John Atencio is thrilled to announce the opening of his newest boutique in the heart of Denver’s historic Larimer Square. This new store is not just a location; it's a vibrant space that perfectly encapsulates the essence of the John Atencio brand. With a fresh, modern design, the new boutique is three times the size of the previous store, offering an even more immersive shopping experience.
Colorado’s premier jewelry designer, John Atencio brings over 48 years of artistry and experience to this iconic location. His new boutique provides the perfect setting to explore John’s stunning collections in a sleek and relaxed atmosphere.
A Historical Gem in Larimer Square
Focusing heavily on engagement rings and bridal jewelry, John’s new store is nestled in the vintage brick buildings of Larimer Square, Denver's oldest and most historic block. Established in the 1860s, Larimer Square is renowned for its Victorian architecture and vibrant cultural scene. The area became a historic district in 1971, preserving its distinctive charm while evolving into a premier destination for shopping, dining, and entertainment.
Larimer Square offers an array of boutiques, eateries, and entertainment venues, making it the perfect backdrop for John Atencio’s artistry. As you browse his collections, you can soak in the rich history and lively ambiance of this storied neighborhood.
From fashion to restaurants and nightlife, there’s always something to experience in Larimer Square. Whether you’re here for a day of shopping or an evening of dining and people-watching, the area’s vibrant culture will surely captivate you.
"Returning to Larimer Square feels like a homecoming for our brand," said John Atencio. "The restoration of this iconic block has given us the opportunity to create a larger, more inviting space that truly reflects our commitment to design, quality, and craftsmanship. We are thrilled to offer our customers a sleek and comfortable shopping experience in a setting that seamlessly blends historic charm with our modern aesthetic."
John Atencio was originally established in Larimer Square for 40 years, up until around late 2022 when he closed the store in the face of the major Larimer renovation and restoration of the block. Now, he’s back with a bigger and better space, ready to welcome customers with an enhanced focus on bridal jewelry. This homecoming marks a significant milestone for the brand, allowing him to reconnect with the community in a space designed to offer a truly unique shopping experience.
