I am so happy with my choice to go to jewelsmith to reimagine my engagement ring. Mary was so fun to collaborate with on the design and got the vision I had. But more importantly she and the team brought that to reality even better than I imagined. Customer service was outstanding. Highly recommend!

Beth C

I LOVE Jewelsmith!!! I got to get the ring of my dreams created by Tiffany and crafted by Phil!!!! The whole designing process with Tiffany was so fun and collaborative! She truly read my mind and created my perfect ring!

Heidi S

I felt super supported in learning about the process of turning a few pieces of jewelry from my childhood into something I wanted as an adult. Everyone was friendly, professional and knowledgeable.

Tiffany listened to my vision for my ring and helped me design a ring that I am absolutely thrilled to wear!! It was important for me to preserve the diamond from my original engagement ring as the central portion while also adding new elements. This ring does all of those things and makes me smile each time I look at it! Highly recommend and will return to Jewelsmith for all future needs!!

Julie L

This is the third time I’ve worked with Jewelsmith on a custom ring. I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience and the final products. I’ve had old gems set in more modern styles and this time I came in with idea sketched on napkin. My new “napkin” ring is gorgeous! If you want a unique piece of jewelry, this is the place. You know you deserve it. Treat yourself.
