    The day my pendant broke. Literally showing my jewelry & jewelery box to my friend and it broke while I was holding it

    Shoppers Beware - I made (5) transactions with Billy and thought everything was good. I bought a pendant and chain from his store, repaired a bracelet, bought a grill with 12 teeth, and got a custom pendant made. The custom pendant came out nice but customer service and quality is lacking. I gave him a gold necklace to melt down and a jade piece, he quoted a price, middle of transaction he requoted and increased price by $850 due to a mistake his "factory" made. Whatever, I paid it. I wore this piece 5 times within (3) years (yes, I literally went through my selfies and counted). This is not my everyday chain/pendant and it's heavy so I hardly ever wear it. The clasp broke while I was literally holding it. Like it was Saltered fixed together instead of having a pin where the pendant can move freely. He tried to charge me to fix it for wear and tear but I pushed back based on it being a workmanship issue because regardless of how much time passed I barely wore it so there's no excuse. He even said out of his own mouth how good the pendant looked! And I said yeah because I never wear it. After back and forth he agreed to fix it at $0 cost but you can tell we were both frustrated while talking through it. I don't live in the Bay anymore so I had my stepdad pick it up. The pendant came back with (2) chips on it and a purple ink like someone literally drew on it. Photos attached. He said it wasn't like that when he gave it to my dad but the picture from my dad is right after he picked it up. I texted Billy at 330ish telling him my dad was on the way. My dad sent me a picture as soon as he got to the car from picking it up at 4ish. I didn't notice the ink in the picture because 1. I thought it was on the bag and 2. I was hyper focused on the scratch/chip near the clasp. I seen it in person which is now over a month later from getting picked up because like I mentioned I don't live in the Bay anymore. He tried to tell me he didn't give it to us like that. LOL cmon man what +65 year old man walking around with a purple marker and marking up their daughter's jewelry after driving to SJ from SFO to pick it up. Make it make sense. Whatever this is it doesn't come off easy. And the way they colored in the circle on the pendant you can tell this was intentional. My mom warned me and felt some type of way about me doing business with him. She just never trusted it. From me giving him gold to melt down, letting him repair my bracelet (which my mom swears does not look like the same gold), his prices, and even going back to him to repair the pendant. I should've listened. Find a jeweler you can trust. I would never recommend or spend $ with this company again no matter how nice the pieces look. Customer service and integrity means more to me. FYI He's in a different location now where there are a lot of other jewelers. I recommend shopping around! Prior to this incident w/ my custom piece I went to Billy to purchase a clasps for my everyday chain and he tried to charge an outrageous price like +$100 dollars. I went next door and got one for $40.

    Came in looking for a simple gold ring and left with exactly what I wanted. Quyen was extremely helpful with selection and took the time to educate me on different styles. Their selection is pretty vast but even if you can't find exactly what you want they work with you to create customs to get you exactly what you want. I ended up doing a custom and the turnaround was SUPER quick! Everyone in the store is welcoming & respectful. I will definitely be back to get future gifts/ all my jewelry needs here. They are honest and my only regret is I wish I had found them sooner! Nice to know there are trustworthy jewelers right here in the bay

    I want a grill. Can I bring my own gold jewelry for them to repurpose it into a grill?

    Hi we can give you gold credit on the gold you bring us. Which will count towards your piece

    Hi, do you re-plate jewelry? I have a couple rings that need gold re-plating, or rose gold if that's possible. Thanks!

    Hi yes we do. Please come by with the rings!

    Do you coat silver to keep it from tarnishing? I have a heirloom silver wineglass that has tarnished that needs to be polished and coated to prevent tarnishing. Thank you. If you don’t do this, do you know a place that does?

    Hi yes, we can rhodium dip your silver to prevent quick tarnishing. For long term prevention, we can do multiple layers of coating. But this may cost 4-5 times the cost of one dipping

    Will you do name engraving on Hermes bracelet?

    Hello yes we can

    Do yall take walk-ins? Yelp says appointment only. Thanks

    Yes we do take walk ins

    Do you do single tooth grill caps? If so how much?

    Yes, it’s $150

    Hi there. Can you resize 2 rings for me? 1 is a gold ring and the other is silver. How much would this cost please? Thank you.

Her email communication throughout the entire process was prompt and thoughtful. Their displays are stunning, and Eliana even took the time to walk my friend and me through some of their gorgeous pieces. What really stood out was how easy they were to work with, especially when I decided I wanted to change my original stone choice after doing more research. I was honestly nervous to bring it up, but Eliana and Aaron handled it with such grace and genuinely just wanted us to be happy. My ring turned out beautifully, and I'm so in love with it. So grateful for the Geoffrey's team. We'll definitely be back, and we couldn't recommend them more!

We appreciated the help we received from Elena and Darya who were kind and pleasant to work with. However, our interaction with Fanya was off putting and left us feeling uncomfortable. During our visit, she spoke very confidently about the history of mining diamonds in a way that did not align with well-documented historical information we are privy to. The conversation felt dismissive of a serious subject and it made it difficult for us to feel confident moving forward with such an important purchase. When choosing a jeweler for something as meaningful as an engagement ring, trust and transparency matter a lot. While we respect that others may have different experiences, this interaction ultimately led us to continue our search elsewhere. Especially after noticing many of their negative reviews revolved around the owners daughter, this was concerning to us. We wish the business the best, but wanted to share our honest experience for others who are doing the same research we were.
