Crumrine Gold & Silversmiths is one of the world's largest and most progressive manufacturers of belt buckles, jewelry and accessories. Crumrine began as a small jewelry manufacturer in Santa Ana, California in 1948. Founded by Charles and Marjorie Crumrine, the operation grew to become Orange County's largest custom jewelry design, production and repair business.
In the early sixties, Charles began developing a specialized manufacturing process that allowed for the production of "hand-engraved" buckles and jewelry in large quantities. This process was the first of its kind in the world. Not only did this development satisfy the demands of the company's growing customer base, it established the company as one of the world's most innovative and capable western metal products manufacturers. Continued refinement in this process has allowed Crumrine to offer a product line that is recognized as the market leader in both value for the dollar and consistency in quality.
The Crumrine family relocated the company to Reno, Nevada in the fall of 1979.
