| "...Quality by Design. In a world where everyone says they are the best, we would like say that we are different. Since 1969, our family has passed the art of handcrafting jewelry from one generation to another. It is our aspiration to thoughtfully design, produce jewelry, and provide gemstones (hand-picked by our Graduate Gemologist) that are as high in quality as they are exclusive. We strive to create durable jewelry that will always be recognized as a "Van Dyke"..."

| "...Two women in biltmore village are making jewelry the old fashioned way...one piece at a time. Lynn Daniel and Susan West have decided that although making molds that produce dozens of replicas of the original piece of jewelry is certainly labor and cost-effective, it is not personally fulfilling as an art form, and overlooks the joy of having jewelry made just for you..."

| "...Trying to be the kind of people our pets believe us to be.
With many years of extensive art background and manufacturing experience, we decided to give up the rat race and "head for the hills".
After a short but sweet visit to Asheville in 1996, we were both in awe of the beauty surrounding this fair city. Having a slow moment at work and glancing through a jewelry trade journal found us a small shop for sale and we immediately jumped on the opportunity. Being very spontaneous (and very crazy) we gathered up every nickel of retirement dollars to purchase this store and turn it into our dream. Getting back to real values and enjoying life and nature became our primary goals. Connecting with all living things seemed to be so much more satisfying than living the hectic, high-stress lives we had been living. We wanted to draw family closer together both physically and spiritually. It was clearly time to sit back and smell the roses! We are thankful we took this chance..."
