank you so much Dejan and team!
Dejan was able to design a ring that met all my expectations and my fiancee loved the final result. She has been asked multiple times if the ring is an antique (which it is not.) The craftsmanship is amazing and her ring is truly one of a kind. He was also able to find a better price on a lab grown stone than I found online that was also bigger and more clear. We will be using him for our wedding bands and other jewelry needs moving forward.
Dejan is great! We went to him for our custom matching wedding bands and had it done in 2 weeks! We designed 2 mobius strip rings in software and 3d printed it ahead of time to ensure we liked it, but we were unsure if it was easy or realistic to actually make out of platinum. In person he measured everything, suggested a slight thickness change, but otherwise assured us the rings were durable (even though it had little thickness at parts). We sent him the .stl files of the rings and 2 weeks later he said it was done already! The price was comprable to a similar material & size ring elsewhere online, but this way we could make it exactly how we wanted. Thanks Dejan!
Dejan created a completely stunning custom wedding band to match my engagement ring. He worked quickly, professionally, and was incredibly easy to work with. Cannot recommend him enough!!
Had a great experience from start to finish with Dejan Studio! My fiance and I came in to design my engagement ring with very little idea of what we wanted. Emily helped us try on different options in store and ultimately design such a beautiful custom ring. They even were able to complete the ring before originally planned so my fiance could bring the ring on an upcoming trip for a surprise proposal. We also both designed our wedding bands with them and LOVE how they turned out - also ahead of schedule. Would absolutely recommend if you want something unique and local to ALX.
