What we do
Bring it in. If it isn’t our job, we’ll tell you whose it is.
“We're a family owned business who do jewelry repair, custom jewelry, watch batteries, and buy gold.”
Our own words, from our Facebook page
“This is my jewelry experience channel where I show what I do for a living. I became part owner of a jewelry store in Tacoma WA, I'm local and love my community!” — that’s how Andrew describes the channel where he films the work. Everything below is something you can watch us doing in our own photographs.
One of ours
On the bench, most weeks
- Jewelry repair
- Broken chains, worn prongs, a stone that fell out at work.
- Ring sizing
- Up or down, and you get the scrap gold or silver back.
- Watch batteries
- While you wait, most days.
- Custom jewelry
- From your drawing or a photo on your phone — carved in wax, cast, set here.
- Wax carving, casting and stone setting
- The three steps in the sequence below. All of it happens in the back.
- Chains and bracelets
- Made and mended.
- Re-dipping and polishing
- White gold that has gone warm, silver that has gone dull.
- We buy gold
- Bring it in and we'll look at it with you.
How a piece gets made
One ring, carved to boxed, in our own photographs.
Someone brings us a drawing, or a picture on their phone. We carve it in wax, cast it, set the stones, polish it and put it in a box. All of it happens in the back of the shop. These six are the same ring, photographed as we went.
Wax, casting, setting, polishing — every step above is a service, and every one of them happens here. We also cast and repair for people who bring us their own gold.
What people said across it
We didn’t write any of this. They did.
Our rating is 4.7 across 138 Google reviews, and this drawer holds one envelope for every one of them. Fifteen carry words we can show you, hand-addressed with a first name and the job — those are the ones below, word for word, spelling and punctuation and all. Pick one and we’ll open it.
What the drawer adds up to
You get your scrap gold back when we resize. We call you when it's ready. And when it isn't our job, we say so and send you to someone in Tacoma who does it.

Who’s back there
A father, a son and three people who know what they’re doing.
We're a family owned business. Michael Miller owns the shop, and his son Andrew Miller is his partner in it — the second generation of us behind this counter.
Three employees work with us, including a master jeweler who trained under Mike and Bob. That is the whole shop: there is no call centre and no front desk between you and the person doing the work.
We've always run on word of mouth. You have probably heard our name from a neighbour rather than found it on a screen.
Michael Miller — owner
Andrew Miller — co-owner, second generation
