Andrew Glassford is an accomplished jewelry designer known for his creative use of gems and precious metals. His designs marry old world and modern aesthetics. Andrew’s obsessive focus on movement and function set him apart from other designers and result in timeless, luxurious pieces that are easy to wear.

Raised in Laredo, Texas, the border culture had a strong influence on Andrew, which is evident is his bold use of color. Andrew is drawn to and inspired by beauty in nature, architecture, vintage pieces and the gems he hand-selects. And while each limited-collection series is imagined and created with its own story, Andrew believes jewelry is intensely personal and when worn, evokes emotion and complement the wearer’s intrinsic beauty and style.

A banker by trade and an artist by birth, Glassford has studied at The Gem Institute of America (GIA) and L’École Van Cleef & Arpels, Paris. He continues to study the people and world around him to inspire, inform and evolve his design collections.
