Handmade custom engagement rings & jewelry - Howard County, Maryland
Ellicott City, Maryland, and BeyondProud Designs is the studio of artist Nick Proudfoot - two crafts, one pair of hands.
Every ring is made by hand, from first sketch to finished piece: one-of-a-kind engagement rings, wedding bands and wire-wrapped originals in gold, platinum, silver, titanium and tungsten. Off the bench, Nick turns the same eye to the night sky - fine-art and astrophotography prints from Maryland and beyond. Whether you are designing a ring or reimagining a family heirloom, you work with the maker, start to finish.
The Photography
Fine-art landscape and astrophotography prints, shot and printed by Nick. Star trails, the Milky Way and quiet Maryland skies - statement pieces, ready to frame.
The Maker
