Master Jeweller & Ceo

David Hayman

David Hayman opened David Hayman Jewellers in 1981. With over 40 years of experience in the jewelry industry, he was on a mission to create beautiful, one of a kind jewelry designs that would be loved and handed down for generations.

In college, David studied art and specialized in 3-Dimensional design. After taking his first jewelry class, he fell in love with miniature sculpture by creating one of a kind commissions in silver, and then gold. Soon after, people began asking him to add diamonds and colored stones to his designs. David apprenticed to a very talented bench jeweler to perfect the art of setting stones.

Whether it is replacing a battery, ring sizing, or hand fabricating a one of a kind piece, Efrain will get the job done right! He is patient and has superior attention to detail.
