Lee Krombholz,
Visionary
Lee Krombholz is a third generation owner and President of Krombholz Jewelers. His advertising agency gave him the title "visionary." Lee is quiet about this designation, but "visionary" is appropriate because he lives in a world of anticipating the future of business and style.
Lee developed his love for the craft of jewelry designing at age 8 while engraving with his dad in the basement of their home. Watching how his father enjoyed working with his hands, Lee started his life "in the business." Lee is now an artist, a craftsman, a salesman, a janitor, and a business owner. His primary passion is owning a jewelry store that helps people bring forth their own style - this is not jewelry selling, but an entirely different process of style discovery work.
Lee speaks of "getting to know" each piece of jewelry and looking for those gemstones that will "smile" at you. His personal style tends to be more symmetrical and tailored. Designers such as Buccellati and Stephen Webster are a few of his favorites, specifically Buccellati's engraved finishes and Webster's design "edge".
