We love this beautiful jewelry store. The atmosphere is so welcoming and bright. Gorgeous variety and most all very friendly customer service. The ladies at the front counters are very knowledgeable about the industry. I didn't feel pressured into purchasing anything. When i am ready will be hack to support them. Glad to see a nice local boutique jewelry store. read more

Krista (owner) and Marianne are THE BEST! They are so kind, friendly, and helpful. They have absolutely beautiful jewelry in the shop, it's total eye candy if you love jewelry and beautiful gemstones. They patiently helped me with a ring, and also other jewelry repairs. This is a really special store. I would definitely trust them to design a beautiful custom piece. Their website and social media don't do the store justice. Highly recommend!! read more

My ring was blocked by my knuckle. A different jeweler told me it would cost $120 to resize it. Fisher's said it was just bent out of shape. They quickly made it circular again, then refused my offer to pay. I will gladly support this wonderful neighborhood jewelry store. read more

i am beyond happy with my entire experience at Fisher's. Everyone was so warm, friendly, and accommodating. Stopped in for a jewelry cleaning and all of my jewelry is sparklingggg. They also have a wide selection of beautiful and unique fine jewelry. I will always recommend Fisher's and will absolutely be back. read more

So I've been in here several times over the years and received excellent service from the staff. The jewelry that they make and sell is unique and beautiful. I needed a clasp replaced for my chain this is the first place I thought of because I trust my jewelry with this place. read more

My wedding ring from many years back was stolen recently, and I needed to get some sense of its value for insurance. Krista bent over backwards to help me, even though it wasn't a sale. All I had was a sketch, and she was able to figure out who designed the ring- from 30+ years ago. Fantastic customer service! While I am now using a family heirloom as my wedding ring, it may be time for my husband to get a new ring. The jewelry looked fabulous! read more

Everybody should have a trusted lawyer and a trusted plumber in their address-book. Once you've got those covered (and maybe an I.T. person?), I'd suggest having a trusted jeweler isn't much further down the list. We've been coming to Fisher's ever since we moved to El Cerrito a dozen years ago. They ALWAYS treat us with kindness and patience. (Before EC we lived in Oakland and our family went to Given Gold on Piedmont Ave, they were the ones that originally referred us to Fisher's) For well over a decade, my wife had a wonderful, intricate, 100-year-old estate ring that I found after a very long search. It was so perfect to her style and taste, but my wife is proudly somebody who knows how to work with her hands, and the ring was delicate and frequently needed to be repaired. The jeweler at Fisher's would over-and-over tell us that we really needed to find a newer more durable ring, and he patiently explained to us in detail why this ring couldn't simply be repaired over-and-over without impacting the integrity of the ring, but he also patiently repaired it time-and-again. It took us many years to find the perfect artist to craft a new ring as unique as the first (and re-using the same modest stones). I'm proud to say that we now have a new ring and no longer need to go multiple times a year to Fisher's for repairs. Having not stopped by for over a year now, it was such a pleasant experience today when my wife stopped in to ask for help reshaping her ring after I accidentally smooshed her fingers between the cooler and the car trunk (bad husband!!). The jeweler happened to be in, and he was able to quickly make-perfect my wife's new ring in only a few minutes. We were fully ready to compensate them for their time, it made my wife's whole day when they said she didn't even owe him any payment for his time other than to have a Happy Thanksgiving. We're thankful for the kind people at Fisher's for sure! Experiences like this are why we consider them our regular jewelers. Any time we need a professional repair, appraisal, cleaning, etc., this is the place we come. It also doesn't hurt that they have lots of beautiful baubles from local artists on display for us to come in and see whenever we are walking on Solano. read more

Friendly and helpful, with a great selection! They helped me with multiple repairs (with no wait), and helped me select a great anniversary gift for my wife from their great collection. Highly recommended!! read more

My husband and I went in for an appraisal on my Vera Wang Engangement ring which he purchased from Zales for me back in 2017. There was a little blonde girl who helped up and took my ring and said it was fake and make of brass. I felt she was prejudice toward us since by how we were dressed and how we looked. She was so insecure when she even spoke to us. You can tell by the way her demeanor was that we weren't welcome the moment we stepped in that building. You shouldn't waste your time here, unless you're some cookie-cutter, snobby, yuppie Berkeley vibe. Otherwise, don't go here. We went for an appraisal up the street at Oaks Jewelers and we got so much help from a gentleman named Jeff. He was very informative on what our options were since we did get our ring repaired by another jeweler in Castro Valley years ago. read more

I am so happy with the results of resetting my engagement ring with Krista. I love the new ring and she was able to produce a new setting better than I had imagined. I also purchased my wedding ring here, as well as had heirloom earrings cleaned and appraised before my wedding. Fisher's is my go to jeweler! read more

