About Me

 


"We are proud of being a family, woman owned busines, selling, restyling & designing fine jewelry that is taylor made for you as well as appraising for insurance and estate liquidation purposes."

 Lynne Cole, Graduate Gemologist, Founder and Designer          

For over 30 years I have been designing custom diamond and gemstone jewelry. I love working with customers to restyle heirloom stones and to create brand new pieces. I also appraise and repair the pieces in your jewelry box that may need some attention. 

I am a graduate gemologist from the Gemological Institute of America.  I studied in residence in 1987 and served as the Vice President of the Illinois/Wisconsin GIA Alumni Association for 2 years.  My experience includes retail sales and appraising on Michigan Ave in Chicago and I have experience working alongside of some of the best Chicagoland jewelry designers. 

My life's passion are my three horses, daughters and granddaughter. I designed my first pieces of equine jewelry for my daughters to wear when showing miniature horses as members of our local 4-H club.  We now custom design engagement rings and fine jewelry for brides, mother of the brides and assist gentlemen in finding the perfect gift for all occasions.  My jewelry is made to be passed down from horsewoman to horsewoman and to be worn with pride for generations.

From my first design I have slowly grown Geneva Lakes Jewelry over the past 20 years.  My first retail space was located in Williams Bay in 2009. We quickly outgrew that space and moved to Lake Geneva, first on Cook St. then Main Street and now on Center St. We are proud of being a woman owned business, selling beautifully crafted fine jewelry.
