NUMBERED AMONG THE METALS WE CONSIDER PRECIOUS, GOLD, SILVER AND PLATINUM COMPRISE THE FOUNDATIONS OF MOST FINE JEWELRY. HOWEVER, AS MUCH AS WE VALUE THESE GIFTS FROM THE EARTH, NOTHING IN LIFE IS MORE PRECIOUS THAN PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS. FITTINGLY, ONE SUCH PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THE FOUNDATION FROM WHICH THE EXQUISITE TMJ COUTURE FINE JEWELRY LINE CAME INTO BEING. TMJ Couture line really owes its existence to Thomas Markle's relationship with one of his dearest friends and most discerning clients; Ms. Evelyn Worthington. Always gracious, exceptionally refined, and remarkably judicious, Ms. Worthington was well known in Houston social circles as an ardent collector; both of extremely rare dolls and of tasteful fine jewelry While Thomas Markle enjoyed the privilege, and yes, the responsibility, of serving as Ms. Worthington's personal jeweler, their relationship went far beyond mere patronage. The two were so close, the Markle family celebrated Christmas, birthdays, and other special occasions with the great lady. After her passing, and with memories of Ms. Worthington's exquisite tastes in mind, Markle created the TMJ Couture jewelry line. While none of the pieces duplicate anything Ms. Worthington had in her personal collection, both lines are designed with the same discerning consideration Ms. Worthington would have appreciated. Thomas Markle Jewelers Couture is a signature diamond collection, curated specifically for those who seek outstanding design and quality as much as Ms. Worthington did. Comprised of the highest graded conflict-free stones attainable, TMJ Couture offers the distinction and exclusivity Markle's more discerning clients desire. Because the pieces are already created, patrons can enjoy the absolute best of the best without the delays often associated with the creative process such uniquely special pieces require. However, while they are already created, their limited production status is staunchly respected. Meticulously designed by Tom himself, and handcrafted by one of California's most gifted jewelry makers, TMJ Couture encapsulates only the most inimitably distinctive works around. For those most passionate about fine jewelry, and seeking the best of what Mother Nature has to offer, these elite lines of discriminating fine jewelry combine immediacy, rarity, and heart stopping beauty in a manner the fastidious Ms. Worthington would most certainly have appreciated.