I first became a customer of Fisher's about 30 years ago. Over the years, their wonderful staff has helped me choose exquisite special occasion gifts for friends, appraised and repaired items dear to me, and offered trustworthy, expert advice. On a recent visit, Krista, their G.I.A. certified gemologist, was exceptionally warm and helpful. Since I know pretty much nothing about gems or pricing, it is an incredible relief to find someone so knowledgeable whom I know I can thoroughly trust. The jewelry in the store is lovely, and Fisher's would be my first choice whenever I want to buy a special gift -- but I'd also highly recommend them for repairs and reliable appraisals. Above all, I appreciate their customer service: honesty, warmth, and genuine care. Thank you, Krista! read more

We're so grateful to Krista for designing our beautiful wedding rings! From start to finish, she was enthusiastic, patient, and flexible, running with our unusual design idea and crafting it into reality. She was happy to keep tweaking things until we were totally happy- and we are! Everyone at the store was always friendly and helpful. read more

This is as good a wedding announcement as any I will make, guys! Some of you have known Trung and I since we met. We're sealing the deal and getting married sometime in the next couple of months. We were actually introduced VIA a Yelp party his sister brought him to (back when we did stuff like meet in person at DYL's) about 6 years ago. If you don't know what a DYL is, don't worry about it, that liquor soaked chapter of our lives is over. Heh, right. Anyway- Fisher's. The first time I came into this small Solano storefront was a few years ago in December. I parked in front of the shop to get a haircut at Supercuts across the street. After my cut (which was okay!) I noticed a festive holiday party was underway and checked out Fisher's Custom jewelry, had some champagne, and chatted up friends and family of the jewelers featured there, as well as some of the jewelers themselves. I had a great time but didn't buy anything. After shopping around a little bit once we decided to get engaged, we really hadn't found what we were looking for. Yeah, I'm kind of a control freak/opinionated about jewelery and this wasn't something Trung was going to purchase on his own or surprise me with, so we ended up going the custom route here. Once the process started it was so comfortable we knew we'd come to the right place. Not only convenient for us because it's here in the East Bay, but also not pushy, or sleazy, or loud and overwhelming, but just easy going and down to earth. It was incredibly fun and a little nerve wracking to choose everything myself, but we used a estate piece that's pictured in one of the business photos here on Yelp as a model and inspiration- it's a little larger than mine, and of course vintage, so mine has that vibe but it's brand new and in yellow gold. I think the most fun part was selecting a loose diamond. Christa ordered a few in our price range, that would work in the setting, and I got to check them all out. The choice was clear- and size DOES matter in this department, as much as I thought otherwise when the process started. Wink. Now that I've had my engagement ring the better part of a year, I still love it, and our wedding bands are almost done. As fate would have it, one of the gentleman I met that night in December happened to be the jeweler Trung chose to custom make his band! I highly recommend Fishers. I feel they offer a good value for their services and pieces, and really make you feel like part of the family once you start working with them. We've been able to pay in installments, pay by phone, receive lots of personalized attention, and just have a good time when we come in. I can't wait to see our bands!! Cheers and big Hugs to the Yelp Community. read more

I believe everyone needs a trusted jeweler in their entourage; absolutely reliable and absolutely adaptable to YOUR particular need in the moment. Fisher's is that jeweler. I have gone there to talk though buying fine jewelry for 30 years. Krista ( and Toni) have always helped. I already knew that. But when I had a death in the family and was clueless as to what to do next, because of our long- established relationship Krista bent over backwards to help me. So, in large and small decisions about quality jewelry, trust Fisher's. Buy from Fisher's. You can depend on their help to actually help. Amazing. read more

Very happy with my wedding ring, which my wife bought here 20 some odd years ago. They've re-blacked the engraved portion twice for free and I probably need to get it sized up one now that I'm old and fat. Very nice people, good prices, great pieces. read more

We have been buying from Fishers for over 13 years. They are the best to work with and have such amazing pieces! read more

See all

Gracious service whether I was purchasing a new item made of gold or having a custom conversion of a treasured piece with faux ruby and pearls. I am happy to drive to the shop from Oakland knowing that Fisher's has gone the extra mile for me even on an inexpensive task. read more

Best customer service ever- lovely ladies who run it. Go here if you're looking for something special.

