“Truly, the most important thing to me is providing the customer the very best in personalized service.”

When you decide to invest in any piece of jewelry, do you want a chain store clerk, or a professional with over 40 years of experience? What does over 40 years of experience get you the customer? It affords you access to the best stones and settings on the market, a keen eye for quality and style, accurate grading of stones, and full written appraisals including detailed measurements and current values of your treasured pieces. In short, a depth of knowledge in every aspect of the fine jewelry business.

Deb has been a GIA (Gemological Institute of America) Graduate Gemologist for 30 years. Deb's understanding comes from years of experience working in major high-profile stores, as well as smaller stores she's helped start or manage. This diversity gives her the particular ability to help customers find the exact piece that will fit and define their style.

Deb's New York roots and Washington lifestyle have created a unique woman of style and care. “She is truly one of the most wonderful and caring people that I have ever met”, says her husband Bill, a recently retired Washington State Ferry Captain and Navigational Equipment instructor.

When you visit Two Sisters Fine Jewelry we want you to feel like you have reconnected with life long a friend who is there to help you find the perfect piece of jewelry!

Kristina Marie Designs Custom Jewelry

I am one of the in-house designers at Two Sisters. With tools in my hands since I was 8 years old, jewelry has been a passion of mine most of my life. I turned that love into a small business in 1990. Today my jewelry is a venture I pursue with passion and creativity. Envisioning beautiful wearable art and providing excellent customer service are my top priorities. I bring the designer experience to you.

I handcraft many element of my pieces including the all important clasp. No more fussing with impossibly tiny clutches to fit into minuscule catches. Seriously, let me fix that for you! I meticulously craft my jewelry and ear wires in 14k and 18k gold, fine and sterling silver. Each piece is made by me and incorporates fine quality freshwater pearls, gemstones, genuine Swarovski crystal and handmade glass. The hammered details in my work are forged with high quality German tools and polished to a high luster shine. I also use a variety of hand-tools for the custom texturing on my pieces. No two are exactly alike. My work is the culmination of my love, skill, grit, endurance and giving. I love making gifts you give to yourself and gifts you give to your loved ones. It is my true joy to make jewelry that speaks to your life and life milestones. We, at Two Sisters, love and understand what jewelry is all about, come see us for the important gifts you give!

My educational background is in the fine and performing arts with a B.A. degree in Music, Vocal Performance and advanced studies in Theatre at Seattle Pacific University. Now, with a long career in the jewelry industry, I continue my education in gemstones and have completed a Diploma in Graduate Diamonds and Accredited Jewelry Professional (AJP) through the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). I am on track to complete my Graduate Gemologist Diploma (GG) in 2020.

Equipped with the latest developments in gemology, design and fine craftsmanship our team at Two Sisters brings 100 years of knowledge and skill to use everyday!
