Services
Our story began in 1972 when Doug became the jeweler for a catalog showroom in Lincoln, NE. In the next decade, the catalog showroom started expanding into other states and he became responsible for all jewelry repairs for over 10 different locations. In 1983, we knew it was time to take the plunge and open our own store; Gold Smith Jewelers was born.
The term "fine jewelry" has been described as jewelry made out of gold or platinum, with or without gemstones. We go a step further to include the caliber of our workmanship and quality of our gemstones in that definition. Our fine jewelry doesn't just stick to standard gemstones like ruby, sapphire, and emerald, although we do use them.
There are plenty of people who can draw a custom jewelry design on a piece of paper or design it using Computer-Aided Design software (CAD), but it takes a bench jeweler, one who hand fabricates and repairs jewelry, to understand the practicality and mechanics of the design. The team at Gold Smith Jewelers works together to ensure your vision will also become a functional, beautiful piece of jewelry.
At Gold Smith Jewelers, one of our many strengths is our expertise in evaluating your jewelry's issues to ensure the proper solution. Because we design and make jewelry, we have the expertise and knowledge to repair all of your jewelry correctly. Repairs are done on-site at reasonable prices within a quick turnaround time.
When a quartz watch stops, it is usually blamed on the battery. That's actually the first thing we check, and if it's dead or dying we can generally replace it while you wait. However, did you know quartz watches also have wheels and gears, and those moving pieces can go bad? They're called "movements, " and we can repair or replace the movements in quartz watches and clocks to get them running properly.

Great work and Great people!! I needed to have the prongs checked on the diamond of my ring. This is the first time I have been to this shop and they are absolutely amazing. They explained everything to me in detail and helped me resolve the issue. The time was prompt and ahead of what I had planned on to get it back. I highly recommend this jewelry store for repairs and also any new item.

I have been patronizing Gold Smith for over 20 years and they never disappoint. Whether it is for a repair, or for a purchase, they are thorough, honest and fair. They will tell you if something is not worth fixing and not try to string you along. Their merchandise is always of genuinely excellent quality and I've never been disappointed. That's why they are my favorite and will always be.

I love Doug and Mary and Gracie. Doug is a whiz with sizing rings and I wouldn't trust anyone else to size my grandmother's 1932 class ring from a size 5 to a 9.5. It fits beautifully and he does quality work on all my other pieces. Mary is so warm and welcoming - customer service is her middle name. She really knows her stuff too, and I love talking shop with her. Gracie? She's in it for the belly rubs :)

When my diamond fell out of my wedding ring and chipped the mall jewelry store where we bought it said it could not be fixed because the diamond was chipped and that my only option was to trade my set in for a bigger, "better" set. I did not want to lose my set and I did not want a new set, I wanted the set my husband put on my finger 16 years ago.
So... my husband took the ring to Gold Smith Jewelers. They were able to put my diamond on to a new head and fixed my ring in less than 2 days. I'm so pleased with it and so pleased that I can continue to wear my set. Thank you! Also, my husband said

Gold Smith Jewelers does excellent work! They are so knowledgeable about what they do. They have repaired and fixed my fine jewelry (...I took my rings here after being dissatisfied with the work at a large, popular engagement ring "superstore" in town...) and also replaced watch batteries for me. Reasonable prices and honest answers!
