Eclipse Viewing At Jewel-Craft
August 28, 2017

It’s not every day that a solar eclipse is viewable from the United States and when we heard that this astrological event would be occurring on August 21st, we started making plans. We didn’t want any of our Jewel-Craft employees to miss out on what could very well be a once in a lifetime opportunity!

The first step was securing enough eclipse viewing glasses to outfit our entire staff. Luckily we planned ahead, because as the date neared these stylish shades were sold out everywhere!

The next step was making sure that all of our employees would be able to step away from the grind to witness the main event. During the peak of eclipse we instituted a company wide break and encouraged everyone to meet in the parking lot.

Together, with our NASA approved glasses on, we all watched in awe as the moon gradually passed in front of the sun. It was so amazing to experience the shift as the sky became darker and the warm day grew a little bit cooler.

We have to say, the eclipse was cooler than we could have ever expected and we’re so glad we were able to enjoy it with our entire Jewel-Craft family. Wherever you were on August 21st, we hope that you had great viewing conditions as well. After all, who knows when this opportunity will present itself again!

I just wanted to take a minute to express “Much Thanks” to the team of people that take care of me on a daily basis. Alyssa, Stephanie, and Lisa are always on top of things for me. For the last couple of weeks, after I told them that I’m preparing to go on my first vacation in over a year, I’ve noticed that they’ve been working very hard to meet (and usually beat) my deadlines to help ensure that I can vacation worry-free about my jewelry repairs. That means so much to me.

I am a goldsmith but do not have all of the tools and time to do my own custom work, so I work directly with Jewel Craft to make it easy for me and perfect for my clients. If I need a shank that is 2.35mm wide and provide my own diamonds, Jewel Craft follows all of my design details and makes the ring 2.35mm wide and sets the diamonds to perfection.

We have been working with Jewel Craft for over 20 years and I continue to use them because they are reliable. It’s like having my own 30,000 sq. foot shop, that’s how easy they are to work with. Expectations are always met and but most importantly, they are met in a timely matter.

First batch of jobs just came back from Jewel-Craft, and we are VERY pleased! Excellent communication, quality work, quick turnaround, reasonable prices. Everything we hoped for! Thanks Ross!

I received my most recent repair work this morning and wanted to reach out before time and the season get away from me. I've been in the jewelry business for nearly 25 years and I've seen "the good, the bad and the ugly" come out of the repair shop. You and your staff have given me an opportunity to compete for repairs with quality service I can promote with confidence. Thank you so very much.

Jewel Craft makes it easy. I have goldsmiths on staff but when they are on vacation or we have overflow, I can count on Jewel Craft to get our repairs done so we don’t miss a beat. I also use them for custom design jobs due to their high level of technology and efficiency.

We LOVE Jewel Craft. Their customer service and quality of work is why we have been using Jewel Craft for over 15 years. We use them for repairs as well as custom design and they really do make dreams come true for our customers.
