My cousin Ryan Morley is so much more to me than family – he’s one of the best people I know! Currently, this go-getter is building a business from the ground up. In early June, he opened Monocle Jewelers, a hip and unique jewelry store in  Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. You may be wondering how a young man ends up in the jewelry business. Ryan was literally born into it. His mother, Erika, was sole owner of Ryan’s Jewelry. His namesake store, Ryan grew up inside those walls, gaining appreciation, knowledge, and passion for the business. Even though having a store named after you is pretty dang cool, Ryan seized the opportunity to re-brand the business.

Making sure to incorporate the history of his mother’s store, Ryan, who is GIA-Diamond certified, worked to set his business apart. In order to expand the store’s reach to the younger demographic, he created a hip and eclectic atmosphere.

I’m happy to be providing impeccable service to the Eastern Upper Peninsula as a second generation owner and jeweler, leading a reputable independent jewelry store. I love making special moments, like purchasing an engagement ring, as personable and seamless as possible. –  Ryan Morley, Owner, Monocle Jewelers

Ryan strives to create a custom, one-of-a-kind experience no matter what geographic location. He has a third generation goldsmith that handles repairs of all kinds, proving a huge asset to the company. Pieces range from fun silver pieces, like various custom made Upper Peninsula inspired pieces, to unique diamond jewelry. Monocle Jewelers is seasonal jewelry store that treats each repair and purchase with the same care they would a family heirloom. I can say, without a doubt, that Ryan Morley is the best at what he does. Monocle Jewelers offers a personable touch to the often mundane jewelry buying experience.
