Jeweler Near Hutto & Taylor, TX

The showroom is at 3818 Far West Boulevard, Suite 102, Austin, TX 78731, a minute off MoPac. From Hutto it's about 23 miles and 30 to 40 minutes. From downtown Taylor it's about 32 miles, so plan on 45 to 55. The toll roads keep you off I-35 for nearly the whole trip.

That founder is Calvin Smith III, who picked up the craft from his father before opening CALVIN'S. These days he shares the store with Jackie Smith, his co-owner and our designer. The full background is in our story.

Moving house is when a lot of people realize the heirloom ring hasn't fit in years, or that the jewelry isn't listed on the new insurance policy. Both are easy fixes here. Our bench jeweler resizes rings, tightens prongs and replaces missing accent diamonds on pieces from any jeweler, and can rework an inherited ring into something you'll actually wear.

Insurers usually want a written valuation before they'll list a piece. Alexandra de Marigny, a GIA Graduate Gemologist and member of the International Society of Appraisers, prepares those independently from an office in our store. Ring ahead to book her, and bring old receipts if you've got them. Everything else we do is on our services page.

Planning a wedding at One Eleven East in downtown Hutto or The Taylor Mansion? Start the wedding bands a few weeks out. We carry plain gold, diamond and eternity bands for her, curved bands that sit flush against an engagement ring, and gold, two-tone and tantalum bands for him.

For birthdays, anniversaries and the holidays, our fine jewelry covers diamond studs, pendants, bracelets and birthstone pieces, plus designer collections from Michael M, Gabriel & Co and Royal Jewelry. The gifts page sorts it by occasion.

From Hutto, take US-79 west to SH 130 and head south to SH 45 Toll. Follow SH 45 west to MoPac (Loop 1), then take MoPac south to the Far West Boulevard exit. From Taylor, take US-79 west through Hutto and pick up the same route. Expect tolls on SH 130, SH 45 and the stretch of MoPac north of Parmer Lane.

Want to avoid tolls entirely? Go west on US-79 into Round Rock, south on I-35, then north on US-183 (Research Boulevard) and south on MoPac to Far West. It costs nothing but crawls at rush hour. Whichever way you come, the lot outside Suite 102 is free. Map it from Hutto or Taylor, or see our location page.

Hours run 11 to 6 from Wednesday to Friday and 10 to 5 on Saturdays, with Sunday through Tuesday off. Feel free to walk in; for an engagement ring or a custom piece, though, set up a time so the right designer and stones are waiting. You can phone (512) 794-1911, email hello@calvinsjewelry.com, or reach us through the contact page.

We also see customers from Thrall, Granger, Coupland and Rice's Crossing. Closer to I-35? See our pages for a jeweler near Round Rock, Pflugerville or Georgetown.
