History
Brent Messer, owner of Facet Foundry Jewelry Studio, knows and loves his work.
As a native of Gastonia he obtained his first appreciation of art from local
art educators, Jim Biggers and Al Harris. He graduated from Appalachian State
University in 1984, with majors in Art Education and Art Marketing. Brent was
introduced to creating jewelry by ASU instructor Dr. Harold Carrin, and primarily
learned the fine craft and art of jewelry making by working with Turkish Master
Jeweler, Sureyya Cam.
Facet Foundry Jewelry Studio was founded on the premise of presenting and
promoting jewelry as an art form. In operation since 1992, the jewelry studio
on South New Hope Road in Gastonia offers artistic and custom creations, fine
jewelry, diamonds and gemstones, designer jewelry, and jewelry repair.
Artist, craftsman, and businessman, Brent has created a business on the foundation
of integrity and trust with custom jewelry design and unique jewelry as its
niche. He and his staff pride themselves on the expertise that they provide,
while offering warm, friendly, dependable and timely service.
“ We want our customers to experience the art of jewelry.”
