The deSignet Family

As a child growing up in the jewelry business, jewelry was never an option. Reg's parents wanted more. The "tests" implied accounting should be his path in life. After college, majoring in the social sciences, minoring in math, music, business and computer programing, Reg was unqualified for any real occupation, jewelry was his only option. Engraving and basic Service skills, watch bands, gift wrapping, things he learned as a boy, enough to get started. When Reg realized how much he disliked selling the same old merchandise everyone handled, he got serious, learning Hand Engraving, Casting, Jewelry deSign and Fabrication. If you have an idea, Reg loves to sketch. Click Here Ironically loving his craft wasn't enough. Convention markets, golf, military, nautical jewelry as well as the traditional wedding and engagement rings all worked to a degree but the struggle continued. Then the internet came along and Reg's love for programming, from his college years, finally made the difference. Now writing HTML is just another way for him to show off the wonderful product deSignet creates. A jeweler/programmer, a fit made in internet jewelry heaven. Now with a great staff Reg thrives on helping customers create truly special pieces of jewelry.

I came in to contact with Reg and deSignet in 1995 when I was given his name so that I could have a wedding ring set made. From this start, a friendship has developed and grown. I have spent a few years in uniform of the armed forces of the United States; I have been in both airborne divisions (101st) (82nd) and have time in other units as well. Some of the others are 1/509th 8th ID. Germany, 90th ID, 98th div. (TNG) 19th SF Group, and have time with the US Air Force as a human relations instructor. I also belong to the DAV. VFW, 101st abn div association, 82nd div association, 187 RCT association, Infantrymen association, all airborne association, and the Army Aviation association. I am also a combat wounded and disabled vet. Reg and I saw a need for custom hand made jewelry for the different military units and individuals who would cherish their time in service and wanted jewelry to show that pride. We have been going strong ever since.
