"I have used Denver Gem Cutting for over 30 years. Denton's work has always surpassed my expectations."

"Denton has the qualities one seeks for lapidary projects, whether those projects require a lot of communication and collaboration, or are simple and straightforward."
I have worked with Denton on a number of pieces. Primarily, these projects have been highly technical in nature. His work has always been excellent; and he has the ability to troubleshoot in ways that are a blessing to a designer who does not have an extraordinary knowledge of lapidary arts. As a result, his ability to teach opens a designer's imagination to projects that "could be."

"Any jewelry designer in the world would be fortunate to have Denton Anderson do their gem cutting. His expertise is only topped by the pleasure it is to know and work with him."

"We have a high end retail jewelry store in a resort community and deal extensively in costly antique and estate jewels in which carved stones of all description play a role."
"We have also known and patronized Denton Anderson's Denver Gem Cutting Company for the last 30 years and in that time we have had to ask Denton to do some very difficult assignments like recreate a pocket watch case in rock crystal, recreate and etch cloud forms in moonstone and of course carve untreated ruby, sapphire and emerald."
"Along the way, Denton has had to make new tools to achieve the levels of perfection that would have eluded 99.99% of others to whom such assignments would have been given. Always he has achieved outstanding levels of artistry and craftsmanship."
"If we turned back the clock today to the year 1910 with Louis Cartier looking to staff his American Workshop to support his nascent New York operation I know that along with the young Oscar Heyman, Louis would target Denton and Denver Gem Cutting Co.."

"I've worked with Denton Anderson for over twenty years and have always respected his masterful cutting abilities. He is particularly adept with stars and catseyes, and has worked on some of my largest and best gems, including blue star sapphires over 200cts. I am pleased to recommend Denton to anyone looking for the artist's touch to get the most out of their gem material."
