A More Personal
Approach to Fine Jewelry
The most meaningful jewelry is never just about the piece itself. It is about the person wearing it, the moment behind it, and the memories it will carry for years to come. At Kroman Jewelry, we believe fine jewelry should feel deeply personal, thoughtfully crafted, and connected to life’s most important moments.
Through private consultations and one-on-one collaboration, we help clients create jewelry designed around your story, your style, and the people you love most. From custom engagement rings and heirloom redesigns to meaningful gifts and timeless gemstones, every piece is created with intention, emotion, and lasting beauty in mind.

Meet Olivia Beisiegel

Meet Anne-Marie Doucet
Operations Manager
Anne may not be on the bench, but she is a lifelong artist and designer. Before sitting down with our customers to design their dream pieces of jewelry, she was creating beautiful floral arrangements and digital artwork. You may have also spotted her digging in the dirt, searching for natural treasures and rocks—which is what first sparked her interest in the jewelry industry! She has always loved geodes and geology, so earning her certifications through Fred Meyer Jewelry and the Diamond Council of America, where she studied the science and characteristics of gemstones and diamonds, ultimately made her fall in love with the jewelry industry for good. Anne recently moved back to Kansas from the Pacific Northwest, where she got her start in the jewelry industry, and joined the Kroman team in 2025. As Operations Manager, she is hands-on with every piece of jewelry that comes through our doors. She also meets with clients to design their dream pieces, help them find the perfect jewelry, and determine the best solutions for repairs. Outside of work, besides rockhounding, she still loves creating art, reading, building LEGOs, and spending time at home with her two dogs, Reptar and Rocco, and her husband, Cody. “I feel very fortunate and lucky to be here every day. I love what I do and everyone I get to work with! I hope my passion allows me to help my clients discover the piece of jewelry they want or take care of the beloved pieces they already have.”
