About Jay King
Jay King is an American gemologist, explorer, and jewelry designer who built his reputation by traveling to remote mines across the globe — from the deserts of the American Southwest to the mountains of South America and Africa — in search of rare and unusual stones. His brand, DTR (Desert Rose Trading), was founded on the philosophy that every gemstone has a story, and that jewelry should connect the wearer directly to the earth that produced it.
King became widely known through his long-running appearances on HSN (Home Shopping Network), where his infectious passion for mineralogy and his "Mine Finds" collections earned him a devoted following of collectors and gem enthusiasts. His pieces are distinguished by their use of bold, natural, often unpolished stones set in solid 925 sterling silver — a signature aesthetic that celebrates the raw beauty of the earth rather than masking it. Authentic Jay King pieces, especially those with original packaging, are increasingly collectible on the secondary market.
