Title

Howes Diamond Jewelers - We specialize in diamonds. Annually, we travel to Antwerp, Belgium, to buy diamonds directly from the diamond cutters. Antwerp is known as the diamond capitol of the world, because over two-thirds of the worlds supply of polished diamonds are traded here. Buying diamonds directly from the cutters eliminates the middleperson, allowing Howes Diamond Jewelers to offer you lower diamond prices without sacrificing quality.

Description

Excerpted from the website:

While in high school, Bill Howes worked at a retail store and realized that he liked working with people. When his time with the U. S. Navy was over, he entered Bradley University at Peoria, Illinois and took watch making and jewelry repair courses. Upon completion, he worked as an apprentice for a local independent jeweler in downtown La Crosse. Because of his entrepreneurial spirit, Bill opened his first store January, 1964, in an upstairs location in downtown La Crosse with a diamond inventory of $600.00.
