About us

JES Jewelers was born in 2011 with the design of the "Alu-Blue Droplet," an aluminum pendant adorned with a London blue topaz and a dream to share a passion for gemstones and jewelry with others. Unlike many typical jewelry businesses, we have no brick-and-mortar location; we come to you either virtually or in person. In an industry that is steeped in tradition and expectations, we like to think we bring something fresh and distinctive to the market. We provide custom-made artisan jewelry that is accessible to people across the world. We spend time working with you one-on-one to create a unique, custom-designed piece of jewelry. Here you'll find a unique melting pot of nontraditional metals (like pewter, aluminum, brass, and copper), gemstones, distinctive contemporary and classic designs all paired with your sense of style. We also provide gemological lab services that provide a statement of your stone’s attributes and a record of its quality.

About the Owner and Jeweler

My passion for gemstones started at a young age, mostly because of a television network that sold gems and jewelry. I bought my first real gemstone, a 2.66 carat Amethyst, at the age of 14. I got hooked; one has now turned into 120 plus. My enjoyment for jewelry was always there, but the realization of making it started after I had poured some molten aluminum in random shapes ending up with one that progressed into what is now the “Alu-Blue Droplet,” therefore introducing me to the symbiotic world of gemstones and jewelry. I since have studied coursework in Jewelry Manufacturing & Design, and Gemology from various experts. I have earned a Gemologist Apprenticeship/Introduction to Gemology Certificate from the International School of Gemology, and have also received a Certified Pearl Specialist Certificate from Pearls as One by The Cultured Pearl Association of America. I believe that jewelry should be as unique as those who wear it. It doesn’t matter what it’s made of or how big it is; it’s the sentiment, the expression that genuinely matters. I think that every piece of jewelry can hold a meaning that is bigger than itself. — J. Eric Steventon
