After getting our appraisals and getting our jewelry back, the watch they appraised and cleaned was running very slow. It was not that way when I dropped it off for appraisal. We paid $50 extra to have the watch cleaned, so assumed they were cleaning the entire watch. When I called to ask if they could take a look at and fix the watch, they told me to bring it in and they would quote me for the fix. I pushed back and they said this happens sometimes - a watch will be cleaned and coincidentally will develop an unrelated problem. That's when I asked if something could have happened when they cleaned the watch. I was told they only cleaned the band and not the watch itself. This was not what was explained when I agreed to the cleaning. Simply stated, they asked if I wanted the watched cleaned for another $50. I think they probably meant the band but that wasn't how it was proposed to me. The quote was $275 to fix it, I find it is very odd that you drop off a perfectly working watch for appraisal and the timing mechanism develops a problem while just sitting there. I don't understanding but will give Daniel's the benefit of the doubt and agree it must have just been bad timing. I'm still happy with Daniel's Jewelry overall but have to knock off one star for the confusion around the appraisal followed by the repair. read more

I had some small repairs (twice). Despite how minor, Valery and her crew treated me like family. They solved my problems at a very low price. They are now are permanent jewelry store. Rick Halpert read more

Daniel's Jewelry - 10K class ring reshaped - Jewelry Near Me - Glenview, Illinois

We came in for our annual cleaning of our wedding rings. The owner, Valerie greeted us & said, "it must be that time," referring to our arrival to drop off our rings for cleaning, polishing, reshaping & checking for any loose stones. We have been long time customers when we relocated from Southern California to Glenview for work downtown. We have purchased earrings, some different pieces from the estate jewelry cabinet & watchbands. All of the staff is quite pleasant & personable. Valerie really knows her field & Arthur crafts, cleans & repairs everything that we have brought in. Valerie helped us pick out a simple band honoring our 40th wedding anniversary. When one of the stones fell out, she replaced the ring promptly. It is really comforting to have a relationship with a trusted jeweler. Thanks, Daniel's Jewelry for all of your years of trusted service & offering of "just right" pieces to purchase. read more

I have been going to Daniel's for about 20 years based on my mother's recommendation. Valerie is amazing - so customer centric! When I am there to pick something up, I can hear her working with customers on designs, appraisals, and purchases and she really knows her stuff. I primarily take my jewelry there for repairs of ANY kind (e.g., ring resizing, changing out clasps for larger sizes, replacing lost stones, checking and repairing prongs on rings, adding/moving charms on my gold charm bracelet, designing and creating bracelets from a long heirloom pearl strand, and even creating charms from a former bracelet to be given as gifts). They are incredibly reasonable and do a great job with EVERY repair. I have also purchased a few pieces from Daniel's including two rings and a bracelet - all of which I love. They have GORGEOUS new and estate jewelry at a myriad of different price points. And although my purchases have been on the lower end of the price point spectrum, they always treat you like you are buying an Elizabeth Taylor diamond. But most importantly to me, is trust. I am bringing in and leaving in their care highly sentimental and, in some cases, very valuable items for repairs. I trust Valerie IMPLICITLY. If I ever get married, this is where I would go for my ring. read more

It is always a pleasure to walk into Daniel's Jewelry in Carillon Square, knowing the staff is experienced, helpful, and truly dedicated to meeting clients' needs. I have been a customer since the 1980s and am always pleased with their service, solutions, reasonable pricing, and FREE ring cleaning! With years of experience, Valery has the best designing talents, vision, and resources. Customers relax, knowing their jewelry is in trusted hands of an honest jeweler. Daniel's Jewelry also has a heart! They support the community as evidenced by their presence at local humanitarian events. I highly recommend Daniel's Jewelers. I don't go to any other jeweler because there's no need to do so. After your first visit, you will return. read more

I was trying to replace a battery in my Timex watch but wasn't able to get the back cover on. Went to a jewelers close to me, but they said there was a good chance the crystal might break and that it would cost me $10. Went to Daniel's and within minutes it was fixed and free of charge! read more

