Arthur Meadows immigrated into Canada from Manchester England in the early 1900's. He apprenticed with a Jeweler in Toronto, Canada. In 1926 he launched out on his own, opening Art Jewelers in Detroit, Michigan. His sons: Gene, Glenn, and Art Jr. continued in the business passing on the craft to the next generation. Currently the original Art Jewelers continues, though relocated to Plymouth, MI.
Dave and Doug Meadows each own stores in GA. Art Jr. and his son Kent have a store in Ocala, FL. I love the craft I was privileged to have been born into. I love the fact that I get to work with something that God created for our enjoyment. It speaks to His glory and creativity. That He hid gems in the ground for us to discover, and that gems take light and transform it into a rainbow of colors.
For generations it has been the 'token of love' between husband and wife. I love to work to create something that remains for generations. I love that jewelry carries memories and ties to our life stories.

After getting the blessing from Lauren's father, his next step was to get an engagement ring from Lauren's brother, Andrew.
Andrew knew his sister had a specific ring in mind and pulled it from the showcase.
Just recently one of our customers requested that Malachi and Andrew make him some cuff links and a ring with his family crest.
We think this is an awesome idea for men's jewelry - Angelica just recently had a pendant made for Andrew's 30th birthday, and Jonathan won an award this past April for.

The youth that we have the privilege of working with have stories of brokenness and tragedy, leaving deep wounds that weigh on their hearts.
However, we do not believe that their stories end there.
We believe that these wounds can be healed and that the scars can speak of how God restores.
Isaiah 1:17 says, "learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, plead the widow's cause."
Restore17 was formed in response to this call.
Our God mends the broken heart, He defends the weak and gives a voice to the voiceless.
