Everything was perfect especially my ring

I just want to express my thanks to Frank for creating the exact engagement ring I have always wanted. He and Matthew made everything easy from the moment we walked in and they had different diamond options for us to choose from. I ended up finding the perfect diamond and Frank had my beautiful rose gold ring custom made so the diamond would fit perfectly on it. And it does! Glad I decided to make an appointment here and give them a shot. They've earned my business for life.

I contacted Gem Dynasty and explained that I wanted to upgrade the diamond in my wedding ring to a real beautiful diamond. I told them my budget and asked if they could work with me? Matthew told me to come in. That was the best decision I made. I met with Frank and immediately felt connected. He was very professional, honest and patient. He really worked with me and my budget, far exceeding anything I could have hoped. My new ring is so beautiful it is everything I imagined. Thank you Frank and Matthew I am a very happy camper I rate this business 10 out of 10 and I would recommend this business to everyone I know.

Gem Dynasty helped my fiancé create the most beautiful engagement ring. Frank is very knowledgeable and taught my fiancé about clarity and color of diamonds. His staff is nothing but kind. His front desk assistant even cried when I showed her the proposal! They made my fiancé and I feel like family. Thanks to Frank and his staff, I have a BEAUTIFUL rock on my finger! I would recommend this plan in heartbeat!

Frank and Matthew from Gem Dynasty totally went above and beyond my expectations and price... my mother gave me her wedding ring, and they not only made a new one.. but took the old diamonds from my mother's ring and made a custom earring for me and renewed my father's wrist bracelet and added a diamond and was crazy below my budget! It was a perfect win for me and will e back for more... thanks Guys...

Engagement Ring!

Frank was a pleasure to work with. Gem Dynasty has the best selection and great prices on high quality diamonds. They had a great selection to chose from.

This is my new wedding anniversary. Her name is Juliet and Julia!

Frank Poor is absolutely the finest jeweler you will ever find! Looking for something extraordinary for your special lady or even yourself I truly recommend going to GEM DYNASTY. Just call his wonderful administrative assistant Terry and she'll make your appointment. Frank are Terry are the more kindest awesome people you'll ever know. I guarantee it!!' Carol S.

I had a wonderful experience at Gem Dynasty. My main purpose was to sell a diamond ring; Frank made me an offer on the spot. In addition to buying the diamond, he allowed me to keep the ring and gave me a stone of my liking. He set the stone and cleaned the ring at no charge. I have never heard of a jeweler that would do this for their customers. I was skeptical about selling my diamond to a jeweler, but Frank's professionalism and honesty really made me feel comfortable. I knew that I wasn't being taken advantage of. I will definitely come back to purchase a diamond. Frank & Terry are true professionals. Highly recommended.

We worked with…read moreMeryvn, and from the very beginning he was incredibly honest, upfront, and transparent about pricing and gold weight. We had been shopping around and comparing several jewelers, and he was by far the most straightforward and informative. Meryvn is also extremely charismatic and easy to work with -- he made what can feel like an overwhelming process actually enjoyable. He took the time to explain everything about the gold quality, weight, and pricing so we felt confident in what we were buying. No pressure, no gimmicks -- just real information and fair numbers. We ended up finding our dream solid 14k gold wedding bands, and he gave us a great deal compared to other quotes we received in the area. The quality and craftsmanship are beautiful, and we walked away feeling really good about our purchase. If you're looking for solid gold bands and want someone who is transparent, knowledgeable, and fair, definitely ask for Meryvn. Highly recommend!

Im someone who values opinions of those who have an expertise in an area, and he has no problem giving us his thoughts and opinion. As we were figuring out what my girlfriend's ideal ring would be, Mervyn offered honest insight, great guidance, and never made the process feel rushed or overwhelming.(not to mention a great price) He truly took the time to understand what I was looking for and helped bring that vision to life, making what could have been a stressful decision feel exciting and enjoyable instead. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out, and I'm so grateful for his professionalism, care, and attention to detail. I highly recommend Mervyn to anyone looking for a jeweler they can genuinely trust.

