For the ring, I already had my own design, and the owner made it exactly as I designed it. He paid attention to all the little details, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. He also made a cross necklace from the same original ring, and it turned out so cute! I wanted a simple, pretty Tiffany-style look, and I absolutely love it. I had checked with several other jewelry stores before deciding, and his price was the most reasonable. The owner is very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly and patiently. I had quite a few questions because I didn't know much about the process, and he always took the time to explain things again without rushing me. I was originally told the project would take a little over a month, but he said, "I'll do my best," and he ended up finishing everything about two weeks earlier than expected! The store also has a double-lock security system, which I really appreciated. Overall, I'm really happy with the experience and with how my jewelry turned out. I would definitely recommend this place!

Dorano Jewelry did amazing work resizing my opal ring. I had checked with a few other places, and…read moresome were noticeably more hesitant to work with opal because of how heat-sensitive the stone can be. Garen was very upfront, professional, and confident. He explained that he would be using laser welding, which helped minimize heat exposure to the opal, and that gave me a lot more confidence leaving the ring with him. The finished work came out beautiful. The sizing looks clean, the ring fits perfectly, and the price was very reasonable for the care involved. It was definitely worth the longer drive. Thank you again to Garen for taking such good care of my ring. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

We left with no doubts in our mind that my wife would love her ring stack throughout the seasons of life to come because we had pleasure to shop both the band and engagement ring through Oscar.

I was told there was a good chance the stone could crack due to the heat necessary for repairing the band. But, it didn't. This ring is now just like it was. It holds many memories for me and I'm eternally grateful for this skillful repair (same day and reasonable price, too!)
