Our History

Designer Jewels, Inc based in Houston has been designing handmade jewelry for five generations.

Designer Jewels was founded in 1968 with the goal to provide the highest quality product and service to our customer -- we continue to strive to maintain the goal.

"Designing Jewels" began over 100 years ago with my late grandfather, Aaron Sachs, in Russia, continued by my late father, Joseph L. Sandler, myself and continues today with my son, Mark and my grandson, Joshua.

Our clients are able to follow the steps of "designing" their special jewelry from beginning to end to ensure satisfaction of their design. Our fine jewelry is made in our on the premises factory. Our business continues to prosper primarily from referrals of our satisfied customers.
