Our logo is a compass made from the pavilion (bottom pointy part) facets of a diamond. The inner portion is the proportional dimensions of the pavilion facets and the outer “compass” is an elongation of the 4 that makeup the North, South, East, and West.
As a jeweler, I love the concept of the compass as it really demonstrates what I’m all about. My desire is to point my customers in the right direction when dealing with things like diamonds, gemstones, custom design, and repair/restoration. The world of jewelry takes years of experience to grasp and the casual buyer usually is overwhelmed at the expense and what they should get. My purpose is to give you the most relevant information and to point out the right direction. The ultimate choice is yours, but I’m here to help as much or as little as you need to make a purchase you’ll be pleased with for a lifetime.
Our Story...
Charles F. Glasmann Jewelers was founded in Denver, CO in 1945 shortly after the end of World War II by a veteran of the war, Charlie Glasmann. Mr. Glasmann had a small shop in the heart of Denver, CO and focused on commercial accounts and custom repair. A young salesman named John Hanson came along in the early 1970's and apprenticed under Charlie and purchased the store in 1973. He would later change the name to Glasmann and Hanson Jewelry and focus more on retail custom jewelry.
The current owner, Drew Rummell, first heard about John's store through mutual friends at church and met John when he came to the shop to design an engagement ring for his future wife. Through a series of providential events, Drew and his wife bought the store from John in 2011. He apprenticed under John to learn the jewelry trade and has also learned the disciplines of Computer Aided Design, Computer Aided Manufacture (CAD/CAM), and casting techniques to produce original jewelry pieces that perfectly cater to our customers. "I love taking in the passions of my customers and creating something unique and elegant that will be cherished for a lifetime." As we continue the tradition began by Charlie Glasmann and continued through John Hanson, our goal is to help our customers design something intensely personal and unique.
