    April 1,2021 Just picked up my finished pieces from Mr Armbruster and I am so happy with the results! One ring was upgraded to six prongs on one ring and another was resized, both looked pretty sad when I brought them in.....today they look brand spanking new....Mahalo Mr.Armbruster as usual you did a super fantastic job! I am so grateful for your professional work!!! Shoutout to Mr Armbruster: Mahalo, mahalo! So happy you are in Aiea repair my watches n many other pieces. Your professionalism and dependability are gratefully appreciated! Stay safe n b well during this pandemic....to you and your beautiful Ohana!

    To all my friends in HAWAII, if you looking to purchase custom made jewelry, I recommend you go see my guy "Pual". The best Goldsmith on the island and the price is always right. (He offers military discount). Tell him "Fernando" sent you, I get nothing out of it. I want you to save $$$ My story: the first piece he sold me was a custom 14k gold bracelet for my wife, which he sold to me at almost half the price of what the NEX custom jewelry section quoted me (which is run by a local vendor). Pual reminds me of the jewelers I deal with in the Diamond District, NY, NY. Since I've been here he has sold me 4 custom made pieces. Oh and he also repairs gold. Don't get ripped off!

    Have all my custom Hawaiian heirloom jewelry made here. My wife has known Paul Ambruester for over 30 years and the jewelry he has made over the years is high quality.

    I brought an Amethyst stone in and requested to have a custom gold ring made. Paul went above and beyond. He created a masterpiece. My coworker and longtime friend recommended him to me. I'm definitely pleased with the outcome.

    My daughters BEAUTIFUL name plate

    My husband and I was looking for a jeweler to make a gold name plate for my daughter. We ended up going with Paul and I'm so glad we did. The name plate is BEAUTIFUL!!! When my husband brought it home and gave it to her, she was so happy and has not taken it off since. Paul is very knowledgeable, he worked with our budget and made this experience painless. I will absolutely be a returning customer. PAUL YOU ARE AMAZING

    Heard about Elson's Goldsmith from right here on Yelp and the five-star reviews are accurate!…read more I needed to get a minor repair done on this gold chain and stopped into one other store before going to Elson's. The other shop gave me weird vibes, so I decided to give Elson's a try since everyone in the reviews had nothing but positive things to say. I emailed them in the morning and decided to call as well to check if they take walk-in repairs. The person I spoke with happened to be the owner's brother and they said yes, just come on down--so I did just that! I was welcomed in by Elson Jr., the owner's brother and person I spoke with on the phone, and he told me they could repair the chain for $50 and get it done in about 30 minutes. Good deal in my opinion! So I waited in the store and not even 15 minutes later, the chain was repaired *AND* Elson said they cleaned it! Highly, highly recommend these guys for jewelry repairs if you live near ʻAiea or even if you can drive in from elsewhere on Oʻahu. Mahalo again to Elson and Calin, both of whom provided excellent customer service and attention to my request!

    Update: Elson's has since moved! They are no longer above Times. They are now across from downtown…read morePearlridge (Pali Momi Street), next to California Rock N Sushi and Blue Tropix. Ample parking. It is right next to where Toys R Us used to be, and to get to the parking you will need to turn in at the light by Big City Diner. The new store is a definite upgrade to the old location! It was a little confusing for me to find as you can't see Elson's from the parking lot. You will have to walk out through a pathway to get to Pali Momi Street and walk to where the store faces the street. You will need to get buzzed in for security reasons. They have a small jewelry selection available that is ready to purchase, but it seems they do a lot of custom work. I primarily come here for repairs! I've replaced missing pave diamonds and just had a repair done today for a bracelet I had where a pear shaped diamond fell out. I unfortunately did not have the diamond, but they had a similar natural diamond on hand and were able to repair it in about 20 minutes! Repair cost was about $100 less than I was quoted to mail it back to the jewelry company that I purchased it from in the mainland. Saved money and got it back right away. I will always come here for jewelry repair needs!

Very nice man with a nice haircut and sense of humor! I was interested in getting a necklace with my initial on it and they had a lot of options, with different chain styles, sizes both mm and length. I decided to do the 20in. box chain as it's dainty and very pretty. Thank you for the awesome experience and it didn't break the bank so thank goodness lol. He walked me through the customization process if I also wanted to do a custom ring in the future and also wrote down the ring size I looked at and other size chain I was considering so I have something to refer to. They also do free cleanings on the jewelry purchased from them! Mahalo RHHJ! Will be returning soon!

I took it in about two months ago for an appraisal and they sent it downtown and then they called me to come pick it up, but there was no appraisal, so I went back and let them know. They told me that they would figure it out and let me know why the appraisal didn't come back, but no one ever got back to me so then I called and reminded them and now it's months later and still, nobody got back to me, I'm super disappointed because that's not the way you treat a good customer. It's not the only piece that I have bought from them. I don't think I'll be spending my money at that store anymore.

System is quite smart as you're free to brows to your heart content since all inventory are behind glass which is a safer viewing and if you're ready for any help all you need to do is sign in at the counter and they will call you when it's your turn. I do really wish that they have what each of the crystals represent along with the names of them to take with you as I do know the basic though am a total novice to the more selective ones...though I'm sure you can ask as well as some of us are not that familiar with it all. Many of the crystals are large and do have smaller ones in a different area though not able to please all is understandable it's not quite a jewelry crafters place even if they have that decent section just wished it was more. it's super solid here that certainly shines bright!

Skip ahead to my most recent interaction, I was in search of a gold piece and with the rise in golds price lately, everywhere has upped their price substantially... I firmly believed I could get it here for a more reasonable price based off previous transactions Ive had with them, I tried visiting the store 2 days in a row but they were closed, I guess they were on vacation? Eventually they were back and open for business so I gave them a visit, aunty wasn't there but I decided to see if a deal could be made, went in and the first thing I heard the guy say to another customer was "go try find cheaper somewhere else" I told him what I was looking for and he points to the glass case, asked him the price and weight, price per gram was worse and more over priced than the places I went to before visiting (window shopping other jewelry stores while they were closed for those couple days) He asked me what price i was looking for and I told him what the cheapest price was that I found, he then goes on and tells me how unrealistic my price was and starts talking to me as if i know nothing about gold. Long story short he ruined the whole vibe of his store and I wont be coming back, went to get the piece from said other place for the better "unrealistic price".

She graciously and patiently allowed me to see and try on a few of her rose gold( my favorite) pieces. Right now there is a 60% + 10% off sale going on.
