I recently purchased a custom ring for my wife for our 25th wedding anniversary. As you can guess, the pressure was on for this ring as I could not "drop the ball" on something this important. Alex was absolutely AWESOME in working patiently with me to create the perfect ring for my wife. Happy to say that she said "yes" again when I proposed again so thanks to Alex and the team at Caleesi Designs Jewelers for helping me to "close the deal" again! I would highly recommend them for any special jewelry that you might need for any occasion. Thanks again Alex - you are the BEST! read more

Loved working with Elizabeth on my custom ring! Communication was clear, the team was always ahead of schedule, and the finished product was EXACTLY what I had dreamed up, but *better*. Looking forward to working with them again soon. read more

I'm absolutely speechless--in the best way! Caleesi exceeded my expectations by helping me redesign and modernize a treasured family heirloom ring. The blue stone originally belonged to my grandfather and was set in his ring. After he passed, my mom had it reset in the 1980s and added the diamond. Caleesi thoughtfully repurposed the original gold and helped me create something new and uniquely mine while honoring its history. When I saw the finished piece, I was completely overcome with emotion. The result is stunning, and I couldn't be more grateful for the care and artistry that went into it. read more

I was so excited about visiting Caleesi to custom make a band for my S.O.'s engagement ring. I made an appointment to discuss design and pricing. We had already purchased the GIA Certified Diamond from another source and a custom band, simple but elegant, was needed to compliment the beautiful diamond we had. It also fit my girls personality. The store was small &humble, displayed selection beautiful, and very well maintained. I met with the jeweler and shared the design my girl liked. He was very professional and polite. After a few moments of discussing the ring he went into a back room to come up with a price. This is where things took a turn. We have already had 2 other quotes from reputable sources; one in San Diego and One in New York City. These are both custom jewelers with great reviews and reputations; thus, I had already an idea of what this was going to cost me. Id prefer to stay local, give my business to one of the top rated jewelers in Austin, and even pay a little more to do so. When the price was delivered, it was ridiculously high. I was disappointed, even to say shocked. I didn't even want to negotiate, not sure if they would anyway. I traveled 45 min to this place all excited, but left disappointed and robbed of my happy experience. So much so, I felt compelled to write this review. I was even prepared to pay slightly more to keep my business local, but this price was 2.5 times higher than the others. Now, San Diego and NYC are pricey locations to begin with, so imagine the awe when a local quote from Austin was that much more. I love Austin, but seriously come on. This is not Cali or NYC, nor priced that way. Its expensive here, no doubt but for jeweler services? Caleesi is nice, but not Beverly Hills nice. read more

I recently brought in my late father's rings to be resized and added sizing beads. These hold sentimental value to me, and I loved how they looked worn with the memory that reminded me of how he wore them. When I picked them up I was shocked and disappointed to find that they had been polished to a high shine. They looked like completely different rings and not the ones I remembered and cherished. I understand that jewelers often polish after resizing but I wish I had been asked first or at least given the option to decline polishing. Changing the finish without consent can really alter the meaning the piece carries. While the resizing itself was done the lack of communication about altering their appearance was heartbreaking. I would advise anyone bringing in sentimental pieces to clearly state their preferences. Additionally the sizing bead spacing is also inconsistent even though both rings were meant to be the same size. One ring fits comfortably while the other causes pain because the beads were placed closer together. They did offer to correct it. I've brought pieces here over time and overall I do think they do a good job. Despite this and a couple other hiccups in the past I do believe they do quality work. Unfortunately, after my most recent experience I will not be returning. read more

I would 100000% recommend Caleesi Designs Jewelers to ANYONE looking for custom jewelry, especially engagement rings! Rayla was a complete pleasure to work with - she was a ROCKSTAR the entire time. Her patience, communication, availability, responsiveness, customer service, professionalism, knowledge/experience/skill - all of the above were TOP NOTCH the entire time I worked with her. We went through a ton of design iterations until we narrowed it down to the final product. When I say my fiancée LOVES her ring, I can honestly say that I don't think Rayla/Caleesi could have done any better. My fiancée has told me half a billion times that the ring is "completely perfect", "exactly what she always dreamt of", "her favorite thing in the entire world", etc. She is a doctor who works in a VA hospital and thus meets/treats new people daily. From the sounds of it, she receives compliments on her ring on a pretty much daily basis.... A huge thank you to Rayla and Caleesi! I could not have imagined/hoped for a better experience! read more

Amazing! Came in to get my wife's engagement ring overhauled for our 15 year anniversary on a tight budget and Dylan came through.