Rings were purchased here in 1994 and 2007 to very happy customers. Great service that is both low pressure and thorough. The friendly neighbourhood vibe just adds the comfort of this place. read more

Christa and the team at Fisher's Jewelry are phenomenal! They've been fixing rings and necklaces for our family for years. I came to them looking to have a custom engagement ring created. They were patient, knowledgeable and stuck to my budget. They are currently creating my matching wedding band, which I can't wait to see. I love supporting this local business who actually cares about each person and their personal taste! I'm so glad that I went to Fishers instead of ordering some impersonal ring online. read more

My wife bought her wedding ring from your store. We live in San Francisco and today, in planning a visit to your store, we consulted your website, your Facebook page, and your answering machine message. Neither of these three sources accurately posted your hours for this week, and the fact that you'll be closed until January 1. This is horrible customer service, made worse by the relative ease with which this could have been remedied. A simple change in your answering machine message or FB page would have saved us a lot of time on the road and grief in dealing with traffic. Your customer service and treatment of repeat customers is absolutely awful. read more

I had my engagement ring made here. It's a nice place with friendly women working the store. Most of the jewelry here is either A. not my style or B. out of my price range anyway, but it has a welcoming neighborhood vibe about it. That was important to me when I was leaving my precious stones behind. So I had my ring made here and it wasn't a complicated design. In fact, I had photos of what I wanted since it was just replacing a ring I had lost. Anyway, it didn't come out they way I had wanted---close but not quite. I suppose that's a lesson in having jewelry custom made? Not sure. But I have confidence in the honesty of this business. Nothing sketchy or questionable about them. read more

I went in here to have some items appraised. The staff members were extremely helpful and kind during the process, taking the time to examine each item in detail and explain the process to me. During the appraisal, I noticed how unique collection is. I'm not much of a jewelry person, but their designs are very beautiful in a way that is much more interesting than the typical stuff you'd see elsewhere. Great service, beautiful products. read more

I called the store and asked if they could do a gemstone ID for me and was told they could. When I arrived at the store I was greeted by Krista who guessed it was aquamarine by first glance. She then did a refractive measurement on her device and confirmed that it was indeed an aquamarine. She wouldn't take any money for the service. I was so impressed that I also gave her another gemstone to put in a ring setting for my wife. The service was outstanding and the price very reasonable. read more

I Recently bought an engagement ring on Blue Nile and wanted to make sure the GIA report matched the actual diamond that was on the ring and was appraised at the right value. Now a days there are so many scams from buying on the Internet and no one wants to get ripped off. Blue Nile had a good reputation and delivered when the ring came in the mail. So the next step was to get it checked by a local jeweler. I Called another jewelry place to see if they did appraisals and he said he would charge $550 to check it and needed an appointment. I didn't agree to the price so he recommended I check with Fishers in Albany. I called Fishers and was told that my engagement ring can be quickly check for free and if I wanted it appraised it would cost around $100, which was reasonable. So I walked in and Krista was more than glad to check my diamond and GIA. She saw that the diamond inscription number matches the report and even gave me a rough appraisal of my diamond. Her customer service is top of the line and I plan on coming back as a valued customer for Future purchases and any jewelry needs. read more

First class in every way. From the jewellry they sell to the simple, inexpensive adjustments and repairs. My first choice every time read more

Being a really picky lover of fine jewelry I'm pretty hard to please. But Fisher's is one of those really great neighborhood jewelry shops with a professional, welcoming, honest and generous staff....in particular, Krista and Toni. I've been shopping at Fishers for years and have always had a wonderful experience....from purchasing the smallest item for my daughter to having custom pieces made for myself. When it's time for gift giving my husband knows where to go! I'm to pick up a gorgeous ring I've had reset and I'm sure I will be as pleased with it as with everything else I've purchased from them. read more

I came to Fisher's because I needed some appraisals for my mom's jewelry. I don't really wear jewelry and needed some guidance on these pieces that were passed down to me. They staff was amazing. Friendly and very helpful. They gave me great advice and estimates for my jewelry. They didn't charge me which was insane! I brought in 12 pieces and they spent at least an hour and half with me going over values. Sadly they were valued a lot less than I thought. Maybe that's why they felt bad about charging me? Or just nice I think. They were great about telling me about some auctions I could try or repurposing some of the diamonds into a more stylish setting. Even though I don't wear much jewelry I can say they had some really neat vintage inspired custom jewelry in their cases. Such a great place. read more

This place is a great resource to have something appraised, look no further. I took a 20.00 flea market find in to have it accessed and they were super professional, insightful and honest with me. I would highly recommend them for any appraisal you might have. it turns out this 20.00 find is worth around 3,000 or more! That made me very happy, junky flea markets have evidently paid off! read more

Wonderful jewelry shop on Solano Ave! I took my family heirloom engagement ring there for an appraisal and cleaning and they did a wonderful job with it. I was never once worried or concerned about the ring the moment I dropped it off, even though I tend to be a bit of a worrier. The people there were very trustworthy and friendly from the get-go that it assuaged any fears I might have had. read more

I highly recommend this place. The customer service is above and beyond amazing. I've been in twice both times the woman working (I wish I knew her name) was super friendly and helpful. First visit, I brought in a family heirloom ring that I wanted a little more information on. She gave me an appraisal, a background on the stones and metal, and cleaned the ring. After taking up almost an hour of her time, I asked her what I owe and she said that it was free!!! I went back today to get a wedding band that my fiancé made me stretched a little bit. Again, super friendly, forthright about what I could reasonably expect, and immediate service. Remembering my previous visit, instead of asking what I owed, I rephrased the question and asked if I could please pay her for the help. She refused. So nice!!!! I left with a warm heart. Awesome! read more

