Rather than just using a bunch of Jewelry jargon and terminology, she walked me through with what I'm looking at and was very transparent while advocating for me. It was a lot to take in and she helped me calmly go through my options and most importantly explain the benefits of each aspect. I will gladly recommend Colonial Jewelers for quality and exceptional customer service.

My ring was a family heirloom from my fiancé. Oscar kept the original design, designed the custom band, and sized it to my finger. I was extremely happy when I received it. The diamond was brighter than before due to the changes Oscar made. It exceeded all my expectations!

He showed us how neat the steel looks as it ages, helped the Husband pick out what metal he wanted on his skin and was great to work with. Everything in that shop is amazing. He doesn't make the Damascus steel himself, a friend does(I think it's the only thing he doesn't make in his shop), but he's extremely knowledgable about it and owns some great pieces of his own. We're so happy with how my husband's ring turned out! We'll be going back to Zaruba when looking for awesome pieces of jewelry in the future.

I also had a custom ring designed at his former gallery in 22k granulated gold with diamonds and garnets that I provided. Wish I still lived in Maryland so I could visit his new shop!

When I tried calling this business no one would get back to me. After several additional tries I finally talked to someone at the store about my problem. The clerk told me to call back in May of 2024, which is now almost a year after the watch was supposedly fixed, because the owner had health issues. When I tried calling again in May, once again no one had the courtesy of getting back to me. If you want your watch repaired, don't go to this business. They only want your money and could care less about trying to work with you.

My mom has known the owners for more than 25 years. We only go there for any repairs. I took my mom's Movado watch in for a new battery. This is the first battery it's ever needed. The grandson reluctantly changed the battery and handed the watch back to me without even setting the time. And for some reason a piece of dust just appeared on the face of the watch that wasn't there before he opened it. He claimed that the dust was already there. I knew it certainly was not. Then he claimed that sometimes dust shows up when a watch is opened. Ok, then get it out! The smug twits don't offer to get the dust out or do anything to address my concern. I'm still kind to them because the owners wife is there and now she realizes that she knows my mother. She tells me that the battery is free of charge. I don't care about the battery charge, I want the watch returned looking the same way in which it was presented. Unfortunately I'll need to take the watch to a real jeweler now because the service at Gold Thumb is now trash.

I am extremely unhappy about the way I was treated by the male owner of this shop. I brought in a nameplate necklace that is 22k gold to have the chain shortened a bit. The necklace was to be shortened from the back!! Instead he took the necklace and made it shorter from the FRONT!! Now the loops look completely wonky and unattractive. The loops are not smooth and the nameplate just lifts up while I'm wearing it. When I took it back for them to look at it the male was extremely rude to me and tried to blame the mistake on my previous jeweler. I have attached photos of his shoddy work. I am so disappointed and will NEVER recommend this place to anyone.