Alex was very knowledgeable and creative in helping me create a custom necklace for my wife's 70th birthday. She saved me after another jeweler backed out, and I realized I should have engaged Caleesi from the beginning! I recommend them to create one of a kind custom pieces that will become family heirlooms. read more

10/10 experience here. Was looking for a local Jeweler and Caleesi did not disappoint. Went to 5-6 different spots and the service and quality here is unmatched. Worked with Elizabeth and she was 10/10 service and welcoming. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an engagement ring or any other items. read more

Genuinely stunning craftsmanship and service. My fiancé worked with Alex to create the most beautiful ring ever. She provided him with the best feedback and guidance to craft a unique, lovingly-made engagement ring. I loved it so much that I went back to Alex to create a custom men's band. With his ring, she put in so much work, time, and effort to make another gorgeous piece of jewelry. He absolutely loves it and is already wearing it everyday. Alex exceeded our expectations from beginning to end! I've recommended Caleesi to every one possible since. read more

I wanted something untraditional for my engagement ring and Rayla absolutely delivered! It was such an easy experience and Rayla helped walk us through every step. One of the things that helped me a lot during the design process is that they send you a CAD rendering of your ring and will build you a mold so that you get an idea of what the ring will look like before you finalize it. I loved the selection of gemstones Rayla scouted for me- it was so hard picking just one! That said, I'm absolutely obsessed with the end result. Thank you Rayla and the Caleesi team! read more

Drop everything and get over here immediately! I beg you not to shop online other than for ideas because once you step foot in here, you'll know this is who you want to get your ring from. I walked in with an idea for a male engagement ring and I couldn't find anything I truly loved because I was so set on my vision. No biggie they make custom jewelry based on your ideas and said vision. Rayla who is an angel was so excited to execute and help bring the idea to life. Her excitement made me feel so at ease and the experience start to finish was seamless and most importantly the communication was 5 stars . Also when we needed to make adjustments or changes it's amazing to know you have someone like Rayla advocating for you so you get exactly what you want. Service, speed, communication and above all excellence. I can't recommend them enough. read more

Went to almost every jewelry store in austin looking for a ring that felt like "me" and kept getting disappointed. Was about to give up, when I stopped into Caleesi this morning. Everyone here is so warm and helpful. Can definitely feel that it's a family business. I walked out having designed my dream wedding stack and couldn't be happier or more excited. I would go here first when looking for jewelry. :) read more

I got a a ring to stack on my wife's engagement and wedding ring. The ring turned out fine. I did not know this stackable ring was supposed to be different from the wedding ring. Now I have a ring my wife wont wear. I wish someone wouldve explained ring culture to me. read more

I'm very much in love with this ring my fiancé and I made with Caleesi! The pictures just don't do it justice! Dani was so helpful and made our ideas come to life. And it was ready quite fast!

I went in needing repairs on both my engagement ring and wedding band and they delivered both at high quality and super quickly. My titanium engagement ring was warped so badly I couldn't wear it anymore, and they got it rounded back out while I stood there. I was also looking to size it up a quarter size- they gave me their opinion to maybe wait to decide on that, but I was certain I needed it and they were happy to make it happen for me! My wedding band had lost a small diamond, which they replaced for a super reasonable price, and I can't even tell which one was missing! I was shocked when I got an email within the same business day that my jewelry was ready for pickup. I was excited to go pick it up and they were all happy to have made my day, and remembered me from earlier. Thanks so much for the repairs and for shining my rings back up too :) read more

My fiancé went to another local jeweler of which we were unhappy with. They didn't listen to him on CAD corrections nor even make it in the correct size. His receipt even had 5 3/4 printed on it, yet they casted it in a size 7. After the proposal, I got to meet with that jeweler and requested we please find another jeweler. It was the exceptional reviews of Caleesi that brought us here. It was their superb customer service and attention to detail that kept us here. We not only designed my wedding band and engagement ring, but also my fiancé's wedding band. (I'm not posting the review of his ring yet bc we are yet to be wed and he wants it to be a surprise. Let's just say they did a fabulous job there too! It was important to us to have all of our rings cast at the same time from the same pour of 18K gold. It is extremely sentimental to us and they delivered!) As for my rings, we began with a vision of a ring I saw from a NY jeweler. I had also desired to add some "hippie crystals" in hidden places. Steve and his team fully embraced my vision and worked with me every step of the way. We ended up with two options for my engagement ring. Steve so kindly wax printed BOTH to help me decide on which would be my forever ring. It was really a cool experience to get to design, view CAD drawings, see 3D imaging, and play with wax printings of our designs. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole process from beginning to end. Not only are the team at Caleesi stand up humans, their craftsmanship and artful eye are the best in Austin and beyond! I highly, WE highly, recommend them. Thank you Steve, Rayla, and Team Caleesi! You each made this experience so joyful for us. I will forever remember the moment when Steve sat down with us to show us the final product. As soon as Jacob, my fiancé, went to put the engagement ring on my finger...I lost it! So many appreciative happy tears. Not gonna lie, I may have seen some tears filling up Steve's eyes as well. Actually all three of us...mine just were most visible. Haha So much that the jewelry mascot pup Chili came over to my rescue to comfort me. I had to explain to her they were happy tears, pure joy! Thank you again everyone! read more

