Charles Beaudet, second-generation jeweler, goldsmith, and gemologist, is the artist and owner of Beaudet Fine Jewelry Design and Repair in Eugene, Oregon.
Beaudet Jewelry boasts a thirty-two year reputation as Eugene’s personal fine jeweler. Satisfied customers gladly speak of the dedication and personal attention they receive when shopping at Beaudet. Since jewelry is such an intimate issue, the store’s philosophy has always been to emphasize quality and durability along with emotional importance. The staff focuses on building a trusting relationship with the customer, which is the key to creating the perfect piece of jewelry to represent lifestyle, personal taste, and significant memories to be preserved for generations to come.
Beaudet Jewelry specializes in custom design, diamonds, and jewelry repair. All work is done on-site. The advantage of having an in-store shop is that the customer is involved with the design and repair process every step of the way. The store also has a laser machine, which allows the jeweler to complete seamless and detailed repairs without the risks of using a heated torch or solder.
Charles Beaudet is the only jeweler and gemologist in the Eugene-Springfield area who travels twice a year to Antwerp, Belgium to personally select diamonds for his customers. Since Antwerp is the distribution center for 80 percent of the world’s diamonds, Beaudet has access to an unprecedented gem selection and industry education only available to a select few.
Beaudet Jewelry is a member of the Independent Jewelers Organization (IJO), the largest jewelry-buying group in the country. The store is also a member of the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers and the Jewelers Association. Membership with these institutions encourages master craftsmanship and adherence to a strong Code of Ethics to accommodate both the customer and the integrity of the jewelry industry.
