Barnes Jewelers is a second generation family-owned jewelry store that was founded over a quarter century ago by Doyce Barnes.
"When only the finest will do" has been Barnes Jewelers' motto since the very beginning.
They take pride in offering their clientele quality jewelry that focuses on individuality and fine detail.
Barnes Jewelers uses the latest technologies to create one-of-a-kind masterpieces that resemble works of art rather than jewelry. Computer Aided Design (CAD) is one of the tools that makes all this possible. Barnes' four in-house custom jewelers are efficient in 3-D Matrix CAD/CAM, 2-D Digital Goldsmith and Laser Welding.
Most everyone has jewelry that is just lying around in the jewelry box not being worn. Maybe it's out of style, broken, doesn't fit or just plain ugly. The custom jewelers are able to use the diamonds and gemstones along with the metal to create a unique design that will showcase your true personality.
Barnes Jewelers travels internationally to find the most beautiful jewelry the world has to offer. Twice a year, Stephen and Doyce Barnes travel to Antwerp, Belgium — the diamond capital of the world — to hand-select the finest quality diamonds in the market. Buying directly from Debeers sightholders eliminates all the middle men and enables Barnes Jewelers to offer diamonds at a significant value.
Barnes Jewelers carries many designer lines including Majestic Art Collection by John Bekarian, Mark Schnieder, John Alston Designs, Galatea, Dangler "The Marriage Symbol," Kate McCullar, and Hot Diamonds just to name a few. As authorized dealers for Seiko, Pulsar and Christian Geneve, they carry an extensive line of watches and clocks. Although they are not authorized dealers for high end watches like Rolex, Tag Heur, Omega and Breitling, Barnes does carry several pre-owned models that are in "like-new" condition at a considerable savings.
As members of Independent Jewelers Organization and as alumni of Gemological Institute of America, Barnes Jewelers exemplifies the professionalism it takes to stand out in the jewelry industry. The staff consists of Stephen Barnes, master graduate gemologist (IJO/GIA) and Graduate Gemologist (GIA), Glenn Coltrane, graduate gemologist (GIA), Scott Smith, accredited jewelry professional (GIA), John Witt, master jeweler (JA), Crystal Case, Sherll Barnes, Sue Kearney, DeAnn Lear and Amanda Houston.
