About Me

A Warm Welcome

Hi there, I’m Ruth, and I’m thrilled that you’ve found your way to Ruth’s Gems, where every piece of jewelry tells a story. For nearly 20 years, I’ve been creating handcrafted jewelry in my cozy studio in Arizona, using sterling silver, gold plating, and beautiful stones to craft pieces that are as unique as the people who wear them.

My Journey

My journey with jewelry began in a small, sunlit studio nestled in the heart of Arizona. There, surrounded by the stunning landscapes of the Southwest, I discovered my passion for transforming raw materials into wearable art. It’s a magical process, taking a simple piece of silver, adding a touch of gold, carefully selecting the perfect stone, and watching as it all comes together into something truly special. Each piece is crafted with precision and love, reflecting the natural beauty and spirit of the place I call home.

Over the years, my studio has seen countless designs come to life. No two pieces are ever exactly the same, and that’s what makes them so special. I believe that jewelry should be an expression of individuality, and it brings me immense joy to create custom pieces that are accessible to everyone.

Why This Is My Passion

Jewelry making isn’t just a craft - it’s a form of storytelling. Each piece I create carries with it a bit of my heart and soul, and I love knowing that it will go on to be part of someone else’s story. There’s a certain magic in seeing a finished piece and knowing the journey it took to get there, from the first sketch to the final polish. It’s a joy that I’ve been blessed to experience every day in my studio.

I’m passionate about making custom jewelry accessible to everyone, because I believe that everyone deserves to own something that feels truly special and personal. Whether it’s a simple silver necklace or a gold-plated ring set with a vibrant stone, each piece is made with care, dedication, and a deep love for the craft.

A Heartfelt Thank You

As I look back on nearly two decades of creating jewelry, I’m filled with gratitude for the journey and the wonderful connections I’ve made along the way. Your support and love for Ruth’s Gems have meant the world to me, and I’m excited to continue crafting beautiful pieces that bring joy to your life.

Thank you for being a part of this journey with me. I can’t wait to see what the future holds and to continue creating pieces that you’ll cherish for years to come.
