I can, actually, say that I have known Alice Klein for so many years now. Ever since I saw here designs for the first time, I became a fan. Yes, and you can tell that, as well, since you have seen frequent posts about this talented jeweler and designer in Bethany Beach, Delaware.
I am happy to say that TKO is one of my new advertisers on AboutMyBeaches. You can find the banner on the right hand side of this website. All you have to do is click on it and you will find yourselves on her website. Her website has samples of her work and plenty of information. But, the best way to appreciate the beauty of her desings is by visiting her shop, right in Downtown Bethany Beach.
Alice H. Klen is the President of TKO Designs. It is located at 100 Garfield Parkway, #6, Bethany Beach, DE 19930. Tel. 302-539-6992. Website? http://www.alicehklein-tko.com.
Alice is originally from Milwaukee, but has made the Bethany Beach her home since 1990. Her husband, Bryant Clark is also a jeweler. You might see him at TKO from time to time.
TKO Designs are recognizable. Alice has a unique way of presenting a beautiful stone in its best light. Her designs are modern and they stand out. They catch a person’s eye.
Her craft is an art. Alice is a professional and works with plastics and resins, precious and semi-precious stones, pearls, gold, gold filled, silver and Swaroski crystals.
Her designs are affordable; it depends what you want.
Her custom pieces are of the highest quality stones and materials…you will pay more for those.
Alice can also give a new lift to old and tired settings. Just bring them by for her to give you an estimate.
Stop in…you can also meet JoAnne, her niece, who also works at TKO.
Welcome TKO Designs!! Thanks. Have a good one!!

TKO’s pieces have different price ranges. You can pick up something for a friend or Alice can make a one of a kind piece, especially for you or that person in mind. She can also redesign your dated jewelry.
Also at TKO you will find hard at work, her niece, JoAnne. And, even thought I did not see Bryant, her husband, the other day, you might find him there, as well. He is also a jeweler.
Remember, Sunday is Mother’s Day….just in case you forgot.
This is just a small sample of what’s at TKO in Bethany. The website is also a reflection of this talented jeweler.
Gosh…I almost forgot the rings. Nice and big, making a statement this summer at the beach!!

I have known Alice Klein for so many years now. I always remind her that I am such a loyal customer having bought a lot of her jewelry for myself, as well as for many of my friends. I have also come to know her husband, Bryant Clark, also a jeweler. This couple works together 24/7.
I wrote a post on 9/3/09 about T.K.O. and if you would like to read it, please click on the month of September on the left hand of this blog, under Archives and scroll down to the date. In it there is more information on this unique jeweler.
T.K.O. is located on 100 Atlantic Ave., # 6 & 7, Bethany Beach. Tel. 302-539-6992. Cell phone is 302-841-9088. Website is www.alicehklein-tko.com.
It is true when they say that if your job is your passion, you will never work a day in your life.
You can tell Alice is into her work; plastics, precious and semi-precious stones, pearls, gold, gold filled and silver are the materials she utilizes to make unique pieces of jewelry, recognized by the ones that know her creations.
She has been in busines for 30 years and I consider her designs to have that edge that set them apart from the ordinary.
I stopped the other day to get a present and she had so many pretty new designs. I have said it before, that the pictures and even the website do not do justice to her pieces. You have to visit the store to get the full effect.
Alice loves her custom work. Customers are known to bring their outdated jewelry and Alice will give them a “face lift”.
She has beautiful pearls and a great collection of color stones.
At T.K.O. you will find just a little something for yourself for as low as $18 or you can just splurge and spend into the thousands.
Most of all, I think Alice and Bryant, are known for the individualized attention offered the moment you step into their store.
Alice and Bryant; a couple that has been able to work together for so many years also find time to play together, as well. What do they like to do? Extreme kite surfing.
Here is a peek to some of their pieces.
Natural color fresh water pearls, wrapped in multi-colors of 14kt gold (rose, yellow, white, green)
"Porcupine Necklace" Natural fresh water green pearls, enhanced, with detachable clasp.
Another "Porcupine Necklace"
Tahitian Pearls
Have a great Day!! It feels like Fall!! Talk to you later….
