BODY GEMS

Body Gems is a family business that was founded in 1994. The Collins family has been in the jewelry business since the mid 1970s. The vision of Body Gems came from Jack Collins who witnessed a line out the door of a local piercing studio in 1994. Jack noticed the type of metal they were using in everyone's piercings and told his son Scott that they should make all of the basic styles in gold. (Light bulb moment)... Our staff injects lots of personality here at Body Gems central. At some point, the mutual love for cats of the crew spawned into "Meow-er hour" at 3pm each day and the employees began to meow. All of this meowing mayhem inspired Josh to create our popular "Meow" ring. And so the Meow ring was born and has been a hit since we introduced it in 2015.
