Never Leave Empty Handed

Stuart Nye Jewelry

Stuart Nye Jewelry is some of the most original and popular jewelry sold today.  Since our beginnings in 1933, we have taken a great deal of pride in duplicating natures designs in beautiful handmade jewelry.  Working in sterling silver, copper, and brass we create over 1500 different pieces.  Jewelry of a quality that only a hand craftsman with a sense of pride in his work can produce, but we try to produce it at a modest price so that ordinary people can own and enjoy it.  This was Stuart Nye's goal.  This is still our goal today.​

Closet Sikeology

The idea for this boutique was born out of frustration with my clothes shopping experience and never finding the clothes that really spoke to my soul and reflected the real me. When shopping in stores and online, I found myself repeatedly frustrated with the inability to find more than 1 or 2 pieces that spoke to me. Tired of not finding my "look" and tired of standing in front of my closet never really LOVING everything in there, gave birth to the idea to curate a "closet" of pieces that I not only love, but that I think others will love too. I believe that what we wear adds to our confidence, empowers us, and reflects our personality. Happy shopping!

All my stuff is wheel thrown high fire stoneware and I stay somewhat true to "the old ways." I make some of my own clay and I make all the glazes here in the shop.  It's almost all functional stoneware art. We need more art everywhere.  It can mend our ailments.

Ems Gems and Bergen Designs

Father and Daughter combine to bring unique hand made art to The Cotton Company.
Bergen Designs has been making custom stone tables, benches, garden charms and welcome stones for close to 20 years using stone quarried by the owner from the Top of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. This Red Flagstone is the hardest in the world and allows for engraving along with custom shaping the slabs into usable tables, benches and garden decor that will last a lifetime. We also use Pine Logs from the forests above 8,000 feet in the Rocky Mountains as bases for the tables to help create the perfect one of a kind piece.
 "Take a Piece of the Mountains Home" is our slogan!
Ems Gems is my daughter Emily's beautiful designed jewelry to help bring creativity to the gallery as well as reflecting some beautiful garden theme designed earrings including hummingbirds, lady bugs, dragonflies, etc. These help compliment the same popular designs used with Bergen Designs Garden Charms, Tables and Welcome Stones.
