About Titanium-Jewelry.com

In 1988, Ron and Mechelle Yates opened their first retail store, California Coin & Jewelry in Modesto, CA. They bought and sold rare coins, estate jewelry and diamonds from private individuals and estates. Most of the jewelry was resold to jewelry wholesalers and local jewelers. After a few years, the focus of the business and the name was changed to Yates & Co Jewelers.

In 2002, we opened our first e-commerce jewelry website, www.Titanium-Jewelry.com. This website specializes in modern jewelry made of contemporary metals such as titanium, tungsten, cobalt, meteorite, damascus steel - and other cool stuff for guys. Titanium-Jewelry.com is an industry leader and innovator in it's niche. We've served customers in every state and 27 countries around the world. You can come in to our store and physically try on any of the styles that are found on www.Titanium-Jewelry.com.

Ron Yates

"Immature is a word that boring people use to describe fun people."

Tell us a little about what you do? I spend the bulk of my time working our websites and brainstorming how we can better the shopping experience. I also have a passion for designing unique pieces of jewelry. Such as 4 billion year old Gibeon Meteorite, and most recently, fossilized Dinosaur bone and Woolly Mammoth tusk.

What do you like to do in your free time? I enjoy riding my horses, manicuring my yard, and listening to live outlaw country music. WE'RE GOING STREAKING!

Mechelle Yates

"I'm sorry, did I roll my eyes out loud?"

Tell us a little about what you do? Being a Graduate Gemologist (GIA) and a member of National Association of Jewelry Appraisers, most of my time is spent for our other store Yates & Co Jewelers. But I do take care of the accounting and make sure Ron doesn't get too carried away spending too much for all of his good ideas!

What do you like to do in your free time? I am known for my many hobbies. Photography, horse back riding, hiking, canning, bird watching, kayaking...the list goes on.

Ashton Yates-Woolley

"You had me at Merlot."

Tell us a little about what you do? I'm constantly trying to improve our customer experience on our websites, test promotions, and create our marketing emails.

What do you like to do in your free time? I enjoy long romantic walks down the wine aisle.

Marissa Stewart

"The force is strong with this one."

Tell us a little about what you do? I handle processing orders, shipping out beautiful jewelry, and adding cool new products to the sites.

What do you like to do in your free time? I love spending time with my husband and friends watching movies, going to comicons, and visiting the ocean.

We're Driven to Make You Happy!

1. Buying a wedding band is a big deal – we get that. So it has to be right. That’s why we want you to love your purchase. So we give you 90 days to return it if it’s not right for you.

2. Free Appraisals on items over $500 if requested. Valuable jewelry should be insured in most cases. And for jewelry insurance you will need a professional jewelry appraisal. Just ask us and we’ll do the appraisal for you – free of charge.

3. Lifetime warranty. Most of our items come with a lifetime warranty that covers loss of diamonds or gemstones, tungsten ring breaking or cracking, inlays, etc. (Check out our warranty page for more info.)

4. One on one help from a real jeweler. You don’t get this at amazon, or the big internet jewelry stores. At those places you’re lucky if you can actually talk to a real person, especially one located in the United States, who knows jewelry. We love to talk to and help our customers!

5. Have it your way. You're unique, shouldn’t your wedding band also be unique? No need to have the same ring as 1,000s of other folks. Have a design you are interested in making? Let’s create a custom ring just for you. We will sketch, do a CAD design, and then mfg’er the ring to your custom requirements. It’s a fun process.
