Our Story

Over a Century of Quality

In 1871, Solomon Joseph opened our first store in downtown Des Moines. He quickly gained a reputation as a quality craftsman and a meticulous timekeeper.

Over the years, we have seen many trends and styles, but have never lost sight of our dedication to customer service and honest work.

Our customers say it best

I’ve had a tremendous experience with Trisha at Joseph’s! She was able to take very personal family pieces to create new, special pieces for me and my daughter. She took our styles and desires to create the perfect pieces!!! This was the first time we had met and worked on design together, so for her to get it just right demonstrates the caliber of staff Joseph has. I cannot wait to design my next piece together. I would never consider another jeweler for any family needs. Ever!
