Ralph Dixon, founder of R.L. Dixon Ltd. began his jewellery career at the
tender age of 14 sweeping floors and running errands for Skelton
Jewellers in Montreal. In the late 50's, though only 25 years of age, he
was a master jeweller, and had created dazzling platinum and diamond
designs for many of the firm's well-to-do and often famous clients,
among them, Princess Margaret and President Eisenhower.
Ralph became known for his honesty, diligence and innovative approach
to manufacturing and design, and never forgot that his customers came
first.
R.L.Dixon (Ontario) Ltd. opened in Ottawa in 1977 based on the same
principles. Most of the jewellery is still hand-made, custom-made and
manufactured on the premises.
Ralph buys diamonds and colour stones directly and with
uncompromising standards. R.L. Dixon clients make
informed decisions with confidence because we take the time to
educate our clientele.
