Daniel Wisner has been designing and producing jewelry and fine objects since he was a child. His work spans collections from fashion to high jewelry on both coasts, including Temple St. Clair, Foundrae, Alexis Bittar, Kate Spade, Bario Neal, The One I Love, and Good Art. As a designer and creative director, he has created pieces for some of the world’s leading jewelry houses, shaping every stage from concept to completion. He also served as the inaugural Jewelry Specialist for Joopiter, Pharrell Williams’ luxury auction platform, and is currently Head of Design at Fiat Lux.
Training as a silversmith from the age of ten, nearly everything was done by hand in a workshop with a lone flex shaft as the single piece of machinery (that no one was permitted to use). Instead, his years as an apprentice were spent mastering traditional craft: soldering, sanding, and filing surfaces to unblemished perfection. Those formative years are still the core of his work, with an exacting eye for perfection that is present in every piece of jewelry he touches.
After earning a BFA in Fine Metals at Kutztown University, he completed a Design & Technology degree from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). Drawing from Daniel’s fluidity in enameling, fine metalsmithing, and metal spinning, he worked alongside his brother for over a decade, whose background in theology and alchemy informed their shared vision to create fine jewelry collections comprised of visually dense, historically accurate objects steeped in purpose and thought.
Daniel’s pieces continue from that early foundation of mysticism and exacting craftsmanship, produced only with recycled metals, reclaimed diamonds, and ethically sourced gemstones.
