About

For bespoke or customized design, Alx&Co. offers and experience unlike any in the DC area. Our onsite workshop and in-house design services provide our clients with unparalleled expertise and quality craftsmanship that is built to last.

Our second floor Showroom and Bridal Gallery displays a collection of ready-to-wear pieces as well as bridal prototypes for your custom design.

We maintain a curated collection of fine jewelry and work with designers across the globe to source unique, handcrafted, and independent designs. Much of our collection is bespoke or one of a kind and we try to work exclusively with designers who maintain a commitment to sustainability and ethical sourcing. We also carry our own lines of customizable jewelry, including our Stargazer Collection and our Collection Engagement Rings.

We also offer full design and repair services for fine jewelry. Our in-house design team creates completely bespoke designs by working directly with clients to determine exactly how a piece should be made. Unlike other jewelers, we do not export this service so you have the opportunity to work directly with the designer from day one. We work to create and restore beautiful pieces that can be worn, used, and passed on to the next generation.

We also offer professional gemological sourcing services, including conventional natural diamonds, sapphires, and other fine gems. We source GIA certified natural and lab created diamonds, Canadian diamonds, recycled diamonds, and lab created USA-made diamonds. All sourcing is done on a custom basis and tailored to your budget and search. If you already have a gemstone with which you would like to work, we are happy to do so.

Fantastic Experience Start to Finish!

I used Alx&Co to design my fiancée's engagement ring and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! They were extremely helpful throughout the entire process and really went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the end product and the fit. We're hoping to work with them again soon! Highly, highly, highly recommend Alx&Co for any of your upcoming wedding jewelry needs!

Fantastic team, excellent service

Tim and the team at Alx&Co have been fantastic in the three years we've known them. We had both of our wedding rings custom made here, after several excellent experiences having jewelry resized, refinished or serviced prior to our wedding. Tim's patience and dedication to creating a product that's a lifelong cherished item was fantastic. Top notch service, reasonable and transparent prices, quick turn-around and good communication. Can't ask for more. But there is more: A perfect dog named Bill to keep you company while work is done on your jewelry.

Alexandria & Company is THE BEST

Meaghan and the team at Alexandria & Company are absolutely, hands down, fantastic. Not only do they have phenomenal taste and make wonderful suggestions, they also listened and understood exactly what my partner and I were looking for in engagement bands. They are very communicative and upfront with expectations and pricing, genuinely interested in making our jewelry as beautiful as possible, and overall kind, accommodating, and welcoming. We have had only good experiences with them and highly recommend using their services for wedding jewelry. 10/10 recommend.

Team

Timothy Shaheen
Timothy Shaheen
Owner, Goldsmith, Principal Designer

Tim is our primary CAD design specialist for all of our custom designs. He meets with clients for custom services and, as an accomplished bench jeweler with fifteen years of experience, he sets and finishes many of his own custom-created CAD designs. With clients, Tim offers a low-key, patient perspective towards design and excels at executing extremely complicated antique-inspired custom creations. Good to know: creative craft runs in Tim’s family. His Uncle Ralph Dammann designs and creates gorgeous mandocellos and other string instruments from his Charlottesville, Virginia workshop.

Tim lives in town with his wife (Meaghan), son, and yellow lab. He travels as much as possible with his family and loses his mind once a year when the Caps are in the playoffs.

With an eye towards quality and service, she loves bringing a traditional craft to a new audience through our shop. Meaghan curates our showroom collection and is a knowledgeable resource on ethically-derived options for jewelry fabrication. She works directly with clients to design custom heirlooms and is in the process of earning her GIA Gemological degree. She is GIA certified in Diamonds and Diamond Grading.

When not at Alx&Co., Meaghan can be found chasing her young son around town or hiking in the Shenandoah with Tim. She is also the founder of The Seedling Collective, a creative studio in Old Town designed for retail pop-ups, workshops, and other projects.
