Hi, my name is Esla!
I'm the owner, designer and maker here at Narrow-Gauge Designs and I create both rustic and modern, minimalist designs inspired by my love of history and architectural details.
From Frontier Minimalism to Victorian Maximalism - I love it all and am drawn to create pieces as souvenirs - reminders of the beautiful craftsmanship and color of the era.
I pride myself on a personalized experience, customized sizing and design. No two pieces of jewelry are alike and as I love to say, especially about my bracelets "everyone gets a different view."
Thank you for visiting my shop!

Animas Forks, Colorado
Tucked away in the San Juan Mountains above Silverton, Colorado are the beautiful and peaceful remnants of Animas Forks. Settled in 1873 and a ghost town by the 1920's, a visit to this historic settlement will surely spark your interest. Looking at the bracelet and this photo alone, are you able to see the similarities?

Quality
I'm sure you've heard the saying "They just don't make things like they used to." Well, we believe you won't say that about us. No "run of the mill" items here. NGD Jewelry is made by hand, one-by-one, and looked after by a perfectionist and overthinker. Mighty fine qualities that ensure your jewelry is MADE LIKE THE GOOD OL' DAYS.

Noteworthy Design
Each piece of handcrafted jewelry is the result of a daydream or a moment of inspiration. Sometimes it is even a collaboration between you, the wearer, and fulfills your vision. Our jewelry is either one-of-a-kind or part of a small, curated collection that has its own era.