Mi vieja had big plans for her engagement ring, after watching many videos, viewing social media posts, and learning more about ring design. She even had the idea of flying out to New York for a consultation! However, as we began to shop around our SoCal area, a close friend recommend Diamond Center to us. During our first visit, Sam and Maria made us feel completely welcome, comfortable, and important. We did not feel as though we were two more customers to them; they really wanted to involve us in the process and seemed to genuinely want to help us achieve our goals. Within the first few minutes of being in their presence and discussing, we glanced at each other with that knowing "this is the place" look. It was both relieving and exciting! After multiple visits, text messages, and phone calls, we had two incredible rings that could not be more perfect. Everything we asked for was made a reality. For the quality of work and services provided at the Diamond Center, you cannot find better prices out there. We will only come to Sam and Maria and recommend Maria and Sam for any jewelry! This place is located in the jewelry district in the downtown LA, which is a pain in the ass to drive to from the South Bay. Additionally, expect to pay for parking; we often used the parking garage across the street, which was cheaper on weekends. However, Diamond Center is well worth the trouble!

We purchased my custom engagement ring, a ring re-design, and a simple white gold band from the prior ring we redesigned. On the first day, Sam spent 2 hours with us helping narrow down the shape of the stone I wanted. I had a very good idea of the shape I wanted but he showed me different stones because he focuses on having the customer fall in love with the stone as opposed to the specs of the stone. Which I LOVE that approach! He also has you look at the stones in natural lighting and fingerprinted (dirtied up), because that's actually what it's going to be 90% of the time. The stones look different in that environment. So on the first visit, we looked at different stones and sizes and refined the exact shape, and L to W ratio. I wanted a specific cut so I ended up custom ordering my stone and color (lab grown per my request). They took the time with me to make minor adjustments while we designed the ring by CAD. They collaborate together as a couple and make sure you get exactly what you want, while making sure your ring will hold up well. We did a little bit of shopping around before we saw Sam and Maria; their prices are fair and honest. You feel like family and know they're going to take care of you. I know I'll be going back again when I want to purchase more 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.

As you know, this is my second transaction with your company. Market fairness, best practices and fair negotiating skills are a hallmark to your superior service. Safety is first when transactions take place. Parking availability, safe access to your location via secure elevators and numerous security cameras, as well as your real time guidance over the phone made my experience worry free. Thank you for escorting me to my vehicle - that was a bonus. The transaction was very stressful free and not pressure driven. You respected the pace I was going to be careful in my thinking process. Even if it took us two hours to conduct our business, you displayed patience and kindness. When I got home and checked my zelle account, me being not tech savvy, I called you to clarify how to access the transfer. On the phone, you assured me that we would get through the process and I had nothing to worry about. Two minutes later after your real-time guidance with your accounting manager and myself, I was able to access the funds. Sorry about that- I gave you a different cell number that was not registered in my zelle account. Again - thank you and your support staff for making my experience a very pleasant one. Be safe always.

Please keep in mind, at the time of the quote, gold was valued at $5100 per ounce and when I visited, it dropped to $4600 per ounce. I came in, and was told it would be $400-$450 because my total carat weight was in actuality 1.58. I let them know about the estimate I received, to which she angrily said, this is why I hate it when they do online quotes, because people don't know what sizes they have. And then she also got upset because she doesn't know who gave me the quote because of the way Yelp profiles are set up. My mistake for the sizing, but it's not even a full 1/10th of a carat weight. An extra $100 for 0.08. I would understand an increase relative to the weight, had it been 2 total carat weight, that's completely reasonable at half a carat per $100. She said it costs $200 to source the settings, and it doesn't include the labor to polish and clean the item. She started stuttering when she was trying to justify the pricing, so I knew she was lying. A quick google search tells you differently, and they have access to warehouse pricing, so let's be real, she chose to arbitrarily charge more because she felt like it. I left and went with another local jeweler, where they gave me the exact same setting for $300. Don't take what they tell you at face value, do your own research, and make sure you don't get swindled by this business trying to take advantage because they think you don't know any better.
