Our Story

Jeter and Jan Case, husband and wife and high-school sweethearts, form the dynamic partnership behind J.C. Jewelers.  In a true meeting of fate and fortune, Jeter discovered his passion for jewelry-making after Jan (already a jewelry aficionado) introduced him to a master jeweler.  

The couple both attended school at the Gemological Institute of America in California.  Jeter received his degree in jewelry design while Jan became a graduate gemologist and an American Gem Society Certified Gemologist Appraiser.  Of the select group of people who have earned these credentials, Jan is recognized as one of the top in the nation.  J.C. Jewelers was established in 1988 with just one case of jewelry!  Although the inventory has grown and much has changed, the Cases stick to their original values: integrity, customer service, and excellence.