My mom brought her ring to get it repaired on July 22nd and the workers told her that it would be ready in two weeks. Two weeks later, my mom did not receive any phone call from the store and called to see what the status of the ring was. No one picked up and she drove to the location and saw that the store was closed due to the staff being on vacation. A phone number was listed on the sign, however, and my mom called the number and the lady on the other end said to come to the store the following Tuesday (8/15). My mother went to the store on Tuesday (today) and the workers there said that the ring is still not ready and that they will give her a call tomorrow on what the ETA is. As much as I would like to support a business that is family-owned, this type of service is unacceptable. There is a lack of transparency provided by staff for when the ring is available for pick up, and my mom had to go through the lengths to call the business on several occasions and visit the store multiple times for no reason whatsoever. 1/5 Stars. read more

Very knowledgeable, meticulous and trustworthy. Thank you for giving a fair and honest appraisal for our heirloom diamonds. read more

I brought my wedding band to Daniels to have a lost diamond replaced - I am SO glad I did, the results are simply gorgeous. As soon as I saw my ring I said instantly "it looks like new". EVERY diamond was sparkling and beautiful again! The replacement diamond is perfect and they removed all scratches from the gold band! I will be a forever customer - thank you! read more

See all

In all honesty, I was very nervous. I knew nothing about them. I stumbled upon it, no referral. This business is extremely fair, honest, and generous. The female owner even offered to fixed my watch no charge after conducting other business. I absolutely recommend Daniel's. I have no affiliation with any of them, other than being a new customer this week. Val is so gracious and fair. I am 100% happy with Val. She earned my trust, in fact she has my watch in her store which I would normally never allow. 2 thumbs up. Val is a pro. read more

Great service and a wide arrange of jewelry including estate sale pieces. Also great repair service. I have brought several pieces throughout the years and have never been disappointed . read more

ALL the people who work here are impatient and incompetent. Every interaction I've had with them over the phone and in store was frustrating and even insulting. I had a piece of jewelry worked on and the lady was so incredibly arrogant and condescending, I felt uncomfortable questioning her work and giving her instructions. She shut down my ideas and I trusted her to know what she is doing better than me. When I received the piece, I realized that I should have listened to my gut and walked out of there the first day I met her. It's important to mention that I had to wait 5 weeks for a job that was supposed to take 1 week. As I called to check on the status, week after week, I was never given an apology or even an excuse. An irritated voice on the other line would tell me to call next week each time. When I finally received the piece, I wanted to cry. The craftsmanship was so poor, my daughter could have done better in jewelry class. I needed this piece for an event and had no time to walk away and have someone else do the job. I truly believe she banked on this when she delayed the job. She told me I wouldn't have to pay until I see the finished product. But the project was very expensive and she wanted me to be in a position where I couldn't walk away. She got her wish. read more

My watch battery died after 5 years and needed some love with a new crystal. Just stopped in and dropped off the watch, very nice folks inside, took care of me and the watch, even gave me a call with a question on the crystal. All the work was done when qouted and for $5 less. Seems like a very nice family business. read more

Valerie did a wonderful job helping my daughter and future son in law design a beautiful engagement ring.

Daniel's Jewelry has a great staff. Valery is always on point with what I am looking for in a gift. She is very personable, creative and talented. Not to mention every piece of Jewelry she has created is unique. You will not find another walking around on someone else. They are honest, have great integrity as well as a Jewelry craftsman to create and repair on premises! I highly recommend them when you are in the Market for a one of a kind gift for that special someone!! read more

I called them from my cell phone to ask if they dipped jewelry. Daniel answered the phone. I started to explain what I wanted done only to hear him scream at me on the other end to speak English. Needless to say, I never dropped off the jewelry. Daniel needs to take a class in how to deal with people. read more

I have to tell you these people are SOOOOO nice. I needed a watch battery replaced so I went to Daniel's in Glenview. I was in and out so fast. I will definitely go back for any repairs and new jewelry! read more

