Description

An unparalleled view of the Rocky Mountains is what inspires jewelry designer and goldsmith Scott Keating to produce award-winning designs at his workshop and studio. An avid outdoorsman and skier, Keating says he is comfortable working in "nature's backyard" and to move anywhere else would compromise the quality of his life and work. That's why Keating and his wife, sculptor Nancy Lovendahl, operated a custom design shop in Aspen for eight years, attracting loyal clientele from jet-set celebrities such as Jack Nicholson, Jimmy Buffett, Glen Frey, Kate Jackson, Sonny Bono and Jill St. John.A native of Chicago, Keating studied design and engineering at the University of Illinois under the late master goldsmith Robert Von Neuman. It was there he met his wife. The couple moved to Aspen in 1973 where Scott's early career started by designing and making silver jewelry at his one showcase shop. As the years passed and Scott's talents expanded, soon he was working in only precious stones and gold. By 1978, he established his own design salon.Those years of making one-of-a-kind custom pieces evolved into a strong foundation of designs. Keating became inspired to put them together to create a signature collection. He reorganized his business to become a wholesale venture to focus on this collection.
