» How does this work again?

Visit, call or email me. We’ll talk about what you want. If I don’t have the right item(s), I’ll design or get them quickly. We’ll meet and review. After you decide, I’ll do the proper paperwork, and you’ll have a beautiful new piece of jewelry.

» What if I don’t know what I want?

I know how to ask the right questions. I’ll educate you and guide you through the process.

» Where will we meet?

The boutique is at 3249 100th St in Urbandale Iowa 50322. It’s elegant, private and discreet.

» What if I live outside of Iowa?

I’ve always had a significant client list of people outside of Iowa. I have a lot of experience assisting clients all over the country. I know how to do the same for you.

» What’s in it for me? Why not go to a conventional store?

I’ll give you highly focused service and education. I won’t pressure you to buy “what’s in the case”. You’ll have access to a broader selection. You’ll have more privacy. You’ll get better values (lower prices).

» Why are the values better?

I don’t have the costs of an expensive lease, or a staff to pay. I keep a small, very carefully chosen inventory. My overhead is low, so I can offer better pricing. But you still get to deal personally with the owner of the company and you get to handle the jewelry before making a decision.

» Can I use a credit card?

Yes.

» Packaging? Appraisals?

Your jewelry will be presented in the finest boxes made, imported wood and embossed leather. An Insurance Document accompanies all items over $1,000, or at your request. There are no costs to update the Insurance Document at a later date.

» I have jewelry I’d like to sell. Do you buy jewelry?

Yes. I’ll educate you and tell you exactly what your options are. The transaction will be very transparent. You’ll be treated with dignity and respect. The transaction will be very private.

» Do you sell unmounted (loose) diamonds and gemstones?

Yes. Diamonds, of course, and I love colored gems.

» Do you do only custom design?

No, I offer custom design services, but also my Signature collection and other carefully curated jewelry collections are on hand in my boutique for immediate satisfaction.
