Tammy Kohl and her team at Takohl Design have created some beautiful, custom pieces for me and my family over the years. I love having these one-of-a-kind pieces in my collection — like a large pearl ring set to look like a large egg in a nest or a quartz bracelet that appears as if I’m wearing ice cubes around my wrist. These pieces are sure to be conversation starters when I’m out with friends. And I have loaned many pieces out for special occasions. Don’t let all this intimidate you. Tammy is a farm girl at heart, so she can make any shy boyfriend-looking-for-the-right-present feel comfortable. And her prices are very affordable(you can find pieces under $ 200 in her Sale drawer). Even the prices I have paid for many of my custom pieces are less than their appraised value. But these pieces, are worth so much more to me than what an appraiser says. These pieces are personal heirlooms to be passed down to my nieces. And they have brought me and my friends(even perfect strangers) hours of conversation. Stop by Takohl any time to browse or buy. And when you’re there, ask to see a photo of the dinosaur poop ring… that’s the most recent piece Tammy made for me! People just can’t stop talking about that one!

I love my rings I have from Takohl. Tammy sat down with me each time I ordered a Treasure Ring. She took the time to find out about the sentiment expressed inside and really took it to heart. These rings are a true treasure that I’ll pass on to my children someday.

This gorgeous woman is a good friend, so I am biased, but that does not mean her jewelry is less than utterly breathtaking!!! Timeless, elegant and utterly fabulous. From the dramatic to the understated, Tammy has jewelry for you — from her designs, or design it yourself with her guidance, you can’t go wrong. From her custom Treasure Rings, to her crazy trilobite cuff links for men, there’s always something cool here. If you have loose gems, she can set them for you. Tammy’s a very creative jewelry designer — she’s really into her art. Her store is a gallery space, and she has occasional openings where she features interesting artists. Fun!
