Custom Jewelry Designers in Albuquerque Bringing Dream Designs to Life

With decades of combined experience in the fine jewelry industry, John and Janelle Thomas are trusted custom jewelry designers in Albuquerque, specializing in custom engagement rings, luxury jewelry, and expert jewelry repair services.

John began his jewelry career more than 30 years ago in New York, where he quickly realized that jewelry design was more than a profession - it was his true passion.

His expertise in custom designed jewelry allows him to guide clients through every step of the design process, from concept to creation.

Janelle started her journey in New Mexico 25 years ago and became a jewelry store owner at just 24 years old. Her early focus on professional jewelry repair and build-your-own jewelry services laid the foundation for a career centered on craftsmanship, customer service, and personalized design. Today, she is a registered gemologist with the International School of Gemology and is known for delivering a luxury jewelry experience tailored to each client.

Both John and Janelle studied at the prestigious Gemological Institute of America (GIA), equipping them with advanced knowledge in diamonds, gemstones, and fine jewelry design. Their formal gemology education, combined with decades of hands-on experience, makes them a trusted destination for engagement rings in Albuquerque and custom fine jewelry throughout the region.
