Images-Jewelers, Inc

Starting in a small back street studio in 1976, designing and manufacturing all the jewelry we sold, Images Jewelers was founded on an idea: Bring together artistry of design, skill of craftsmanship, superior knowledge of precious gems and metals and a passion for excellence. For more than a quarter century, these four points have guided and formed Images Jewelers. Today, this desire to create beautiful and precious pieces of jewelry burns brighter than ever as Images continues to be recognized as one of the nation's premier jewelers.  The ability of Images Jewelers to transform an idea - even an emotion - into a valuable and unique work of artistry is unparalleled. Design skills are married with craftsmanship and state-of-the-art equipment and techniques. The expertise of a Graduate Gemologist and a broad and intricate network of gem sources work in unison. the result: exquisite jewelry that is unique and precious.  Images Jewelers also carries the world's most exclusive jewelry lines including Rolex at our showroom located next to the Christiana Creek Country Club at 300 E. Bristol Street in Elkhart, Indiana. Showroom hours are from 10:00am to 5:30pm Monday through Friday and from 10:00am to 2:00pm on Saturdays

The staff at Images Jewelers is proud to be a cutting edge jeweler with traditional roots. While we have all studied and trained in classical jewelry repair and manufacturing, we have not limited ourselves to the past. We actively pursue all modern technologies that allow us to provide our cutomers with the highest quality jewelry made in the most efficient and practical way.Jewelry Shop - Work Benches Our first stop is our Jewelers Row. Along the north side of our shop we have a row of jewelers benches for our jewelers to do the bulk of their work. Everything happens here. From fabrication, to repairs, to sanding and hand polishing, this is the place where most of the work happens.

You can see our first laser welder in back, the vast array of cutting and polishing wheels, gravers, racks of setting burs and hand tools, steamer, and of course, every jeweler's most important tool the ever present cup of  coffee.

Laser Welding / Engraving and Laser: On the other side of the room is our detail area. On the far left you can see our engraving bench. Equiped with a high power microscope, and an air operated graver station, we can carve, set, and finish any ring, in any metal, to and desired level of cut. From delicate bead and micro setting, to fine scrollwork, this is where it all happens.  In the middle of the room is our second laser welder. It may look small, but it gives us the ability to do fine repair work around the most delicate of stones without fear of causing heat damage, or having to pull and reset, to stones, even Amber. Again, it has a microscope attached to it so that we can see even the smallest details and create a laser beam as small as .2mm to sneak it into even the smallest spaces. This tool has fired nearly 2 million laser pulses since it entered our shop, and we use it every single day.  And on the right, under our stained glass window overlooking the retail showroom, we have a wax carving area. Look there, yet another microscope. Using a huge assortment of custom made wax carving tools, some of the greatest wax designs come to life on that humble little table.
