INSPIRED by CRAFT and CREATIVITY
Handwrought jewelry and accessories designed by Denise Graves that blend metalsmithing technique with precious gems.
Denise Graves, Owner and Designer, Natalie T. Designs
Designing and creating jewelry is Denise’s soul’s work
Always an artist, Denise explored every medium throughout her young life and college, where she earned a degree in fine arts with a concentration in metalsmithing. An apprenticeship with an Italian jeweler later taught her the art of diamond setting.
Today, Denise’s signature feminine, fluid style blends her metalsmithing techniques with precious gemstones to create works of art that are reminiscent of her lifelong love of the ocean.

Denise is never far from the Atlantic seacoast that stretches from Maine to the shores of Cape Cod where she spent time as a child with her grandmother, “Natalie T.” Today, Denise is based in New Hampshire’s beautiful Monadnock Region.
Denise has taught metal smithing classes in various regions of the United States. But she is most creatively fulfilled by exploring and designing at her jewelry bench in her studio.
