Cannot recommend JR's enough. We came in wanting to design a custom engagement ring, and they made…read morethe whole process easy and we felt cared for the entire way. We had a specific vision: a unique piece with subtle pink stones set into a hidden halo. Getting the exact color right turned out to be tricky, but instead of just settling, they worked with us and swapped out the original stones for ones that matched exactly what we were going for. That kind of patience and commitment to getting it perfect is rare. They also let us use our own diamond, which a lot of places won't do, and they built the setting around it beautifully. The finished ring came out even better than we imagined. Their prices are extremely fair too, which is extremely refreshing compared to some other shops in the area. Finally everyone in the store is fantastic and so nice. You never feel rushed or pressured, just genuinely taken care of. If you're looking for a custom piece (or great jewelry from people who actually care), this is the place. Five stars, easy. Thanks everyone so much! We will be back to design our wedding rings!

J R's Diamonds is the ONLY place I will ever buy jewelry. I can't tell you how many times over the…read morelast 4 decades I have gone to a mall jewelry store, then come to J R's and found out how badly the other stores were trying to rip me off. Jeff (and his staff) know more about diamonds than everyone else in the city combined. Over the years, I have probably made 50+ purchases at this business, with total confidence. I have saved thousands of dollars, but more importantly, since I TRUST them implicitly, it takes all the stress out of buying big ticket items. Every appraisal turns out to be accurate, and validated down the road. Jeff understands the market, and has TAUGHT me about VALUE for the majority of my life. I have never regretted anything I have invested my hard-earned money in here, even after following up and checking the competition. And this trust is also well-placed if I have something I want to sell. Jeff and his staff always give me the exact information and guidance that I need to make good decisions. My latest good decision is pictured here. A very special and unique diamond engagement ring, designed and created by J R's, based on my fiancé's heart's desire. It came out PERFECTLY. She was completely blown away, knees shaking with happiness when I opened the J R's jewelry box and revealed this gorgeous ring yesterday. And every person who has seen it so far is impressed if not overwhelmed. Of course, that is exactly what I wanted. I am so happy (way more than just "satisfied"), that I can't wait to come back to the store to show them how elegant it looks on her finger, and to show them her ear-to-ear smile, which hasn't lessened since the moment she saw it, and to express my undying appreciation. The people who work here actually care about me (and all their customers), and will absolutely share my joy. Take my word for it: Before you consider opening your pocketbook for an investment like this, you NEED Jeff (and co.) watching out for you.

From what he said I don't think he's even started on it. Now it's supposed to be ready on Saturday, almost 4 weeks from the time I gave it to him!!! At the time of this review I still do not have my ring. If I could give zero stars I would. This is one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had. I took my antique ring to get repaired and have the stone replaced which was green tourmaline. I gave him a piece of tourmaline and the ring. One of the prongs had come loose and needed to be repaired along with the stone to be cut and polished and put in. He said it would take 2 weeks. I called after a week to check the progress. He said he had not even started on it. I called a week later. He said it would be done by the end of the week. I called at the end of the week. No answer. I went by and there was a sign that said he would be gone untill Tuesday which is today. I went by again. The sign is gone but the door is locked. The owner does not pick up the phone and his voicemail is full. It is now 3 weeks and I still do not have my ring. All I want is my ring back at this point so I can take it somewhere else. This ring is extremely important to me and is an antique. Do not use this guy. Worst experience ever!!!!!

I am always a little leery of jewelers because I've had pieces switched out and other things. But the moment I walked in here I was greeted with a smile and friendly welcome. I have now been in probably five times or so with and without my mom. We both had pieces that needed to be fixed. Every time we walk in no matter who is working, we have greeted and treated so nicely. I have full trust in them. And I will continue to use them for future jewelry repair or purchases. And I will always recommend this place to friends. They are very knowledgeable. I loved some of the pieces they have for purchase in the shop. They offer custom work. Today I walked in and wanted to show them a necklace my dog accidentally ripped off my neck. I just wanted the pendant checked and make sure it was secure. It's a family heirloom and means the world to me. I would've so upset if it came off the chain. She checked it and fixed it for me immediately. I asked how much I owed and she said nothing. It was so kind of them to fix it for me. Now I won't be worried I might lose it. It meant the world to me. I highly recommend this place.