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place! we got both my wedding band and my husbands band here. the service here is so personal. we were treated like family. the women that own the shop spent so much time talking with us, showing us rings, talking to their designers and reps to find exactly what we wanted. they put a rush job on my band so i could have it in time for the wedding. i witnessed one of the women handling a very narcissitic and annoying male customer with such grace and kindness. i wanted to slap him but she provided him with excellent service despite his aggravating style! also, unlike any other jewelry store experience. . .zero sales pressure. read more

It is nice to be remembered and taken care of. I brought my wedding ring set in to have it sized up. We had our ring sets made a Fisher's over ten years ago. I was welcomed into the shop as if I had been in the store only a few weeks ago. My rings were sized up quickly with only a minimal charge for materials. They look brand new and fit again! It is so nice to be able to drop off something that is priceless to you and not need to worry at all. I have recommended the shop in the past and will continue to do so in the future. These folks know how to do business and do it well. read more

Just went in to Fisher's to get my wedding and engagement ring cleaned (free service for life when you buy your rings there). Without prompting, the owner checks my engagement ring to make sure the diamonds are intact and the settings are still good. She says she wants to tighten the settings up. I didn't realize my ring came with a lifetime warranty and couldn't be more pleased with how much they truly care about the quality of what they sell and making sure your treasures last forever! The selection of rings (which I couldn't help but check out while I was there) is just gorgeous and they have so many original and special pieces. They really have a range of pricing options for any budget. I rarely leave a business feeling so valued and taken care of. Fisher's is the best! read more

This a bit of an insider's view of the store, as I am a designer of jewelry myself and sell my pieces at Fisher's. If you're looking for a store with zero, and I mean absolutely, zero attitude, then you've found your store. Krista, the owner, and Toni and Amanda, the other sales ladies are the most likable and helpful staff you could ever deal with. Absolutely no pretension or snobbery. They make customers feel welcome and comfortable. I've been in the store numerous times, and I always witness the same consistent behavior and attitude towards their customers. They are professional, yet personable and friendly. Downright cute, too... As for the jewelry, it is a boutique-styled store featuring lots of hand-made one-of-a-kind art jewelry pieces made by local and not-so-local small artists. You will find interesting and unusual pieces not found in other stores. They also feature a giant case of engagement rings and wedding bands ranging from 14k and 18kt Gold, Platinum, Mokume and Titanium. Krista is a Graduate Gemologist and they offer appraisal services for insurance purposes. They feature Ideal Cut diamonds and offer design and custom jewelry services as well as excellent repairs and stone setting. And if you're wondering why I might be writing this review, it's simply because I've been servicing the jewelry trade here in the Bay Area for over 20 years and have not had a more delightful or enjoyable business to be associated with and feel that others should know what a wonderful and awesome jewelry store this is. read more

I am from out of town. The service and selection is always top notch at this jewelry store. I like that there are a variety of items in terms of both style and price point. Mostly though, I really appreciate feeling like a valued customer even if I am just in their shop to look. Thank you! read more

My now husband worked with the ladies here to design my engagement ring. It is so beautiful and unique. We went on to get both our bands and my wedding day earings here. They have a lot of local designers, which we liked. My band ended up being 300 less than it was marked at. What was amazing to me was I had already agreed on the higher price. 6 weeks later I go to pick up and they tell me my ring was priced wrong. And my grooms ring was also a little less. I would have been none the wiser. They could have just pocketed the money, but insread they were honest and transparent. We will be using them for all our jewelry needs. I also have to say how comfortable the store is. Honestly jewelry stores can be intimidating. They are friendly, no pressurea and they have beautiful jewelry at lots of price points. There are things for less than 200 dollars. My day of earings were bought 2 days before my wedding as an after thought. Very affordable. Could hace paid the same for costume jewelry at Nordstrom's. read more

Lovely staff, lovely shop, excellent work all around. Could not be happier with Fisher's!

I have purchased a number of items from Fisher's for my wife over many years. The pieces have been loved and worn, some daily by her. Thx Fisher's! read more

Great taste! I have been buying jewelry from Fisher's since at least 1998, probably before. My wife is very picky. She hates glitz, and only likes classy and understated jewelry, never old fashioned, never heavy or bulky. I spend many hours every year looking for what she likes. I have bought more jewelry for her from Fisher's than from all the other stores that I have bought from together. Over the years, this may be 12 or 15 pieces, maybe more:-) If you are looking for really classy, original and beautiful jewelry, Fisher's is a great bet - the best place I know in the Bay Area. read more
