About Alan James Jewelers

ABOUT US

Our Story


Alan James Jewelers was built on a simple idea: bring the jewelry experience directly to the customer. Founded in Troy, Michigan, our business is fully mobile, offering private, by-appointment consultations at a location that suits you. Instead of visiting a jewelry store, you’ll meet directly with our jeweler at a local café, your home, or another public place in Troy. This model gives clients comfort, privacy, and personal attention without the traditional retail pressure.

With decades of experience in fine jewelry, gemology, and custom design, Alan James Jewelers combines the craftsmanship of a traditional jeweler with the convenience of modern service. Our clients trust us for expert repairs, one-of-a-kind custom pieces, and fair, transparent gold buying. Every appointment is designed around your goals, whether you’re reimagining a family heirloom, restoring a favorite piece, or looking to sell unwanted jewelry for a fair value.
