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.
The Crumrine family relocated the company to Reno, Nevada in the fall of 1979. Then nestled against the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the Comstock silver mining region, Crumrine continued in the legacy of hand crafted products made in the U.S.A.
In the fall of 2007, M&F Western Products based out of Sulphur Springs, Texas purchased Crumrine Manufacturing. Since then, the company has continued in the hand crafted practices with production facilities in Mexico. They now market and distribute its products in territories in the continental U.S. and around the world.
Each buckle still receives the same hand craftsmanship, hand finishing and hand inspection that went into the company’s earliest products. By using the latest tooling and manufacturing techniques, Crumrine maintains its long-standing edge in the categories of engraving depth, detail, luster of finish and overall merchandise selection. More than ever, Crumrine products are synonymous with the word “keepsake”.
Throughout its 67+ year history, the company has successfully maintained several important operating philosophies. The most notable of these is the company’s continued use of the finest quality manufacturing materials available – without compromise. In addition, Crumrine is committed to the type of professional customer service that ensures real accountability. Crumrine also continues to focus its new product development efforts on creating original styles and designs, with the promise of meeting the latest fashion trends. Last but certainly not least, is Crumrine’s commitment to the lifestyles it serves.
