From our hands to your heart
Jewelry Design Center opened in 1977 as Doug Toone Jewelry Manufacturing. Doug was what you might call the guy behind the guy, providing wholesale services to other jewelry shops in the area.
After about a year, however, savvy folks realized they could create the jewelry of their dreams by going straight to the source. By 1979, Doug had taken his business in a new direction and was working with customers one on one. The Jewelry Design Center's reputation would grow out of that bespoke, highly personalized service. That first little store has since grown into one of the most innovative retail outlets in the nation. The present-day Jewelry Design Center—recognized by a giant rotating diamond sculpture out front—is now located in an almost 17,000 square feet state-of-the-art facility. In addition, a location in Kennewick, WA was opened in 2016.
We are still family owned - and the premiere importer of loose diamonds and precious gemstones in the Northwest. We carry jewelry styles and brand names found nowhere else. We still distinguish ourselves by custom designing, fabricating and repairing jewelry in-house. (Customers can also watch big screens as our craftsmen work.)
