Alloy Custom Jewelers is a great example of local entrepreneurship in action. Founded by father-son team Aram and Sam Susong, the Cedar Falls business has built its reputation around creativity, craftsmanship, and creating jewelry that is personal.

What makes Alloy stand out is the experience they create for their clients. Instead of simply choosing a ring or necklace from a display case, customers work directly with Aram and Sam to design something built specifically for them. Whether it’s an engagement ring, a redesigned family heirloom, or a completely custom piece, every project starts with a conversation and comes to life right here in the Cedar Valley.

There’s also something fun about seeing a father-son team build a business together. Their personalities and passion for the work come through in the process, and that energy makes the studio feel welcoming, creative, and approachable. It’s the kind of place where customers feel part of the design process instead of just making a purchase.

In a world full of mass-produced products, Alloy Custom Jewelers brings something refreshingly personal to the Cedar Valley.
