At Athena Jewelry, we design and build custom jewelry right here in downtown Wichita. Custom jewelry is unlike anything else; it’s a perfect encapsulation of unique style and personality, fine-tuned to meet your exact desires. Regardless if you’re proposing, marking an anniversary, or finally doing something with the ring that has been sitting in your jewelry box for twenty years, custom jewelry makes a statement that will last for generations.
At Athena Jewelry, you will work directly with the people who handcraft your piece. We focus on providing the finest craftsmanship without compromising your vision. Build your custom jewelry with Athena and embrace the personality behind your next unique piece.
Engagement rings are one of our most popular requests. When we start your project, we help you choose a center stone, shape the setting around it, and match a band that fits the ring rather than sitting awkwardly beside it. Bring an inspiration photo, a rough idea, or nothing at all; we’ll help you build the perfect piece.
Your grandmother’s ring doesn’t have to stay in a box. We can reset the stones into something you’ll wear time and time again, keep the original metal in the design, or rebuild the piece entirely while preserving what matters. We make sure that the sentiment stays and that the style catches up.
Pendants, earrings, right-hand rings, upgrades to an original engagement ring. If there is an occasion behind it, we can build something specific to honor it.
Alternative metals, mixed finishes, engraved interiors, custom widths and profiles. We build men's rings around the owner’s lifestyle, so they hold up during work, endure everyday wear, and fit perfectly
Our team handles sizing, prong retipping, stone replacement, chain repair, and full restoration of antique pieces. We keep all of our work on site and in local hands, keeping your piece safe and sound.
Come in and talk it through with us. Bring photos, sketches, an old piece, or just a budget and a general direction. We will talk through available materials, timeline, and cost before anything moves forward.
We turn the conversation into a real design you can see before committing. You review it, we adjust it, and nothing gets made until you are happy with it.
We source diamonds and colored stones to match your design and your budget, and you see the options in person before choosing.
Your piece gets built by our local jewelers. Typical turnaround depends on each piece, and we will give you a firm estimate up front.
Final fitting, final inspection, and it is yours. We will go over care and cleaning and then send you on your way with your new custom piece.
Proudly Family Owned - We’re family-owned and operated and have been since 1969. We are not a chain with a corporate design catalog. One of the best perks of working with us is that you will talk to the same people every visit and build a relationship centered on your unique style.
The work happens here - Your piece does not get shipped off to a factory in another state. It gets made by jewelers you can meet in person.
Real budgets welcome - Custom does not automatically mean expensive. Tell us what you want to spend, and we will tell you honestly what is possible in your price range.
It depends entirely on the metal, the stones, and the complexity of the design. Custom work is often closer to comparable retail pricing than people expect, because you are paying for what you actually want instead of a compromise. We will give you a clear estimate at consultation before any work begins.
Projects vary by complexity and style. Rush timelines are sometimes possible, so tell us your date early, and we will be upfront with you about what is realistic.
Yes, and we encourage it. We will inspect your stones, tell you honestly what condition they are in, and design around them.

Yes, it is one of our most popular requests. We’ll work with you discreetly to create a custom engagement piece that is perfect for your partner and an unforgettable surprise.
Bring us an idea, an old ring, or a blank slate. Schedule a consultation with our team Today. There is no pressure to commit to anything on the first visit. We look forward to seeing you!
