My Story
Hello! My name is Jack, and my journey in the jewelry industry began when I was just 14.
Growing up, I worked for many skilled jewelers, learning the art of hand-carving wax models and perfecting the craft of jewelry repair. These early experiences shaped my passion and expertise.
​
In 1998, after years of honing my skills, I opened my first small repair shop in Michigan. Two years later, an exciting opportunity took me to Washington, DC, where I managed a well-respected jewelry store for nearly a decade. This experience gave me valuable insight into the retail side of the industry, deepening my understanding of both craftsmanship and customer service.
​
In 2010, I returned to my hometown in Michigan, bringing with me a wealth of knowledge. I launched my own jewelry manufacturing company, combining traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Today, I proudly serve many local jewelers, helping bring their custom designs to life with precision and innovation.
​
After more than 35 years at the jewelry bench, my wife, Sophie, and I took a new step in our journey.We opened our first retail store. We wanted it to be more than just a business; we wanted it to reflect our family’s story. That’s why we named it after our daughter, Gabriana.
Our store is not just a place to buy jewelry ,it’s a place where craftsmanship, creativity, and personal connections come together to celebrate life’s most meaningful moments.
Custom Design Process
Founder's Craftsmanship Promise
We take all of your inspiration, ideas, and specifications and bring them to life with a detailed hand sketch on paper.
From there, we carefully source a wide range of stones tailored to your exact specifications and budget. If you have heirloom jewelry or loose stones you would like to incorporate, we can thoughtfully redesign and integrate them into your new piece.
Next, I create a hand-carved wax model or design your piece using advanced 3D CAD technology. You’ll receive a digital rendering from every angle for your approval, and you’re welcome to visit us to try on the wax model in person.
Once approved, we transform the 3D concept into precious metal through casting. Your stones are then meticulously hand-set, fine details are perfected, and the piece is polished to a flawless finish.
I always ensure we stay ahead of the game when it comes to custom jewelry, restorations, and repairs. For me, no project is too complex or unattainable. Every piece is crafted with precision, passion, and purpose.
