After we first met in the summer of 2003, Greg and I opened a men's designer clothing & accessory store inspired by boutiques I visited while living in Germany. The store, Underguy, happened to be in a mixed facility that housed a small machine shop which produced steel parts for the oil and gas industry. Having spent the last 12 years as an over-the-road truck driver, Greg's familiarity with machinery and knowledge of tools gave him an idea:

You see, I had purchased a steel ring a few days before moving back to the States. Using that ring as a guide, Greg purchased a small manual lathe and used scraps from the machine shop next door to create his very first pieces of jewelry. And so Spexton was born.

The 'Spexton' label was actually the formal name of our company long before we ever had the desire to create jewelry. We liked the way it sounded, and it was completely unique to us, so it just seemed to work very well. The moment Greg made his first bracelet, we knew immediately what the definition and future of Spexton would become.

Greg is the principal machinist, overseeing all production and new designs. Thanks to Greg's talent, what began as a small bracelet collection is now a broad and highly innovative collection of handcrafted jewelry. Greg is constantly looking for new techniques and materials and is very motivated by the creative process.

I, Nate, am responsible for sales, creative-advertising, and managing the Spexton store where we offer our shoppers custom overnight rings, bracelets, and neckwear. I also do all of the sanding and polishing. I love getting an immaculate, glossy sheen on the inside of the steel rings--they look great and feel incredible. Oh and I take the photos of the jewelry as well and I find it EXTREMELY difficult because I have no training whatsoever so if anybody has any tips or tricks, PLEASE, let me know!

This past February, custom Spexton cuffs were featured at New York Fashion week on the Carmen Marc Valvo runway. View the runway photos here.

The Spexton store and design studio are located in the evolving East Village of Downtown Tulsa, Oklahoma. We're open daily from Noon to 7PM @ 823 E 3rd Street on the corner of 3rd and Lansing.

Jewelry is a very sacred thing for so many people. Being able to create the symbol for someone's memories, or life event, or self-expression—it really is an honor—that is the true joy of what we do. Our desire is to be the world's definitive handcrafted hard metal jewelry collection.
