HE VALUE OF jewelry goes far beyond money,
especially when it reflects the unique relationship between two people. The staff at Custom Gems can help you create a customized ring that perfectly expresses your feelings for your loved one. If you own an heirloom keepsake that needs repair or remodeling, Custom Gems can ensure that you will enjoy wearing it for many years before handing it down to the next generation. We also have minerals and fossils, which make unique gifts. If you enjoy making your own handcrafted jewelry, this is
a one-stop shop where you can find everything you need. Tim Kautsch, the current owner of Custom Gems, discovered his passion for precious stones at age 16 when he began taking lapidary classes from a previous owner of the store. Tim started working at Custom Gems while he was still in high school, earned his Ofrom GIA in 1995, and bought the Gemologist degree store in 2009. 8487 FREDERICK ST.
