A Family Legacy, Rooted in 1950
Jewelry has been our family's business since our parent company, Don Conkey & Sons, was founded in 1950. As two brothers and third-generation jewelers, we're continuing that legacy through Iris + Mill—our retail brand focused on designing and offering fine jewelry with an emphasis on craftsmanship and transparent pricing.
Iris + Mill Promise
Thoughtfully Crafted and Fairly Priced
Every piece at Iris + Mill begins with our in-house design team in Pittsburgh, PA. From concept to creation, we take a hands-on approach to ensure every design meets our quality standards.
While many of our pieces are handcrafted locally, we also partner with trusted artisans who share our standards. By overseeing design and working closely with our makers, we’re able to offer fine jewelry that’s both thoughtfully crafted and fairly priced.
Our Approach to Quality
We take a hands-on approach to selecting our diamonds and gemstones. While traditional grading systems provide a baseline, we go a step further — meeting with vendors in person and examining stones one by one to choose those that align with our aesthetic and quality standards.
Rather than rely solely on certificates or grades, we focus on the visual beauty and integrity of each individual stone. What you see on our site reflects that personal selection process — guided by our team’s experience and attention to detail.
