Tiffany R.

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.

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!

Amazing! Came in to get my wife's engagement ring overhauled for our 15 year anniversary on a tight budget and Dylan came through. He took the time to show me some what the ring could look like, explained what I was buying and explained the settings to me. The two ladies in the store helped me to pick out the rite cut and my wife loved it. We will definitely be back in the future.

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!

Custom ring

Staff was so helpful and nice. I had a custom ring made and am thrilled with the final results. They really know their craft and it shows.

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.

Do they only custom design rings? Do they make custom earrings or pendants?

They can make earrings and pendants. I had all three made there and I have a stud earring being made with them right now.

It is kind of a gift shopping miracle spot. Now, before I go start convincing everyone that I am super selfless, I admit that most times I find the perfect piece for that special someone, I also find the perfect piece for myself. I mean, when it is meant to be, it is meant to be, right?! My Limbo collection is legit and my jewelry box would be sparse without it. You might be wondering why I am just now leaving a Yelp review if I have been such a loyal shopper after all these years...? Well long story short, my 5 year marriage anniversary is fast approaching, and as I was just sitting here admiring my LIMBO DESIGNED STACKED ENGAGEMENT RING AND BANDS, I got all emotional recounting the incredible design build process my now husband and I went through with Edson (Limbo founder and lead designer) and Anne (Limbo co-owner and all around Limbo maven). They took their time to create something special and unique to us, that we would want to wear on our hands forever!!! The entire experience (from design inception to fittings) was in the top 3 coolest things I have ever done, and 5 years later I am even more grateful for our decision to go work with such artists to create a piece I love more and more everyday.

Also which I won't receive until around 10/9/26 because it's on backorder lol. That's ok though because I've got my Kendra Scott case, ring stand, and wristlet. I'm ready to go! I love coming to this location, grabbing a drink from the cafe, and browsing all of the latest pieces. I don't always buy but that's ok because I love looking at everything. There are just so many lovely items to look at from the fashion jewelry lines to the fine jewelry pieces. One of my decorate things about the store is The Color Bar. It's a really fun creative outlet to be able to design your own jewelry. I've actually done it for myself and for friends. I've made pieces here as gifts for friends to make them more personal and important. In general, prices range depending on what you're looking at. With that said, there is affordability Service is always the best. Whether you're spending $50 or $500 you're treated with the upmost care and attention.

Review #1,077 Posted on 6.17.26…read more We came here on Monday the 8th to grab some local coffee when in town for my buddies 50th in Austin. We stopped in after some coffee nearby and my wife and nephew looked around for a bit and tried on a bunch of different jewelry while there. The pricing here is very affordable, and the customer service was excellent, they were there to answer any questions you had, but no to overbearing on your pressuring you with anything. We learned afterwards that this was the original flagship store, kind of a cool detail. I would recommend this spot to anyone, it's very affordable and had lots of options too. As a bonus there's a coffee shop inside also, they've got snacks/treats to go along with the coffee options too, I'm guessing people stop in here for coffee just by itself.

Also if you are bringing your kid (minor) make sure you have a copy of their passport/birth certificate, or state issues id. Anyhoo.. nice folks, clean place, good relaxing vibes. We walked in mid week in Dec. No appointment a bit past lunch time. Its in the same shop area as la la land coffee off congress. We went mid week knowing there was a 15$ discount for non weekend days. Our 1st time with needle piercing. The longest part with a minor in needing documentation of a gov/ state ID. Seriously TX.. it seems like theres more laws around minors getting their ears pierced or gender bathroom drama vs gun ownership.. insane. Not STUDS fault. Nice folks who helped us feel comfortable right from hello, helped us pick out flat back studs for my daughters 2nd piercing. All in was about 170.00ish. $50 per ear then the flat back studs $35ish for each. Pain level 5 out of 10 (10 being worst) with the needle method vs mall gun 8/10 says my middle school daughter who gets very anxious quickly. She said is was just a pinch like getting a flu shot. All in all we'd go back. The piercer was very good with infection control (i work in the medical field). They marked the spot and wasn't rushing when we decided on the optimal spot. Paperwork took longer than the 2, 2nd hole piercings. My daughters eat wasn't red hot like the blunt mall gun post needle procedure. Id go back to get more piercings even with the cost being a lot more than the gun piercing method at the malls. Would be super fun to come with friends to get the ear dazzled and take home a bit o Austin.
