Me and my brightest jewel, my wonderful daughter.

My name is Kathy Patterson and I am the proud owner of Center Stage Jewels. 

We are located in Allentown, Pennsylvania and am so glad to have you stop by my site...here's a little bit about me:

I started out collecting vintage jewelry in my mid-20's.  When out antiquing, the sparkle of the rhinestones in the dealer's cases always caught my eye.  The next thing you know, I was filling drawers, shoe boxes, tupperware, every nook and cranny of my home with vintage jewels.  I had to start selling (as most collectors do) in order to feed my habit - and thus my first website was born:  Vintage Trinkets Costume Jewelry. 

I took a break from the business in 2001 and in 2007, my girlfriend Sheryl Hamilton offered to sell me her business, "The Family Jools".  I jumped at the chance because Sheryl had some absolutely STUNNING jewelry in her inventory and jumping back into the business re-lit the fire and passion that I have for these wonderful costume beauties.

If you're looking for anything in particular, PLEASE don't hesitate to contact me.  I have some wonderful beauties not listed on my site.  I have recently re-located to Allentown from Calgary, Alberta and I brought a wonderful stock of Sherman jewelry with me.  You can read more about this beautiful designer jewelry on my "Sherman Resource and Information Guide".

I really look forward to doing business with you, getting to know you and talking jewels with you.  And CONGRATULATIONS for not being "ordinary".  Wear vintage with pride!

Keep on sparkling!

Kathy Patterson