I had a very good experience at Daniel's Jewelry this week. I called ahead and told them what I was looking for. Co-owner Val called me two days later and said she had some choices for me to come in and look at. She also assisted me with some repair work I had done consisting of soldering, polishing some old rings which now look brand new and selecting a chain. Her suggestions were direct and well informed and I appreciated the knowledgeable input she provided on why she made the suggestions. I've already referred another family member there. read more

This is the worst jeweler I have ever been to. I brought a watch in to get a new battery, work done on the crystal, and get gold plated. They told me this would be no problem. A month and a half went by and I still had not heard from them. I had to call in and see what the status was. Apparentally they had finished the crystal and put a new battery in, but were still looking for someone else to gold plate it. I called back several times to see if they had finished their job. Finally, I told them forget it I will go to someone else. This was just about 3 months later! read more

I love Daniel's!!! I go there for all of my jewelry needs, whether a small job, like getting my wedding rings cleaned, to a large job, like creating a new pendant. Val is always super nice, helpful and knowledgable! She has great instincts with her products. I went to Daniel's for my wedding ring. I explained what I was looking for and Val brought me such great options, I had a difficult time choosing. I've gotten so many raves on my ring set, I know I made the right choice. Last month. my husband & I brought in his heirloom diamond ring from his grandmother. We asked Val to design a pendant for me using his ring. We were astounded by what she created!! It was so beautiful!! She kept the original essence of the ring, so we can remember my husband's grandmother when looking at it, yet the style was new and completely modern. We absolutely love it!! Val did a great job! She made the design process very simple, meeting with us one time in between dropping off the ring & picking it up. The pendant was finished in a timely fashion, right when she said it would be done. And the price was very reasonable. We are 100% happy with Daniel's Jewelry as well as Val. My husband and I highly recommend them to anyone and send all our friends and family there. Thanks a bunch Val!!!! read more

This is the best jewelry store--period. Valery always goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. There is a reason Daniel's has been in business for so long: They provide high-quality work at more than reasonable prices. read more

I've never had worse customer service in my life.... I was constantly talked down to. Also if you even plan to get your jewelry repaired you might as well look it up on YouTube to save yourself the time and money. read more

I had a very good first visit to Daniel's Jewelry store and will be back. I hope that Valery either has the item I'm looking for or can tell me that she can get it for me. Thanks read more

I purchased my wife's wedding ring from Val and Al over 30 years ago. My wife lost it a few months ago and Val worked with my wife designing a ring that my wife loves even more. It took us 4 months of her being very patient with my wife since this was so hard for her to do. Just like 31 plus years ago she hit it out of the park. I could not even think of getting my jewelry anywhere else. Thanks again Val. read more

Went in there to receive an appraisal on a jewelry, walked in there and wasn't greeted right away. I was given attitude since I had to make an appointment for which I didn't know. Point is I didn't feel very welcomed and was asked if this was the last appraisal i would bring in (as if i'm a burden and they don't want my money). I'd suggest look elsewhere before you go here, very disappointing on how i was treated, not sure if it was because I was Hispanic or not. I was planning on going there for customized engagement rings, but thanks to the service i'll go elsewhere. read more

Where else would I go....Val goes above and beyond as always. Love, love, love my ring!! I had to have the diamonds checked, not only did she check how secure they were, she cleaned and polished them! LIKE BRAND NEW!! THANK YOU VAL!! read more

We have been going to Daniel's for nearly 15 years. My inlaws initially referred me and they have been their customers for nearly 25 years. Mr. Daniel and his dauther Valerie designed my wedding ring, have assisted us with all of our major jewelery decisions and have been consistently fair on prices. And, they often have wonderful bargains on estate jewelery. We consider them our family jeweler. read more

I have been going to Daniel's for 15 years and I will never go elsewhere . I have never been dissatisfied with the service, commitment and quality of Val, her father and this store! I trust them explicably! Val is creative, cares, listens and always has time for her clients! read more

I too am amazed by the negative reviews of Daniel's as I have gone to them for years. Val is honest and straightforward - doesn't mince words but is knowledgeable, creative, practical, talented and has a great eye for matching a person's style with the jewelry they are seeking. I made an appointment on a Saturday to have estate jewelry evaluated and even though it was a busy day, she spent 90 minutes with me and was extremely helpful. I have since recommended Daniel's on Next Door and I stand by my recommendation - awesome place! read more

