Who we are

A MULTIGENERATIONAL FAMILY BUSINESS

With 47 years of experience, you can feel confident in us whether you are purchasing a new piece of jewelry or dropping off an heirloom for repair. All repairs will be stored securely in our safe when not being worked on by our jeweler.

Our team takes pride in their drive to create high quality and elegant pieces of jewelry. We want to create something for you that can't be had anywhere else.

JEWELRY MEANT TO LAST GENERATIONS

Located in the heart of Denton Square, First Peoples Jewelers has been a Denton staple since 1974! Dedication to fine craftsmanship has been the guiding principle for owner Frank Zangerl since 1974. Frank's abundance of passion is evident in the plethora of custom jewelry, wedding rings, and heirlooms that can be seen around town on any given day. Following not far behind her father, Brooke Zangerl is a wealth of knowledge on diamonds, gemstones, and custom jewelry.

After completing her GIA Gemologist Degree in New York, Brooke returned to Denton, ushering in a new generation of jewelers. Frank and Brooke are both committed to upholding the same standard of service and quality you've known and loved for over 50 years.
