Enso Jewelers and Engravers is owned and operated by Bryce Dexter and Daniel Gracias. Daniel and Bryce both began their careers at an early age. Daniel, a third-generation goldsmith, began learning his trade while working in his father's jewelry store in Atlanta, GA. Bryce began practicing the trade in high school working at local jewelry stores in the Northern Virginia area. In 2017, the two met while working at the Tiny Jewel Box, a cornerstone of the Washington D.C. jewelry industry. After two years of working closely, both had shared aspirations of owning their own business. In May of 2019, Bryce and Daniel decided to combine their experience and go into business together, creating jewelry for stores both local and abroad. The two jewelers opened Enso at the beginning of 2020.

The word “Enso” refers to a circle used in Japanese calligraphy. The artist creates one fluid, purposeful, circular brushstroke. Once complete, the enso cannot be altered and becomes a one-of-a-kind piece of art representing the skill and experience of the calligrapher. Our belief is that jewelry shares this philosophy. Your custom creation will represent a cherished moment in your life; one only you can experience.
