Meet Joseph

Joseph is the 4th generation of Dolginow's to run Dolgins Fine Jewelry in Kansas City. He inherited the current office from his dad Richard in April 2020. Joseph grew up helping clients at Diamond Expressions.

Favorite Jewelry: I proposed to my wife with a round diamond in a platinum cathedral solitaire ring. It still hits.
Activity When Not Jeweling: I have 3 children and a lovely wife, so everyday is an adventure. Also, I also enjoy jogging and making ice cream from scratch.
Next Piece Of Jewelry: Has to be an Alexandrite pinky ring. I am enamored with color change.
Career Goal: I want to sell a mens wedding band which features a diamond larger than the one his signigicant other wears.

Meet Marsha

Marsha has over 40 years experience on the bench. She began her career at Dolgin's in the late 1970s. She continues to hone her craft today and is always excited to make the next piece.

Favorite Jewelry: I made a version our cactus core cuff bracelet, which I love.
Activity When Not Jeweling: Chasing goats; I have a herd of Nubian dairy goats, which I show at State Fair each year.
Next Piece Of Jewelry: A natured-inspired brooch to wear on my jean jacket or maybe a custom ring with my mom and grandmothers diamonds
Where I Learned: My first experience in jewelry-making was in high school at Shawnee Mission West. I, then, earned my degree in design from University of Kansas.
