 Lathrop's Gems and Fine Jewelry has evolved over the years from a small lapidary to a premiere jewelry destination, specializing in fine colored gemstones and custom design. Opened more than fifty years ago by the store's namesake, Bill Lathrop was a rockhound and a skilled gem cutter. From this humble beginning as an outlet for his creative skills, Lathrop's has become the place to shop for quality gemstones and reasonable prices.
As the marketplace has become truly global in scope, we continue to enjoy a strong position with our focus on fine colored gemstones. Lathrop's has, for many years, served customers through a broad inventory of product and extensive knowledge of the gem world. We continue to be the source for quality gemstones and beautiful, original design.
Lathrop's Gems and Fine Jewelry will help you create the perfect design to suit your style and taste. Together, we will develop your ideas and create an original model in wax, or you may choose from more than two thousand models of our molds and designs. Whether we use gemstones that you already have, select from our extensive inventory of colored gemstones, or a combination of both, our craftsmen will produce the jewelry of your dreams. Our showcases are filled with unique designs, created by Lathrop's craftsmen, as well as other artisans from across the U.S. and around the world.