My family had the same jeweler since 1937. 3 generations later my fiancé and I went to the family jeweler. He took good care of us. In 1992 they sold their business. I thought what will we do for our future needs? I moved to Glenview and looked through the phone book for jewelers. I called several, but was not impressed. My sister gave me the name of her jeweler in Morton Grove and I went there. It is 1:00 in the afternoon on a Saturday and I was the only customer. I told them my sister who they know referred me. They surely were not warm or friendly so I walked out. However, upon calling Daniel's I was very impressed. I went to the store and there I met Albert and Valery for the first time. All I needed at the time was to have my diamond ring checked as I caught it in a file drawer and was worried I cracked it. I also needed a watch battery. Valery was so congenial and friendly. She checked the diamond and said it was fine, no cracks. She asked if she could clean the ring and of course I said yes. She then put a battery in my watch. Here it is 24 years later and I am still a customer of Daniel's. They have made custom jewelry for me that is incredible! We have bought other pieces of jewelry as Val knows my taste so well it is actually scary!! I get many compliments on my jewelry and family & friends ask for my jewelers name. I referred many friends and family to them and they are always happy and grateful as at Daniel's they go the extra mile to please you. I had my Dad's 14kt Gold Confirmation ring his Godfather had sent to him from Italy, I loved this ring, but it fit on my thumb. I went to 6 different jewelers to have it sized down and they refused to do it because the ring was quite old 60+ years and they feared they would crack the shank of the ring which would destroy the side designs. Albert was not afraid and guaranteed me he would not crack it. HE DID IT!!!! I was so happy as now I can wear the ring which is now over 90 years old! You will find quality workmanship and fair pricing. My niece's husband bought her a diamond and sapphire bracelet from some Mall Jeweler (stay away from them). Anyhow, my birthstone is sapphire and I fell in love with the bracelet. My husband got me that bracelet from Val's to celebrate our 10th anniversary which is sapphire and my birthstone. It is gorgeous! When my niece saw it she said to her husband, my aunt's bracelet is much bigger than mine. Mine is twice the carat weight and two links had to be removed and Val made earrings out of them. My husband paid only $400.00 more than my niece husband did and twice the carat weight plus earrings!!!! If I could give Daniel's 6 Stars, I would. I have never been disappointed. I read some negative feed back and was stunned as I never was nor did I ever witness any customers treated in such a way that the negative responders wrote. Anyone who knows me, knows how fussy & particular I am.....that is why they ask for the name of my jeweler, my doctors, car salesman, banker and more. They know I only go to First Class kind of people and that is what you get at Daniel's. Don't let those negative feedbacks dissuade you. They probably wanted a 1 carat flawless D color diamond for $1,500.00.......well those days are long gone. It is the 21st Century. Give Daniel's a try and I bet you won't be disappointed.

If you arrive at Daniel's without a claim check, consider yourself SOL. It's well known throughout the Glenview community how the owner will make you jump through hoops over a misplaced ticket. He won't even honor one's drivers license as proof of identification. Just the other day, one of my lawyer friends entered the store without his ticket. He summoned the Glenview police to the retail establishment to settle the score and get his repaired watch back from Daniel's. The moral of the story: Next time you need jewelry and watches serviced, go to Raphael Jewelers at the intersection of Glenview and Waukegan Roads in Glenview. At Raphael, you're treated with respect with or without a stupid claim ticket! read more

If I could give them 0 stars I would, went in to exchange a pair of earrings, the woman who wouldn't help me was on the phone ordering lunch, and found my order but said she couldn't help me even though the item came in a daniel's jewelry box, terrible customer service, she was able to find the fact that indeed my husband bought them there, but said sorry, without a receipt she couldn't help, meanwhile still wondering what she was going to order for lunch! Totally ignored me TERRIBLE!!!! read more

Best jeweler in the Midwest! Loving memories become perfect treasures under the superior skills of Daniel's talented staff.
