Island Treasures: Mountain Gold Jewelers

Often called “the best little jewelry store on the Kohala Coast,” Mountain Gold Jewelers is a different kind of jewelry store and design studio.

Moses Thrasher, founder of Mountain Gold Jewelers, has a long history of offering original fine jewelry creations and repair services that are affordable and accessible to everyone.

A tradition of outstanding design, extraordinary workmanship, and exemplary customer service sets Mountain Gold Jewelers apart from others in this industry.

Moses started his business on Maui in 1977 and moved to Hawai‘i Island in 1986. He has been a goldsmith for more than 40 years, working comfortably in 14K, 18K, and platinum. From his workbench prominently displayed in the store, Moses can design and make anything you can imagine.

In addition to design, Moses is exceptionally talented in intricate jewelry repair, alteration, and restoration. He shares, “My focus has always been on providing a range of choices for jewelry customers who seek quality and value. For this reason, I design and provide jewelry to meet my customers’ taste and expectation for excellence and attention to detail. Most of my clients are local residents, so I have learned to keep their budget in mind. I constantly challenge myself to find the most efficient design or repair solution, and try to offer two or more alternatives.”

Although much of the jewelry is designed and crafted by Moses, jewelry by other designers and manufacturers is displayed as well. This allows customers a wider variety of choices.

Featuring diamonds, opals, and pearls of all kinds, Mountain Gold Jewelers is also well known as a source for estate and antique jewelry. His love and understanding of this genre of jewelry has won Moses the trust and acclaim of individuals, retail jewelers, museums, and galleries.

Mountain Gold Jewelers exemplifies the best of handcrafted, artisan gold jewelry. His commitment to excellence in design and workmanship has earned Moses a large following of local, national, and international clients over the years.
