About Jay King
Over 20 years ago, owner, designer and host Jay King began his lifelong jewelry journey by selling Native American designs to help pay his way through school. About 13 years ago he became a host on HSN for a show called “Santa Fe Silver.” After experiencing quite a success, he continued to sell the southwestern designs and later began to create his own line. Within his designs he wanted to offer the stone wonders of the world he found while traveling. This line, “Mine Finds by Jay King,” has become one of HSN’s most popular shows. As a stone hound and master designer, Jay has helped introduce new and rare stones to the retail public. 
 
"I love what I do. Every day is an adventure; it is amazing what nature provides for us. If you just stop for a moment and imagine what beauty may lie beneath a rocky surface or otherwise mundane looking formation, the possibilities are endless. I am blessed to pursue my passions and feed my soul at the same time.”
 
With this spirit, our design team is constantly redefining southwestern jewelry using new stones and inventive silversmithing to enhance traditional materials and designs.
