Golden Artistry Jewelery
Terry and his team were amazing. From the moment we first walked in the door until the moment we picked up
the finished product, they were friendly and never stopped helping me get exactly what I wanted. My fiancé
and I found a ring we loved, but wanted to make some changes, including swapping out some very hard to find stones (benitoite).

Over the past 20 plus years I have accumulated quite a collection of jewelry art designed by Terry Whyte. The pieces
are too many to mentions but are all special in their own way. Not only do my pieces warm my heart every time I wear
them, or simply look at them in their case, but they always catch the eye of those that see them. My jewelry from
Terry symbolizes much of my life and the life of my family; from wedding rings, anniversary bands, birth of my
daughters, graduations, new beginnings and to simply say "I love you"... more...
...and fun times. The artful creativity and love that Terry has put into my jewelry always seems to express
exactly how I feel. It takes little discussion when designing, and trusting that Terry will deliver
the perfect piece, has never failed. I have shed many tears in Terry's shop overwhelmed with
emotions, both admiring the beauty of a piece and knowing that Terry has put his heart and soul
into his work, just for me, no, I’m sure for everyone he works for. I am grateful for the gift that
Terry has been given and has shared with me. I am proud to call him my jeweler and prouder to call
him my friend.
Thank you Terry. With all my love, C. L.

Terry Whyte's designs have always been uniquely brilliant. I witnessed him, over 35 years ago, creating masterpieces
out of his garage in La Mesa. He was a barefoot surfer with vision and passion. His raw talent, and faith in his
dreams is now inspiring young people all over the county. His work is awe-inspiring!

Terry is an amazing artist.. i took a ring that was my mothers and had him convert it into a necklace for
for new sister-in-law. it was unbelievable and brought a tear to everyones eye... it was also the ring
my brother had given mom on year for her birthday (she is now gone) but would have loved the new
addition to the family. He created an beautiful, one of a kind family heirloom for us....

Terry and his staff listen, then create on the premises inspired works of art. They have taken
old jewelry and respected the setting, but re-invented it. They have also found stones
and gems, and gone organic to cosmic, natural to eclectic, always with an eye for beauty
and style.
A small sampling of what our
customers have said over the years...
"We can track the milestones of our marriage by the jewelry that you have created for us."
