Charles H. Ganske Personal Jeweler

About Us

I'm Charles H. Ganske, and I've been a personal Jeweler here in Urbandale, IA, since 2009. I believe in Personal attention to detail, offering custom designs, diamond and gem stone education, and upscale luxury jewelry. I started this business after 18 years of working in a retail jewelry store and I want you, my client, to have a wonderful adventure when selecting, purchasing, owning and wearing a piece of jewelry. I want every part of the experience to be a joy; after all diamonds, gemstones and jewelry are pure beauty and pleasure. I'm looking forward to growing my business to continue to serve the greater Des Moines area. I'd like to personally invite you to come in today for your personalized experience while choosing and designing the perfect piece.
