Our story began from humble beginnings in the year of 1989. Tony Garabet, our company's namesake, spearheaded his career from from the basement of his modest Windsor home. During that time, Tony's Fine Jewellery was merely a small studio where jewellery was created and repaired. A few short years later, Tony's goldsmithing skills led him to officially establishing Tony's Fine Jewellery as a business that was open to the public, originally located at Forest Glade Plaza in the city of Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Although small, Tony's Fine Jewellery quickly became the jewellery store of choice for the local residents of Windsor.
Tony's rapid success, thanks to strict adherence towards customer satisfaction, and for offering a multitude of on-site goldsmithing services, led to quick expansion in 1994 when he moved his business to a larger location at the County Fair Mall in the town of Leamington, Ontario, Canada. The success of Tony's Fine Jewellery warranted incremental expansion every year thereafter, adding on more showcase space, a larger assortment of inventory, and introducing a wealth of new manufacturing equipment to meet the demands of the ever-growing clientele. The establishment would eventually double in size in 2006 as the store was renovated in order to meet customer expectations.
When the mall could no longer accommodate further expansion, Tony decided that it was time to move his business into a larger, standalone building in Leamington's downtown commercial hub in 2010. Tony's Fine Jewellery has operated at this location ever since, serving customers from all over Windsor-Essex County, and remains as the sole jewellery store in town to offer on-site jewellery repair and custom design services.
Tony's Fine Jewellery is dedicated to constantly redefining the modern-day jewellery store based on the current demands of the market. It is for this reason that we are committed to utilizing the cutting-edge technology available in our industry. The purpose is to provide you, the client, with a timeless piece that you can proudly wear and enjoy, while standing the test of time in order to pass it down onto the next generation.
Some of the technology that we use in the manufacturing of what will become your precious heirlooms include a laser welder, which aids us in creating or repairing pieces without the use of a torch. Other such modern manufacturing techniques include computerized engraving, whereby any font, and even almost any image, can now be engraved on a piece of jewellery, the idea of which was mere fantasy in the not-so-distant past.
In addition to looking towards the future, we never forget the past, and where we came from as an industry. There are things that are best done the traditional way. In many cases, the traditional way is the only way. At Tony's Fine Jewellery, we are proud to employ a wealth of techniques, both old and new, being completely equipped for just about any challenge that comes our way. An example of our readiness includes our capability to produce mokumé-gané, a fabled technique that was lost to the pages of time. Whether you are looking to create a scintillating, one-of-a-kind piece, forged in the flames of history, or a diamond engagement ring as a means of beginning your future family when she tells you, "Yes!", Tony's Fine Jewellery will always be here to help with all of your jewellery needs.
