Jewelry Designed
Around the Person
Wearing It

Four generations of Feys have been making jewelry in Chicago for more than eighty years. We still do it the same way — one person, one piece, one conversation at a time.

Jewelry is Personal

The pieces people wear longest are the ones tied to something — an engagement, an anniversary, a milestone nobody else understood the weight of. Jewelry earns its place by carrying that forward.

We work with you directly, from the first sketch to the final polish, with attention to proportion, craftsmanship, and how a piece will wear in twenty years. Because we design and produce in-house or locally, what you pay for is the work — not the layers between you and it.

We source deliberately: diamonds through partners we’ve known for decades, and gold through Italian manufacturers whose work we’ve trusted just as long.

Designed Around the Moments That Matter

Designing fine jewelry has been the Fey family's work for four generations. Every ring, every diamond, every custom piece gets the same attention to proportion, wearability, and how it will hold up over decades.

Ninety-nine percent of what we sell is designed and produced in-house or locally. That means direct collaboration, honest answers about how a piece was made, and quality control we can actually stand behind.

Why Fey & Co.

Bespoke Design

Every piece starts with your idea, not a catalog. From choosing the stone to setting the last prong, your jewelry is designed one-on-one and made for you specifically.

Designed & Crafted by Fey

Ninety-nine percent of what we sell is designed and produced in-house or locally, by people we know by name. That's why we can answer any question you have about how your piece was made.

Jewelry for a Lifetime

Resizing, cleaning, repairs, and the occasional rescue after a bad day. We're still here decades after the sale, because a piece meant to last a lifetime needs someone to look after it.

Ethical. Responsible.
Carefully Sourced.

Every diamond sold in our stores is conflict-free, and we hold ourselves well beyond the Kimberley Process standards the industry treats as a finish line. Our stones come through diamantaires we have worked with for decades — partners who can tell us exactly where a stone came from and are accountable for the answer.

Fey & Co. participates in the FairMined initiative of the Alliance for Responsible Mining. And more than 99% of the precious metal in our jewelry is recycled, as is the metal used by every significant designer and vendor we work with.

A Heritage Built Around Diamonds

For decades the Fey family has bought directly from diamantaires around the world, selecting stones on brilliance, balance, and how they actually look in the hand — not on paper grades alone.

We carry both natural and lab grown diamonds. Whichever you choose, you get the same guidance and a straight answer about what you're buying.

Diamond Guide

Pioneers in Diamond Cutting

Before he was a diamond man, Ed Fey was an engineer — he helped build rocket engines for the Apollo program, then worked as a researcher at IIT here in Chicago.

When he turned to diamonds in the early 1970s, years before the personal computer existed, he built the first computer models of diamond cutting anyone had made. That work changed how the industry understood what happens to light inside a stone, and which proportions actually matter.

Four generations in, it’s still the reason we look at a diamond the way we do. This family was never satisfied with the paperwork.

Making Chicago Shine for Over 80 Years

Four generations of Feys have served this city. Today Tom, Ed, Jon, and Alex carry it on — but Teresa has always been the strength behind the company.

Half a century ago, Teresa Fey grew Fey & Co. with an impeccable sense of style and a natural talent for business. The Teresa Collection is named for her, inspired by her passion for customer service and her love of simple, elegant diamond jewelry.

It’s also the clearest statement of what we believe: that one extremely well-made piece is worth a hundred ordinary ones, and that great jewelry is meant to be worn often and handed down. Teresa believed that. It still guides everything we do.

Community Always Comes First

The people who make our jewelry live in the neighborhoods we serve.

Our artists, jewelers, and craftsmen are Chicagoans. Keeping the work here means local jobs, relationships that last decades, and someone we can walk down the hall to talk to when a piece needs attention.
