Artist's Friends is an unassuming and informal shop that sells unique, handmade jewelry and other curios. The basics of the shop are college student friendly items like silver and vintage pieces. However, it is a perfect place for bespoke jewelry that is not the type of stuff you buy in the mall. The owner is a kindest artisan, a peaceful and wise man, and a masterful metalsmith. He does not have fancy stuff on hand, but if you want something really cool from start to finish, you can plan a piece together. You can bring your own design or a favorite stone, and he can make a one of a kind ring, necklace, or amulet. He has so much information about rocks, meditation, meteorites, and gems. It is a delightful and mystical place to talk, chat, and browse for unique, handmade gifts. The jewelry is all hand made, and you will never see a ring like the one he makes for you.
What a lovely place! Guy, the shop owner was so kind and talked to us so much about art, music and his artistry. He is so talented and puts so much thought and love into each individual piece. I Got two rings but wanted to get so much more. Will definitely come back here whenever I’m back in Milwaukee!

Visiting from out of town and was in a bit of a rush but the gentlemen named Guy was very helpful and I really appreciated his gentle spirit and kind demeanor. I could have stayed all day and chatted with him! Beautiful rings as well. ❤