I love Caleesi Designs. I went to a couple of places to check out custom design options for a tourmaline ring. They had a gorgeous watermelon stone, and Cathy and Rayla worked with me to land on just the right design. The whole process was a lot of fun, and Rayla tweaked the design for me a couple of times after I saw the CAD renderings and wax castings. It's really hard to do this ring justice with pics, but I'm so happy with the way the ring turned out! (Also the two smaller rings in the pics are also from Caleesi). read more

I had a horrible experience. I had Caleesi create a bracelet. Out of cabochon's, a necklace my mother had given me upon her death. The bracelet was made incorrectly. I wore it for two years and had it repaired 15 times! Finally I had it remade and the jeweler told me that Steve did not use a heavy enough chain to support the cabochon's I provided. Also, the gold did not match. It was 14 karat gold but it was like a rose color and not the same yellow color gold that my bracelet was. It was a failure!!!! After two years of 14 or so repairs I finally have my bracelet redone and I'm happy with my new bracelet not from Caleesi! Don't go to Caleesi!! read more

I am thrilled with everyone at Caleesi and I'm recommending to all my friends! Over a decade ago my now husband got me a cute diamond heart pendant. It's not my style anymore but the sentimental value remains. I wanted to get the diamonds reset into an eternity band and came to Caleesi. Chelsea was amazing to work with. She was so enthusiastic and excited to help. She sat down with me and scrolled through pages of eternity band settings with me. She recognized the type of setting on my wedding band (single shared prong) and came up with the brilliant idea of using the same type of setting for the eternity band. The price was more than fair (this wasn't my first quote) and it took only 10 days! I now wear my beautiful ring every day, either as a more minimalist alternative to my wedding band or alone on the hand. 10/10...would recommend! read more

Resized engagement ring for me about 4 times as my finger size kept fluctuating. Reasonable pricing and great customer service !!!

The team at Caleesi Designs are top-notch! We wanted to keep my fiancé's heirloom ring in the family that was passed down from her grandmother, but had no idea where to start. With this being a priceless piece, we knew we needed to find someone we could trust. Not only were we overwhelmed with trust, but Chelsea, Cathy, and Steve went above our expectations to ensure we were comfortable and excited throughout the entire process. Their combination of patience and professionalism allowed us to design the perfect ring with incredible attention to detail. Oh and they also quickly designed a men's ring that compliments the style and design - really knocked it out of the park! We now have two gorgeous rings that embody our love and excite us to pass down to future generations. Nothing but appreciation and gratitude for the work done by Caleesi Designs! read more

I bookmarked Caleesi jewelers a few years ago because of their excellent reviews. Only recently did I want to explore some options to make matching ID bracelets with gps coordinates where my wife and I met. I initially found a different business to buy the bracelets from and Caleesi Jewelers agreed to engrave them. It turned out the ID part of each bracelet was hollow and they couldn't engrave. I worked with Dylan and he offered to custom make the bracelet to my liking and engrave it for me, all within a few days of needing them. The prices were similar, so it was a no brainer to return my other bracelets and let Caleesi do their magic. Dylan was fantastic to work with and ensured I was happy with the final product. They turned out beautiful and since custom jewelry is not mass produced, is it perfect? No. But is it perfect to me & my wife? Yes! I was so grateful at their willingness to make a few tweaks, and love the bracelet's outcome and meaning. This jewelry spot will be my go-to and Dylan, if you're reading this, I truly am grateful! read more

I recently had a ring repaired and they did an excellent job. My large stone fell out of the setting after 20 years - it is a unique stone but semi-precious and not "fine jewelry" but important to me. They repaired the ring with no judgement and were very pleasant to deal with. read more

Amazing experience with Caleesi Designs!! They gave me excellent service from the moment I walked in, to a very quick turn around time!

Went in to get an idea of cost on an engagement ring and I fell in love with the staff. They are dedicated, passionate, and don't settle for less than perfect which is why I went back to them for my ring. They made the entire process of buying a diamond and having a custom ring designed and made so much more comfortable and easy than I thought. When the original design we talked about would not look as good as we had hoped, they were honest and helped come up with a more elegant and better solution. The final product design speaks for itself and I could not be happier! Can't wait to give this to my soon to be fiancé! read more

They were able to resize a ring that others said was not possible. Did a fantastic job and are very professional. Excellent all around!

Came in to get my lost engagement ring recreated. It was part of a two piece ring set, so I brought the other piece with me along with some reference photos of the original ring. I was told that they might not be able to get it exactly right, and the rings might just have to be stacked on top of each other instead of interlocking like the originals were. Well, when I came back to try on the sample of the ring they made, it was pretty close to perfect. They were even able to get the two pieces to fit together just as they had originally. On top of that, the new ring was ready for pickup after only 3 days when they quoted me up to two weeks. Overall I'm VERY happy with it, and I didn't have to tell my mother in law that I lost part of her mother's ring! read more
